Broadband should be free to all at the point of use
The creeping privatisation into our public services like the Housing Executive & Translink should be stopped
There should be an overall review into the PSNI as an organisation - including but not limited to their handling of cases and the practices & culture within the organisation with a view to taking the necessary steps to improve public confidence in them
The findings from the public enquiry into Invest NI should be enacted
There needs to be statutory support & funding for organisations to help with the recovery from the pandemic
A Northern Mutual Bank should be developed which moves away from the privatised system that currently exists & towards a democratised system that gives each person involved a say in how our money can be used for our benefit & the benefit of our region
Translink should be replaced with a public transport system that is free at the point of use
Lough Neagh should be brought into public ownership (1)
The electricity grid should be brought into public ownership
Comments
  • Public ownership does not necessarily mean protection. Lough Neagh needs to be protected and public ownership does not mean that natural resources and space are protected. Lough Neagh needs to be protected as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and it is currently in a bad way ecologically and environmentally.
