Election Reflection
A letter from the Social Justice Party’s candidate for Scarborough and Whitby and National Secretary Asa Jones reflecting on the General Election and the next steps for the party
We are a group of people who are profoundly unhappy with the way our country is being governed. For over half a century, the policies of both Conservative and Labour Governments have weakened our society, caused immense physical and mental hardship to working-class people and have sucked money and opportunities out of our communities. During a time of economic crisis, the profits of the rich are skyrocketing whilst more and more people struggle to pay their bills and feed themselves. We believe that all of the major UK Political Parties now embrace policies that benefit mega wealthy individuals and corporations and put profit before people and our planet.
The established political elite of this country are engaged in a conspiracy to convince us that no alternative exists to their economic practices – that leave the majority of people struggling to get by.
We want to elect representatives who will challenge this broken economic philosophy and offer the UK electorate a real alternative.
We want to offer optimism and hope
