Voting systems, House of Lords, devolution, MP accountability. What's actually broken?
Enough With The Windmills Already: Let's Get Serious About Nuclear Power
Seriously, how much more are we going to spend on these giant, bird-chopping windmills that only work half the time anyway? And the solar farms take up acres of good land. We're chucking money at tech that just isn't reliable enough to powe
Enough with the Green Guilt-Tripping: Let's Actually Cut Red Tape for Eco-Innovation
I'm sick to death of the endless stream of climate doom and the accompanying moral lectures. It feels like every time you turn around, there's some new regulation or tax designed to make life harder, supposedly for the planet. Meanwhile, th
Enough with the greenwashing, let's actually help our high streets breathe
We need a national program to subsidise the conversion of empty high street shops into community green spaces and urban gardens. This isn't just about looking pretty, it's about tackling a few real problems at once. Our town centres are dyi
Enough with the plastic tat - time to make producers pay for packaging waste!
Seriously, why are we still drowning in single-use plastic packaging when the companies making it barely lift a finger to deal with the mess? It’s like letting someone trash their own house and then expecting the neighbours to clean it up.
Packaging is a joke. Government needs to make supermarkets cut the plastic crap.
Just the other day, I was trying to unpack the weekly shop, and honestly, the amount of plastic was infuriating. My daughter, Lily, was trying to 'help' by sorting the recycling, and she just looked at the pile of trays and film and asked w
Enough with the Tree-Hugging Nonsense, Let's Actually Clean Things Up
It’s baffling how much energy goes into symbolic gestures about the environment while actual pollution continues unchecked. We’re lectured about recycling the same plastic bottle for the hundredth time when massive industrial polluters get
Scrap the Council's ghastly concrete 'public art' and plant trees instead!
I was walking past the old market site the other day, you know, the one they've tarted up with that ridiculously expensive metal monstrosity? Honestly, it just looks like a giant rusty paperclip. All that money, and what do we get? A blight
Honestly, all this recycling feels like a waste of time if companies keep dumping plastic on us
I swear, every time I unpack an online order, I just stare at the mountain of cardboard and plastic wrap that held two tiny items. It’s beyond a joke. Even with all our efforts in Bristol to sort our recycling, you hear stories about how mu
Stop Dithering About Renewables - Let's Actually Build Them
We need to fast-track the development and installation of onshore wind and solar farms across the country. This isn't some radical idea; it's about finally getting serious with our energy security and meeting climate targets without bankrup
Scrap Net Zero targets, they're bankrupting us and ruining the countryside
The government needs to immediately scrap the legally binding net zero targets. These targets are completely unrealistic and are costing ordinary people a fortune through higher energy bills and taxes. We're being forced to pay for expensiv
Enough is enough! We need a real plan to clean up our rivers, not just more platitudes.
We need to bring water companies under public control, at least temporarily, to force them to invest properly in our infrastructure. For years, they've been allowed to dump sewage into our rivers and coastlines with barely a slap on the wri
Scrap the Green Belt to Save the Planet
I was cycling through the countryside last weekend and saw all these fields just sitting empty, it got me thinking about how we use land in this country. We've got a housing crisis and people can't afford to live anywhere, but at the same t
Britain should reclaim sovereign control of its own weather. Enough is enough.
Last summer it was 34 degrees in Surrey. Thirty-four. In Surrey. I was born in 1962 and I can tell you categorically that this is not British weather. British weather is 19 degrees and overcast with the threat of a shower. British weather i
End peat extraction for gardening compost by 2027 and fund the transition for UK growers
UK peatlands store around 3 billion tonnes of carbon. That is more than all the forests in Britain, France, and Germany combined. Healthy peatlands slowly accumulate carbon. Drained peatlands release it, continuously, for decades. The gove
A legal right to clean rivers, enforceable by citizens
In 2023, water companies in England discharged sewage into rivers and seas for over 3.6 million hours. The Environment Agency, which is supposed to prevent this, has had its budget cut by 60% since 2010 and now conducts fewer inspections th
Sort Out Recycling Once and For All
I'm sick of putting stuff in the recycling bin and wondering if it's actually getting recycled or just ending up in some landfill in another country. It's like nobody knows what's going on and it's all a bit of a joke. I've got a mate who w
Water companies that dump sewage should lose their licence, not get a fine they can afford
Thames Water discharged raw sewage into rivers for 3.6 million hours in 2023. They were fined a fraction of their revenue. The fine is not a deterrent. It is a business expense. How this should work: 1. Every water company gets a sewage d
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
Replace GDP with a genuine progress indicator that accounts for ecological cost
GDP goes up when we cut down a forest. It goes up when we treat the respiratory diseases caused by the pollution from cutting it down. It goes up when we pay lawyers to argue about who is liable. At no point does GDP register that we have l
Climate Change Is Real, Stop Blaming Brussels for the Heatwave
Seriously, blaming the EU for a heatwave? That’s the kind of daft, populist nonsense that’s held us back for years. This idea about reclaiming sovereign control of the weather is frankly embarrassing. It’s not 1973 anymore, it’s the era of
