Don’t forget the environment
It is pointed out that there is now almost no mention of the problems of global warming, yet the recession is a relatively short term problem compared with climate change! What can we do to re-build an economy that doesn’t rely on oil? And alongside that, a number of Netmums members ask what practical suggestions are there for improving rented and council housing? For example, for many families in rented housing, can we set higher standards for landlords to make our homes more energy efficient?"

Cost of living
Netmums members are concerned about the cost of living and point to the fact that Council tax has been going up each year, and now wages are going down and it’s very hard to make ends meet. Do you expect local council tax to continue to rise, or can something be done about that? Will you look at raising the thresholds, for tax credits and so on, to take account of cost of living rises?"

Education and Retraining
Mums who want to study, but aren’t on benefits get no financial support to help them. When there are fewer jobs to go around, isn’t now a great time to be helping more parents get new skills and training? Shouldn’t help be available to anyone on a low income to do this?"

And for working mums...
Will working mums be affected more by the recession? Some of us feel vulnerable as our employers look to make redundancies - sometimes we have to take time off when our children are sick, we need to be able to work at set times, and more of us are on short contracts or are freelancers.
How can you help to stop women being disproportionately affected? What will be done to keep this valuable 50% of the population contributing to building the UK economy?"

"Very many people feel there's an inherent unfairness in a system that appears to leave people on benefits better off than working couples. Can more be done to tackle benefit fraud and re-balance the benefit system so low income families don't feel they are being untreated fairly and more people are encouraged to work knowing that they will be better off in employment than on benefits?"

Supporting working families
So many Netmums feel that they want to spend more time with their children when they are young, but this isn’t a real choice for lots of us. Is there not a way to better support families on low incomes, whether one or two parents are working, and whether it’s by choice or because of redundancy that one parent isn’t working?
It’s becoming more of a struggle to survive – for some of us the sums don’t add up, and helping families to look after their children better would be a good alternative."
