According to the Office for National Statistics 29% of households in the United Kingdom are single person.
And yet public policies are not addressing this issue (talking all the time about families).
An interesting project I am looking at is taking public policies (transport, housing, public order, health, education, social security) and putting them through the prism of a single-person household and considering how they can adjusted to make them more appealing (for instance in terms of taxation and expenditure).
The key is of course to design the prism correctly.
"...debilitating loneliness, fierce egoism, proud individualism..."
Solve those aspects of the single-household experience (as applied to public policy) and you will get their votes.
