From climate to culture, every generation inherits the choices of the last. Rank these obligations by how strongly you feel we owe them to those who come after us.
Put the items in your preferred order.

A Liveable Planet
Leaving behind a world that isn't overheating, with rivers fit to swim in and wildlife still worth protecting. Arguably the foundation everything else rests on.

An Honest National Story
Passing down a truthful account of Empire, industry and conflict, without sanitising or self-flagellating. Future citizens deserve the full picture to make their own judgements.

Solvent Public Services
Not lumbering our children with collapsing hospitals, unpayable debt and a state pension that's quietly disappeared. The bill is coming due either way.

Functioning Democracy
Handing over a Parliament, judiciary and press that still command public confidence, rather than a cynical wasteland where nobody believes anyone.

Affordable Homes
Ending the quiet scandal that owning a modest flat now requires inheritance or six figures. A generation locked out of housing is a generation locked out of stability.
