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?
Westminster thinks cutting welfare is the answer. Wales needs control of its own social security funding.
Why do we always hear that cutting support for our own people is the path to national strength? It seems Westminster constantly views social security as a burden to be reduced, rather than an investment in the very fabric of our communities
Time to actually invest in towns like Grimsby, not just talk about it
We need a "Towns First" economic strategy that forces national investment into struggling high streets and industrial areas, not just endless consultations. This means government grants and tax breaks specifically for businesses opening or
Fund the NHS Properly for Once
I'm proposing that the government increases NHS funding by at least 10% annually for the next 5 years to tackle the chronic understaffing and underfunding that's crippling our healthcare system. This is desperately needed because we're at a
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
Scrap the farmer subsidies, just let them get on with it.
The government should immediately abolish all direct farming subsidies and replace them with a simple, transparent tax credit system for investments in sustainable practices. These subsidies are a bureaucratic nightmare, distorting markets
Stop funding grand projects, just fix the blinking roads for tradesmen and commuters
The government should redirect a significant portion of the budget currently allocated to enormous, long-term national transport projects, like high-speed rail, towards funding immediate, practical improvements for local road networks and c
Why are we still letting people pick our skilled workers for us?
Why are we still letting the Home Office decide who comes into Wales to fill vital jobs? It's like asking a chef in London to pick the ingredients for a bara brith in Aberystwyth. They just don't get what's needed on the ground here. Our p
Enough with the empty flats! Time to tax empty homes into use.
We need a serious policy to tackle the scandal of empty homes sitting vacant across Scotland while families struggle to find affordable housing. This proposal calls for a significant increase in council tax on properties that have been unoc
Fix the NHS waiting lists debacle
Are we really saying it's acceptable that people have to wait months for routine operations, only to be told they might have to go private if they want to get it done quickly. It's madness, and it's not what we pay our taxes for. I think
Cut Red Tape, Not Care: Smarter NHS Funding
I get the frustration with NHS waiting lists, believe me. I see it with my own customers too – people worried about their parents’ health or their own. But comparing it to Roman times or suggesting private enterprise is the only answer just
Ditch the Plastic Export Scam
I'm so fed up with our government letting companies export plastic waste to developing countries, it's just disgusting — like we're dumping our trash on people who can't even deal with their own. It's not just the environmental damage, it's
Why Are We Still Paying Polluters To Pollute? Enough Is Enough.
Seriously, how did we ever get to a point where we subsidise industries that are actively destroying the planet? It’s like paying arsonists to buy more matches. We’re essentially giving money to the very companies that contribute most to th
Enough with the luxury flats, where are the actual homes for people?
I saw a group of Year 10s yesterday, all local kids I know, sketching out their dream houses during a rainy lunch break. One girl, Aisha, who’s so bright it’s criminal, was drawing this modest three-bed terrace with a little garden. She sai
Scrap the TV debates for good
I was at the pub the other night and overheard a group of people talking about the latest by-election results. One of them mentioned how the winner was nowhere to be found after the result was announced. It got me thinking about how our ele
Stop Ladling Out Cash for Empty Schemes – Fund Bristol Businesses Directly Instead!
Bristol First proposes a direct grant scheme for small and medium-sized local businesses that have been operating successfully for at least three years and can demonstrate a clear need for funding to expand or maintain operations. This isn'
Honestly, why are we still locking people up for minor drug possession? It’s madness.
I’m so fed up with seeing people, especially young people, get criminal records for carrying a bit of cannabis or some other relatively harmless substance. It completely messes up their lives, making it impossible to get jobs or housing, an
Enough is enough – time to get serious about skilled immigration, not just shouting
We need a completely overhauled immigration system focused on bringing in skilled workers and those with in-demand professions, while drastically reducing low-skilled routes and cracking down on illegal immigration. It's time we moved beyon
Scrap the NHS Bureaucracy
I was at the hospital last week visiting my mate who's been waiting for a knee replacement for months, and what struck me was the number of staff wandering around doing nothing, while the doctors and nurses are run off their feet. My mate's
Enough of this farming nonsense - let's get back to basics for the people
We need to drastically change farming subsidies so they directly support growing food for local people, not just churning out whatever makes the most money for big agribusiness. For too long, we’ve sent taxpayer cash to farmers to grow crop
Why Are We Still Throwing Money At Broken Systems Instead Of Just Fixing Them?
Seriously, how many more reports do we need telling us that the current social welfare system is an absolute mess? We've got people falling through the cracks, endless bureaucracy, and not enough actual support where it's needed. It feels l
