Does the UK need a commitment to a 'universal basic infrastructure' to tackle inequality & the vast unevenness in the provision of publics services across the country?

It would be a potential game changer fro the UK, but unlikely to be adopted when current or similar fiscal rules (probity) donate policy discussion.
