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.
Safer streets, fairer justice
Policing, sentencing, prisons, rehabilitation. How would you do justice better?
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
Tax the billionaires who own our media
I think we should introduce a new tax on billionaire media owners to fund independent journalism and community-led arts projects. This is needed because right now a handful of rich people have way too much control over the stories that get
Government-funded Ministry of Silly Walks with protected budget
The Department for Silly Walks was defunded in the austerity years and this country has been poorer for it. Literally and spiritually. Walk down any high street and what do you see? Normal walking. Boring, regular, uninspired walking. It is
Replace GDP as a measure of national success with a Queue Satisfaction Index
GDP is a terrible measure of how a country is actually doing. You know what isnt? How the queues are. If the queues are orderly, of reasonable length, and nobody is pushing in, the country is functioning. If the queues are chaotic, too long
Constitutional right to complain about things that are already quite good
It is a fundamental British value to look at something perfectly adequate and declare it not good enough. The bus came on time? Yes but it was a bit cold. The NHS saved your life? Yes but the car park was expensive. The sun is shining?
Bring back the local pub as a funded community hub
Pubs are closing at something like 50 a month and I know people say well thats just the market but these arent just places that sell beer are they. In a lot of villages the pub is literally the only place people actually meet each other fac
Fund libraries properly and open them 7 days a week
Nearly 800 libraries have closed in England since 2010. The ones left are open three days a week with volunteers doing work that trained librarians used to do. We tell kids to read more and close the places where they get free books. For p
Stop giving Lottery money to museums no one visits, start funding local arts centres!
Why are we still giving National Lottery Heritage Fund cash to the same few big national museums that already get massive public funding, when so many local arts centres and community hubs are struggling to keep the lights on? It makes no s
Stricter rules for foreign-owned businesses operating in the UK
Some foreign outfits are coming here, making a racket, and then acting like they own the place. It’s not good for business or our reputation. We need a system that vets foreign investors more thoroughly, not just on their money but on thei
How it works
Build your party
Name it. Give it a colour. Write a tagline. Every great movement starts somewhere, even a fictional one.
Write your policies
Make your case. Explain how it works. Let the community vote, debate, and challenge your ideas.
Vote, debate, fork
Vote on other people's ideas. Disagree kindly. Fork a policy you like and adapt it to your own manifesto.
