I did say to my husband (left leaning!) today that bearing in mind Conservative/Labour between them pulled in 84%? of the vote, and as a country we are facing probably the most difficult 2 years, why not put party politics aside and work together for the good of the people they represent? Let's start with the Brexit negotiations. Get a cross party Conservative/Labour negotiating group together. With the size of the vote the 2 parties hold that's a strong mandate. Bring in MPs with knowledge of the particular problems of the farming/fishing communities to look after their interests?The governments in Europe manage perfectly well without majorities through cross party cooperation so why not here too? I'm not suggesting a formal coalition - that would be a step too far but for goodness sake there is common ground between them and it may be the opportunity to really sort things out. Maybe then the abuse would stop because I am sick to the back teeth of it. Get rid of all the ridiculous sound bites for political gain. Make sure policies are properly discussed and explained properly to the public without stirring up hysteria (That would upset the trolls). Most people probably want what I want ; a good education for our children/grandchildren; health and social care when it is needed; safe communities and being able to go about your day without fear; thriving economy. As I said probably far too sensible but we can dream!</blockquote>
