LONDON - The winner of Britain’s Dec. 12 election will get to decide what to do about Brexit, how to run the world’s fifth-largest economy and which public service reforms to prioritize.
The Liberal Democrats want to cancel Brexit altogether if they win a majority, and if they fall short would support a second referendum. Labour has set out plans for a large increase in spending on both public services and infrastructure. It has pledged to increase tax on high earners and cut corporations’ tax breaks.
The Labour Party have gone further, arguing for the expansion of free public services to include personal care for the elderly, higher education, school meals and bus services for young people. Labour have also argued for widespread nationalization of the water, electricity and rail industries.
