Ahead of the budget, the Independent Alliance is asking the Chancellor to:
1. Scrap the 2-child benefits cap
2. Reverse cuts to winter fuel
3. Tax wealth
4. Protect welfare
5. Invest in a greener future
We have the means to end poverty. We just need the political will.

Scrapping the £2 bus fare cap is a disgraceful decision that will harm the poorest in society, and discourage public transport at a time when it is needed more than ever.
Why is the government punishing people for trying to get to work?
"I don't know exactly what a prayer is.
I do know how to pay attention,how to fall down
into the grass, how to kneel in the grass,
how to be idle and blessed,how to stroll through the fields
which is what I have been doing all day.
Tell me, what else should I have done?"~M Oliver

I can hear the sizzle of newborn stars, and know anything of meaning, of the fierce magic emerging here. I am witness to flexible eternity, the evolving past, and I know we will live forever, as dust or breath in the face of stars, in the shifting pattern of winds.

“Sorry for my late reply! I’d momentarily just given up and hoped everything would go away if I ignored it, but it didn’t so here we are…”
