Were living through The Breakdown. A time of enormous political upheaval and opinion. But many of us feel ill-equipped to truly understand and debate the issues currently rocking our world
Austerity: essential reduction of national debt or devastating cuts to public spending
Tax cuts: control over your money or threat to the welfare system
Privatisation: Crucial efficiency-boosting competition or the ruthless destruction of our public services
Immigration: a strain on our country or a crucial part of our economy
Brexit: a chance to take back control or taking us to the brink of disaster
Plastic: ban or recycle
At last, here is a sane voice of reason that cuts through the noise. That will give you all the tools to work out whats happening and why and then do something about it.
