Also think if you are going to advocate for shorter working weeks in the future, it should focus more on shorter working days: you should be able to drop off & pick up your kids without needing to pay for childcare!

I would like to see something that at least splits the council tax cost between tenants and landlords too - especially in a housing bubble a lot of people who arent wealthy are still renting in properties that would be valued for significant sums

We can't drop a 4 day week. Needs better messaging, so work on that.

Things like 4 day week, free broadband and 2b trees were able to be spun to put off voters whereas things such as industrial green rev didn’t get enough traction because the press couldn’t find a negative line so no one knew about it

The Green Industrial Revolution was an awesome policy, job creation across STEM in areas that need it plus all the ancillary jobs & business that comes with it. I'd have been screaming that from the roof tops

The "Bannon Playbook" recognises that most not-voters can we won around with very simple but clear platitudes. "Our Money Anyway" "Make America Great Again" "Get Brexit Done" Corbyn was way to considered. Trying to explain to people that Brexit is more complex than Yes or No.

Need to be careful with council tax reform though. For instance I live in ground floor of a semi detached which was converted to flats, pay 55% of take home in rent. If council tax reevaluate I'd have to move out (along with many many people)

I was surprised to see the 4 day week appear because I just don't think enough work has gone into preparing the ground for it, in terms of talking about work/life balance, answering 'do-what-you-love'-ness, research on productivity etc.

common theme with 2019 manifesto tbh - lots of huge and admirable policies that sort of came out of nowhere with no build-up. people saw it at best as a fantasy shopping list and at worst as a cynical vote grab

Replace council tax entirely with a landlord paid land value tax on their unearned income.
