To give the security services a carte blanche £12 billion to eavesdrop on all our personal electronic communications, when the problem lies with a minute and easily identifiable minority. Ditto for airport security
To carry on with the myth that globalist, deregulated neo-liberal economics are the future
To persevere with a correction system which clearly doesn't work. (And even dafter to build more prisons)
That educational standards and breadth are as good as forty years ago
To have life-survival products in private hands
To allow largely uncontrolled immigration when the country is already overburdened by social service costs, housing problems and acutely high population density
To extol the virtues of globalism when the planet faces such serious ecological problems
To have remote, all-powerful central government deciding on local and community issues. (And even dafter to make county, police and hospital districts bigger still.)
To allow a tiny minority to get richer and richer, and a sizeable minority to get poorer and poorer
To make billions of cheap, shoddy items we have to soon throw away when the Earth is already in need of more landfill space
