A good start would be sensible economic and tax policies to drive growth by encouraging start-up businesses and the businesses of the future which must inevitably include green energy. We need this to generate the money that is needed to fund the NHS and other public services and to help the poorest in society.
I am generally, although this is something of an over-simplification, a bit right of centre on economic and tax policies and a bit left of centre on social policies.
The Conservatives haven't done a great job on the economy in recent years, whilst accepting that COVID and Ukraine didn't help. I do give them some credit for bailing out the country during the pandemic, even though it came at a hugh cost and has saddled the country with a huge mountain of debt.
My dilemma is that I don't trust a word Starmer says, as he seems to do a U-turn on everything depending upon the audience he is addressing.
I may end up voting LibDem, although if I do it will be with a distinct lack of enthusiasm. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that one of the major parties comes up with a good manifesto. If Labour's is clearly better then I may have to hold my nose and vote for them, although it doesn't sit happily with me whilst Starmer is the leader.
