It has been a few days now since we asked CoffeeHousers to put forward their questions for Theresa May. We’ve since picked out the best, which have now been put to the shadow work and pensions secretary. She’ll get back to us in the next few days.
Anyway, here are the questions:
John Moss
“Is a time of financial crisis when many people are losing their jobs not the best time to push through radical reform of welfare to gain public trust in the system and get control of cost.”
Anton
“Aren’t tax credits for married couples simply forms of social engineering by social conservatives, trying to impose their own values on the rest of us?
As there are lots of new Conservative MPs likely to be elected at the next election, will we see a socially conservative tone of government, or a socially liberal one where the state won’t purposefully try to interfere in how we lead our lives?”
Colin
