What's the notion:
I was reading the Economist today, whose leader article is about the increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance. According to a new report, co-authored by the government the Wellcome Trust, chaired by Lord O'Neill, the number of deaths because of antibiotic resistance could reach 10 million people per year by 2050, from its current low of 700,000 per year.
This is a pretty huge crisis we're facing as a globe. Even the Economist, that normal bastion of free market orthodoxy, is calling for market intervention and international, political leadership to stem this incoming humanitarian crisis.
There are a variety of solutions that could be done, but currently no one is willing to do them. I think we should.
This sort of long term planning is exactly the sort of thing the Green Party is about. A variety of corrective measures are available to us and I believe we should commit to all of them as the lives and livelihoods of so many people depend on it, not only in Britain, but world wide, and it would be the world's poorest that would be worse effected.
So basically I'm just wanting to know how I transition this into a policy proposal ready to be debated in the floor of conference? What is the procedure? And what makes a good motion?
