Left-wing policy’s lack of action doesn’t pay off

La Gauche

Barack Obama, Olaf Scholz, François Hollande, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Kier Starmer, Anthony Albanese, Pedro Sanchez, Justin Trudeau do not propose a vision. They do almost nothing for the people. Their only quality is that they’re not as bad as the others. It leads nowhere, gives no direction.

This strategy doesn’t pay off, and they lose the elections that follow their mandates. They disappoint those who voted for them. They don’t look after the most disadvantaged, they don’t redistribute wealth. They don’t know what is acceptable and what is not in conflicts: Ukraine, Gaza, etc. They don’t do enough to preserve the environment, which is today’s major challenge.

Many people vote then for parties that support the billionaires, who are responsible for the fall in living standards and the decline in public services, who are the executioners. It’s even worse!

People should be able to vote for ideas rather than people, with the citizens’ initiative referendum for example. Representatives should also be selected at random.
