Energy and bills
Renewables, nuclear, oil and gas, household bills. Power Britain your way.
Schools are teaching kids to hate Britain. Time to fix it.
Why are we letting schools fill kids' heads with guilt about history instead of pride? Seems like every other week there's some new curriculum point about how terrible this country is. It’s madness. Kids should be learning about the good th
make environmental ed compulsory already
i was talking to a friend who's a teacher and she was saying how she had to fight to get a single lesson on climate change into the curriculum, it's ridiculous that kids aren't being taught about the most pressing issue of our time. she had
Scrap Tuition Fees Already
What's the point of having a supposedly free education system if you're just going to saddle students with a load of debt the minute they graduate, I mean it's not like we're made of money or anything. My proposal is to scrap tuition fees a
Scrap University Tuition Fees Already
I think it's time we scrapped university tuition fees for good, it's a no-brainer that they're pricing out kids from poorer backgrounds and it's just not right. The current system is basically a tax on learning and it's putting people off g
Sort Out Childcare Costs Already
what's the point of government-funded childcare if people are still getting stung with hidden costs, it's like they're just trying to look good without actually doing anything, you know. I think we should just make all childcare costs tra
Teachers aren't therapists: We need proper mental health pros in every Scottish school, not more pressure on staff.
Why do we keep pretending teachers can be everything to everyone? We're expected to be educators, social workers, and now, increasingly, mental health counsellors, all while managing a classroom and preparing lessons. It’s simply not sustai
Why are we still letting kids leave school without knowing how to actually manage money?
Seriously, what’s the logic behind marching teenagers through years of quadratic equations and Shakespearean sonnets but never a single lesson on budgeting, mortgages, or taxes? It’s madness. We're setting them up to fail financially before
Sort Out History Lessons in Schools
My son came home from university the other day and I was talking to him about his courses, he's studying engineering but he's also got to take some general studies, and I was shocked when he told me about the way they're teaching history no
Scrap the bloated education bureaucracy
I'm fed up with the way our education system is being held back by pointless red tape and inefficient bureaucracy, it's like they want to stifle innovation and progress. As someone who's tried to work with schools to set up coding clubs and
Honestly, the student debt crisis is a joke. It’s time we just made university free and stopped pretending it's fair.
It makes me so angry that we're still talking about student debt like it's some kind of personal choice or investment. It's not. It's a massive financial burden that hangs over us for decades, forcing people to pick careers based on potenti
Enough with the endless Ofsted meddling, let schools actually teach!
It drives me mad how much time teachers waste jumping through hoops for Ofsted. Every year it’s a new initiative, a new way to measure things that can’t really be measured. It’s all about ticking boxes and making the inspectors happy, not a
Enough with the endless testing - kids need actual learning, not exam cramming!
I'm sick to death of hearing about league tables and SATs results dominating every education conversation. It feels like we're just churning out kids who are brilliant at ticking boxes for Ofsted but have no idea how to think critically or
Enough With The Testing Treadmill For Kids, It's Not Working
I’m so fed up with seeing kids being put through the wringer with endless tests. It feels like all they do now is prep for exams that don't really tell you anything useful about their actual ability or potential. My own kids have come home
Stop Dumbing Down Maths & English in Schools – We Need Real Skills!
It drives me absolutely mad seeing the focus in schools shift away from core academic subjects towards what feels like a tick-box exercise in ‘wellbeing’ or some vague notion of ‘life skills’. Of course, those things matter, but not at the
Scrap Uni Fees for Trades
I was talking to a kid the other day who just left school and he wanted to be an electrician, but his parents were worried about the debt he'd be in if he went to college. I told him about my own son who did an apprenticeship at the local g
Scrap GCSEs for Local Skills Training
I think we should get rid of GCSEs and replace them with local skills training that actually prepares kids for the world of work. This is needed because the current system is failing to give young people the skills they need to get a job an
Scrap the nonsense in schools
I'm sick of hearing about how our schools are failing, it's all about the wrong priorities if you ask me. I see kids coming into my DIY store who can't even use a tape measure, but they can tell you all about climate change and whatnot. Don
Scrap University Fees for Business Courses
I think we should scrap university fees for business courses, it's a no-brainer. The reason is simple, we need more people with practical skills in business, and the current system is pricing out talented individuals who can't afford the de
Every Child Deserves a Personalised Learning Plan
I've always believed that our education system should be about nurturing the unique talents and abilities of each child, rather than just catering to those who are deemed 'special needs'. The current system is far too narrow and often relia
Schools to be granted full autonomy over budgets and curricula
I think it's time we stopped micromanaging our schools and let the people on the ground make the decisions, they're the ones who actually know what they're doing after all. The current system is far too prescriptive, with the government dic
