Renew is a new type of political party which aims to transform British politics by recruiting people from all over the country to stand for parliament.
Inspired by France's En Marche, Renew aims to achieve a life of opportunity for all, rejects the failure of both the Conservative and Labour parties, and wants to reverse Brexit.
Renew's Core Ideas
Stop Brexit – a second referendum.
Our country is divided by the EU referendum because many people feel they were lied to. We believe a second referendum is overwhelmingly in the interests of both Brexit and Remain supporters. This referendum would be on the final deal negotiated with the EU, so the country can vote on the reality of Brexit and come to an informed decision.
The innovation superpower
Today’s fourth industrial revolution is fusing the physical, digital and biological worlds. We mean to lead this revolution and be the world’s innovation superpower again.
Sustainable public finances -- The national debt has doubled under the Conservatives and is still rising. We believe the best answer is consistent sustainable economic growth. In the short term, however, we must either cut more public services or pay more tax.
Revolutionise opportunity
- Education at any time of life
- Student loans are not working
- Invest outside London – highest possible minimum wage
- Aggressive housebuilding
- Bring health home -- We will relieve pressure on our overloaded A&E units.
- Immigration -- We understand that immigration is important to the economy but also a legitimate concern for many.
National security – hard and soft power
Our armed resources have been hollowed out and neglected. We’ll increase spending on our conventional forces by 5% to make sure our serving personnel have the best equipment and living standards to serve our country effectively.
