scrap business rates for pubs
what's the point of having a system that punishes pubs for having a decent location, I mean my business rates have gone up just because the area's gotten a bit more popular, it's like they want us to fail. I was talking to one of my regul
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
Stop messing with patient records, just fund the GPs instead.
We need to mandate that all GP practices have a robust, fully integrated electronic patient record system that talks seamlessly to secondary care. This isn't about abstract data concerns; it's about making sure the right information is wher
The housing crisis isn't just about numbers, it's about building proper homes for our young people, not just ugly boxes on fields.
My biggest frustration with housing is seeing young families, including my own children’s friends, being priced out of the very towns and villages they grew up in. It impacts community so much when young people have to move miles away just
Scrap the licence fee already
I'm sick of being forced to pay for the BBC just because I own a telly, it's like they think I'm made of money or something. Every year it goes up and up, and for what, so they can spout their lefty nonsense and make programmes that nobody
Scrap Stop and Search, it's a racist mess
I was at the Brixton market last weekend and saw a kid, no more than 15, getting stopped and searched by the police. He was just standing there, minding his own business, and the next thing you know he's being told to empty his pockets. I'v
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
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
End automatic early release for 'short' sentences - brings the whole system into disrepute.
The current system of automatically releasing prisoners serving less than four years after serving just half their sentence needs to end. It’s a policy born of a misguided attempt to manage prison overcrowding, not justice. Margaret and I w
Prioritise Pints And Pensions: Britain First, Then Brussels
I can see the point about looking after your own patch first. It’s common sense, really, much like making sure the roof isn’t leaking before you start worrying about the neighbour’s garden. Our own communities are where we see the real impa
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
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
Justice system failing rural Wales
I'm sick of seeing kids from round here getting locked up for minor stuff while city folk get off scot-free for worse crimes. It's like the system's stacked against us, no understanding of how things work in rural areas. I've seen lads get
Enough with the flimsy greenwashing, let's actually fund real environmental stuff
I was walking by the river last week and saw this huge pile of rubbish someone had just dumped. Plastic bottles, old tyres, bits of carpet – the lot. It’s depressing, isn’t it? You see these big government announcements about net zero and c
Stop Apologising For Britain On Climate Change
I'm fed up with all this fuss about climate change being some kind of global problem that we can't do anything about. We need to stop blaming ourselves and start taking control of our own destiny. The EU's not going to save us, and neither
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
Scrap First Past The Post Already
I had a passenger the other day, a young professional, and we got talking about politics, she was saying how she felt like her vote didn't count because she lived in a safe seat, I told her I knew what she meant, I've been voting Labour all
Time to Make Corporations Pay Their Fair Share
So why are massive corporations getting away with paying basically no tax while I'm out here on the North Sea working my arse off to keep the lights on. It's just not right that they're making billions off our natural resources and our labo
Our Children Deserve More Than Just Promises: Real Investment in Education
It’s easy for politicians to talk about the future, but for those of us on the front lines, the future is in our classrooms right now. My priority, like most parents and teachers, is ensuring our children get the education they deserve, not
Paying France to build migrant camps? Madness. We need border control, not outsourcing.
I was talking to my mate Dave the other day, whose business exports machinery to Europe. He’s absolutely fuming about the endless paperwork and delays just to get a lorry through Calais. Now they’re talking about paying the French to build
