Now consensus is required around a new leader. This leader must have managed his private affairs exceptionally well, otherwise the media will turn the people against him/her. It requires a leader who can promise security for everyone and a competitive knowledge economy.
It is tragic that the media make it so that it is more important that a person has paid his tributes to the government than that he is for the good and bad of the majority of the people. But that's how it is.
Then this leader must either be able to promise full employment through e.g. an expansion of the public sector or be able to lead in proof that the Alliance is not for full employment either, but only for worse, more low-paid jobs.
The leader must be able to show that the Alliance's policies do not promote the interests of the middle class, but rather wipe out the middle class. The leader must be able to make the people understand how the social safety net not only benefits him/herself in times of weakness but also his/her friends and relatives who may not always be as strong as himself/herself.
The leader must improve conditions for both workers and academics. The leader must ensure that both education and work pay off so that we have a competitive knowledge economy, because it is with knowledge that we compete for jobs.
The leader must be able to solve the housing problem so that we get homes for all wallet and household sizes.
No one should ever be completely without compensation. Homelessness is not acceptable. The leader must be able to create a society with security for all and an economy that is competitive.
