Catharine Arakelian's Friends

Gifts Received

Catharine Arakelian has not received any gifts yet

Describe yourself, briefly: Politically, I align with feminists, pluralists, socialists. Socially, I am an advocate for people without voices: older, poorer or more vulnerable than myself.

What do you do, mostly?: Dementia Care Trainer by profession. Local activism for a wide variety of groups by inclination.

What matters most in the world?: Looking after each other - particularly, respecting, valuing and loving each other as we all get older.

If you were Prime Minister what would you do?: Invest in green technology and green jobs by reducing tax burden and providing cheap loans. Encourage micro-generation by increasing the feed-in tariff for householders willing to generate their own energy. Combine social care and health budgets together to create a National Health Service. Build 1.5 million new affordable homes and 1.5 million social homes. Reduce income inequalities over the next generation ( 30-50 years) through moving toward a citizen's wage ( starting with the unpaid care workforce). Embed the notion of gender parity in the constitutional structures of all public bodies. Move swiftly to a PR system of voting for the House of Commons and a fully elected second chamber.

What does Soft Power say to you?: The power of participation, persuasion, negotiation, mediation, consensus and compromise, transparency and accountability. The antithesis of coercion, power by brute strength and guile.
