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.
Fix how we're governed
Voting systems, House of Lords, devolution, MP accountability. What's actually broken?
Enough of this woke nonsense in schools! Kids need real skills, not CRT drivel.
Honestly, it drives me mad seeing what passes for education these days. All this focus on identity politics and virtue signalling instead of equipping kids with actual knowledge and skills. My son’s school keeps talking about "decolonising
Right, enough is enough. Let's properly fund our schools and pay teachers what they're worth.
My proposal is to establish a dedicated Scottish Education Fund, ring-fenced from general taxation, specifically to increase teacher salaries, reduce class sizes, and invest in modern learning resources. This fund would be overseen by a boa
Why are we still testing kids like it's the 1950s?
What’s the point of cramming kids full of facts just to see if they can regurgitate them a week later? It’s like training a parrot. We’re meant to be preparing them for life, not just for the next exam. These constant tests don't actually t
Seriously, are we still teaching kids about the Industrial Revolution like it's Ancient Rome?
Why are we still dedicating so much curriculum time to historical events that, frankly, are the root cause of most of our current environmental mess? It’s like giving a lecture on the benefits of smoking while simultaneously trying to treat
Scrap Uni Fees for Working Class Kids
I think we should scrap university fees for kids from working-class backgrounds, it's the only way to level the playing field. The current system is rigged against them, with wealthy kids getting all the advantages and poor kids being price
Why Are We Still Funneling Cash into Bureaucratic Black Holes for Schools?
What's the point of funneling millions into an education system that seems designed to churn out compliant paper-pushers rather than critical thinkers? We pour money into endless layers of administration, consultants, and top-down initiativ
Make apprenticeships pay properly, not just for the kids doing the work.
We need a new policy that makes companies pay apprentices a proper living wage, not just the bare minimum. The current system means young people are doing skilled work, fixing people's leaky pipes or wiring their houses, but they’re barely
We need to stop treating schools like a political football and actually support teachers, not just make grand announcements
It always gets me how every new government, every new minister, thinks they’ve found the magic bullet for schools. They come in, announce some grand plan — often something totally disconnected from what teachers actually deal with day to da
Electing police commissioners? What a joke. Time to get rid of them.
Why are we electing politicians to oversee the police in the first place? It’s just another layer of bureaucracy and political posturing that doesn’t make anyone safer. The whole system is a mess, and this latest development just proves it.
Fund Schools Not Egos
I propose that we introduce a new law that requires all politicians to publish a fully costed and detailed education policy before they can run for office, so we can see exactly what they plan to do with our schools. This is needed becaus
Teach the Whole Story in Schools
I've been thinking about the way we teach history in schools and I think we need to make sure we're giving kids a proper understanding of our past, the good and the bad. I'm not saying we should be ashamed of what we've done, but we should
Why are we still arguing about basic decency a decade on?
You see these stories about Jo Cox's sister talking about common ground. It makes you wonder, doesn't it? We're a country that supposedly prides itself on politeness and community, yet we seem to be more divided than ever. It's like we've f
Why Are We Still Paying For Kids To Memorise Useless Facts?
Seriously, why are we forcing kids to memorise dates or the exact population of Botswana when they can look that up in two seconds on their phone? It’s like teaching someone to churn butter when we have electric mixers. We're not preparing
Scrap Free Uni for Rich Kids
I think we should stop giving free university tuition to kids from rich families, it's a waste of taxpayer money. We need to focus on helping ppl who actually need it, like low income families who can't afford to send their kids to uni. Rig
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
Why are we still teaching Welsh history like a footnote in England's story? Time to fix this.
Seriously, why are we still forcing kids to learn about the Norman conquest of England before they can even tell you who Owain Glyndŵr was? It’s like we expect them to understand the foundations of their own country before they’ve even been
Teach Scotland's Story, Not Just Britain's
I think it's time we took a step back and looked at how we're teaching history in Scotland's schools. The current curriculum can be a bit too focused on the UK as a whole, rather than Scotland's unique experience. We need to make sure our k
Environmental Ed: Get Biz On Board
I was talking to a colleague who's got kids in school and she was saying how they're not really learning about the practical side of environmental issues, like how businesses can make a difference. It's all about theory and not enough about
Stop Wasting Kids' Time With Eco-Claptrap, Focus On Real Skills
Yeah I read that bit about teachers fighting to get climate change lessons in. Honestly, I reckon they’ve got bigger things to worry about. Kids leaving school should know how to do a proper job, not just how to hug a tree. My mate Dave’s l
Teach Britain's Real Story
I'm fed up with the way history is taught in schools, it's all about what we did wrong, never what we did right. I've had customers coming into the DIY store, real people, talking about how their kids are being taught to be ashamed of Brita
