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?
Scrap the NHS lottery system
What's the point of having a national health service if you can't even get a doctor's appointment when you need one, I mean I've had passengers who've had to wait months for a routine checkup. I was talking to a bloke in the back of my
Sort Out The NHS Waiting Lists Already
I had a passenger the other day, poor bloke, been waiting for a knee replacement for over a year, and he's still got no date for the op. He's in agony, can barely walk, and it's affecting his job, his family, everything. I've seen this time
Revitalise High Streets with Sensible Rate Reform
As a chartered accountant I've seen firsthand the struggles small businesses face with the current business rates system. It's outdated and fails to account for the complexities of local economies. We need a more nuanced approach that consi
Tired of protest votes and voting against something, not for it.
It’s frustrating to see so many people casting votes just to register a complaint or to stop someone else getting in. That’s not how good governance happens. We end up with a muddled mandate and it makes it harder for any government to actu
GPs should offer same-week appointments for everyone over 65
My mum is 78. Last time she rang her surgery the next appointment was in 19 days. At her age things change fast. Guarantee same-week GP appointments for everyone over 65. Not triage. Not a form. An actual doctor within 7 days.
Cap class sizes at 25 with no exceptions
Cap class sizes at 25. Everywhere. Primary and secondary. Yes it costs money. Its called investing in children.
Scotland deserves better than Westminster's defence mess
I was talking to one of my pupils the other day and they mentioned their dad was in the military, stationed somewhere in England. The kid was worried sick because their dad was being sent to some godforsaken place to fight in a war that doe
Energy Security: Common Sense Over Climate Alarmism
It’s utterly exhausting listening to these endless debates about Net Zero as if it’s some sort of religious commandment. Honestly, the obsession with hitting arbitrary targets seems to eclipse any real concern for what working families are
Enough with the endless car lanes, let's build proper cycle tracks now.
We need to mandate the creation of genuinely segregated cycle infrastructure on all new and major road-renewal projects. This isn't about painting a white line and calling it a cycle lane; it's about physical separation from motor traffic,
Slash Red Tape, Not Just Rates
I've spent years dealing with the bureaucratic nightmare that is our business rates system, and I'm convinced it's stifling entrepreneurship in this country. As a chartered accountant, I've seen firsthand how small businesses are crippled b
Bring back common sense (we are not clear what this means but we are very sure about it)
Everyone agrees we need more common sense in this country. Nobody can define what that means exactly, but thats beside the point. You know it when you see it. And more importantly, you know when its missing. Common sense says you shouldnt
A proper integration programme for new arrivals, funded centrally and delivered locally
I think most people in this country, when they are being honest with themselves, accept that immigration has been broadly positive for Britain economically and culturally. But I also think most people, including those who support immigratio
Scrap the NHS waiting list nonsense
I'm proposing we overhaul the NHS waiting list system to focus on urgent care first, rather than just who's been waiting the longest. This is needed because the current system is failing people who need immediate attention, prioritizing bur
Restore trust in institutions by making appointments genuinely independent
The erosion of institutional independence is one of the most damaging trends in recent British politics. Appointments to quangos, regulators, and public bodies are increasingly made on the basis of political loyalty rather than competence.
Why Are We Letting Bureaucrats Run the NHS Instead of Patients?
How did we end up with a system where patients have to beg for treatments the NHS deems "too expensive," yet we spend billions on administrative bloat and opaque procurement processes? It’s madness. We've got a national institution, meant t
Scrap the Green Belt Sell Off
I was out walking with my kids in the Wirral countryside last weekend and we stumbled upon a sign that said a big chunk of the green belt was up for sale to developers. It made my blood boil, to be honest. The green belt is what keeps our a
Sick Pay's a Joke - Time to Actually Pay People When They're Ill
Why should anyone have to choose between going into work sick and losing their rent money? It's madness, plain and simple. People are forced to spread their germs, making everyone else sick, and then they're penalised for it. It’s not just
Enough! Stop letting developers build luxury flats nobody can afford.
We need a new policy that forces developers to build genuinely affordable housing, not more overpriced shoeboxes. A quarter of every new development has to be social housing, and another quarter has to be at a genuinely affordable rent for
Scotland Needs Its Own NHS
I think Scotland should have its own fully autonomous National Health Service, free from Westminster control. This is needed because the current system is clearly not working for us, with decisions made in London that don't take into accoun
Proportional Representation isn't radical, it's just fair! Why are we still stuck in the dark ages?
I was chatting with my neighbour the other day, a lovely woman who works as a carer. She was telling me how she feels completely invisible politically. Her vote, she said, never seems to make a difference in her constituency because it’s al
