So many manifestos — who has the answers?
Create the party
you would vote for.
Borrow the best policies, fix the ones you don't like, and craft a manifesto that finally makes sense.
The planet we leave behind
Net zero, rivers, rewilding, air quality. Write the environment policy you wish someone had.
Enough of this meddling! Stop blaming foreign wars for a weak pound.
It’s always something, isn’t it? First the pandemic, now some skirmish halfway across the world, and suddenly the economy’s in trouble. What’s really going on is that we’ve got a government that’s choking the life out of small businesses wi
sort out the recycling mess already
What's the point of having all these different bins if the council's just gonna send it all to the same place anyway, I mean I've seen the blokes chucking everything in one truck, so why bother. I was talking to a customer the other day, a
Decolonise History Lessons Now
I'm tired of hearing politicians talk about the glory days of the British Empire like it's something to be proud of. As a junior doctor I see the impact of systemic inequality every day, and it's rooted in our history. We need to teach kids
Let the Market Clean Up Pollution
I'm not convinced that slapping corporations with massive fines is the best way to tackle pollution. Instead of relying on bureaucratic penalties, we should be leveraging the power of the market to drive environmental responsibility. By int
Kids need digital literacy not just bans
I propose we introduce compulsory digital literacy classes in schools to teach children how to navigate social media safely and critically. This is needed because simply restricting access to social media won't address the underlying issues
Enough is Enough with All This Green Nonsense — Bring Back Common Sense!
I’m sick to death of seeing perfectly good bits of land churned up for these endless wind farms and solar panels. You walk down the high street and half the shops are boarded up, but we’ve got millions being poured into projects that don’t
Finally, a real plan to fund science — not just more tinkering
We need a new national science fund, managed by a public body with actual scientists and educators on its board, not just politicians and business types. This fund would exclusively support long-term, curiosity-driven research in universiti
Stop the revolving door for petty criminals. It's not working.
I was waiting for my train at King's Cross last week and saw a young man, no older than 18, being led away in handcuffs by two rather weary-looking police officers. He'd apparently shoplifted a few bottles of expensive whiskey. It’s the thi
Enough with the slap on the wrist for corporations trashing our rivers!
I was down by the Avon last weekend, trying to enjoy a bit of sunshine, and saw a patch of water near the industrial estate that was just… oily. Rainbow sheen, dead bits of plant life floating in it. It made me so angry. How many times have
Scrap the HS2 White Elephant
I'm proposing we cancel the HS2 project and divert the funds to upgrading our existing rail network, it's a no-brainer when you look at the costs and benefits. The current plans are going to soak up over a hundred billion pounds, which coul
Ranked Choice Voting is a no-brainer, why aren't we doing it already?
We should implement ranked choice voting for all elections. This system allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference, eliminating the need for spoiler candidates and ensuring that winners have broader support than under our curre
Frankly, it’s past time we stopped talking and actually put proper digital protections in place for our children.
Frankly, how can we possibly expect children to navigate the digital world we’ve created for them without putting some serious safeguards in place? It just seems like we've let things get completely out of hand, hoping for the best when it
Scrap the pointless short sentences for minor crimes
What's the point of chucking someone in prison for a few weeks for shoplifting or minor assault, it's just a waste of taxpayers' money and doesn't solve anything. I mean think about it, these short sentences don't rehabilitate anyone, they
Let's Get Proper People in Charge of Town Hall Jobs
It’s all well and good talking about diplomats, chuck, but what about the people running things right here in Grimsby? We’ve got council positions that seem to go to whoever’s got the loudest voice or the right mates, not necessarily the on
Stop Wasting Our Money. Fund Our NHS Properly.
This sounds like another load of politician talk. They always say they want to fund the NHS, but then they don’t. This idea of bonds sounds complicated. Why do we need private money involved? The NHS is supposed to be for us, not for making
Protecting Cymru's Rivers, Not Just a Fine
As someone who's spent years teaching Welsh history, I've seen how our country's natural beauty has been exploited and damaged. The issue of corporate pollution in our rivers is no exception. I was dismayed to read about the state of the Av
Stop Wasting Time on Unaccountable Diplomats
We should introduce a new system of parliamentary approval for all major diplomatic appointments, so we can hold these people to account for their actions. I'm fed up with the idea that some lord or other can just swan off to a fancy emba
Enough with the Net Zero Madness, Let's Get Real About Energy
I’m sick to death of hearing about Net Zero targets that seem to ignore basic physics and economics. We're meant to just wave a magic wand and have this perfect green energy system overnight, while people freeze and industries collapse. It’
Scrap Soft Sentencing for Repeat Offenders
I was reading in the local paper about a bloke who'd been arrested for the fifth time for burglary in our area, and I just about lost my temper. This guy's been in and out of court for years, always getting let off with a slap on the wrist,
Politicians bickering while the country's going to rack and ruin. What a surprise.
Why do we even bother with these by-elections? It's all the same old waffle from people who've never done a day's honest work in their lives. They talk about the issues, but they never actually fix anything. Just more hot air and promises t
