I think this period is a great opportunity to rethink how things are done

Covering:

1. Our impact on the environment;
2. Taxes (a switch to a high-tax system would be a good move, not Corbyn's anti-success tax the rich approach, but a fair, high tax system for all)
3. Focusing on others, a more community minded approach.

Loads of opportunity to use this as a trigger for meaningful change.
