Family first

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040 I will have a 19, a 24 and 26 year old. I hope that we are able to stay close as a family. We would be able to live in close proximity with each other so I can help my children start their own lives. House prices are more reasonable so they don't have to move far away. I can see them often, child mind my grandchildren and travel with them. I don't want my children to be swamped with debt from huge mortgages, I want them to be able to continue their careers after having children and not have to give up work because of lack of affordable childcare. I us to able to travel together both locally and on ferry to France and UK without it being cheaper to get a flight to Spain for a week than stay locally for a weekend. I want our local government to put people first, building communities instead of just houses. I want my children not to have to worry about going to the doctors because it's too expensive or where will their children go to school because there isn't enough spaces for the amount of houses built. I want my children to be happy and to be able to make memories with them. I want my future to be family!

The transformation of Europe into a truly borderless Europe has become possible because the events of climate change are making people, businessmen and politicians realise that no region bounded by imaginary borders can cope with change without a concerted effort. Human dignity has been restored over economic/political values and the good winds are blowing beyond Europe to other parts of the globe.

That there is a weapon system that allows no one to win a war. The military should be there to fight individual criminals and syndicates. Everyone should stay in their countries they were born and raised in and solve any problems there and get the opportunity to work in other countries but no citizenship

By 2040, I would see an open and accessible Europe. By this I mean peace, developed means of transport and an economy so is in balance. It is natural that Sweden has switched to Euro and that we can transport ourselves by high-speed train through many of the larger countries.

First of all, to achieve the independence of Catalonia. Once obtained, to maintain a close and sincere collaboration with the European Community. To keep us, as far as possible, out of the influences of the U.S.A. To achieve a strong and peaceful Europe . To control and prevent the Muslim invasion . The economy should be flourishing and reach all levels of society . I would also like to see a liberal democracy in which the main priorities are respect for the planet and people . I would like to see honesty at all levels , controlling the problem of traffickers , pharmaceutical industry and weapons manufacturing .
