How? You don't just wave a magic wand and make them cough up their tax. There has to be a strategy for approaching this. What is it, exactly?

There's 900,000 zero hour contract jobs, people are going to foodbanks because they can't afford to buy food as they've had there benefit sanctioned or aren't getting enough hours at work. The NHS is on its knees as the funding isn't being put in. Homelessness in on the rise.
Yes, I'm well aware of all of this. And the only way to fix it is to be elected to government. And the only way to be elected to government is to have a competent leader capable of articulating precise and realistic policies. Not platitudes. Policies.

I'm a lifelong Labour voter from a family of trade unionists. My uncle was a shop steward. The overwhelming majority of my friends are Labour members. Some are Labour councillors. An old, old friend (who I admittedly lost touch with) is now a Labour MP and is currently serving in Corbyn's shadow cabinet. For me to dislike Labour would be to dislike everything that I am, and everything that I know.
I don't know what the strategy is but they need to come up with one quick because if the Tories call a general election in the Spring it could be a thrashing.
If the Tories get Brexit wrong and don't have an election till 2020 it could hurt them.
