As the #LabourParty's commitment to the #greentranstion wavers, and the #carecrisis continues, its worth revisiting this Women's Budget Group report from over a year ago about how re-engineering the economy around #environmental priorities would also underpin a re-enhanced economy of care.
Not all recommendations could be easily/immediately implemented (some require significant structural transformation) but this *does* offer a different policy vision, which we need.
@ChrisMayLA6 surely we *need* significant structural changes? The constant focus on "economic growth" is unsustainable. And energy intensive technologies more so.
(I've not read the whole paper, but that one page summary seems laudable!)
Yes, I agree... but the difficulty is the sort-term horizon of UK politics - however, as you say there is much that is laudable here & much that could be got on with, even if for now big structural changes need to have a political momentum built for them to be navigated
