Our Defence Budget: Public Money for Public Safety, Not Private Profit
It’s easy to point fingers at government spending and say it’s all inefficient. Of course, there are always areas for improvement, and nobody wants to see public money wasted. But the idea that handing over something as fundamental as natio
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
stop wasting our cash on green tokenism
what's the point of having all these fancy recycling schemes if most of it ends up in landfill anyway, I was talking to a friend who works at the local council and apparently it's a right old mess, they're just chucking it all in together a
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
Every government service should have a phone number that reaches a human
My mum is 78. She does not have a smartphone. She does not have an app. Her bank has one branch left in the county. The DWP expect her to use the online portal. The council expect her to email. HMRC expect her to log in with a code sent to
Enough is enough! Young offenders need proper supervision, not just a slap on the wrist.
I saw young Jamie the other week, you know, the lad whose mum I used to teach, Sarah? He’s only 17 and already he’s been done for shoplifting twice. Sarah’s at her wits end. He’s not a bad kid, just bored and falling in with the wrong crowd
Get Rid of Car Lanes on Busy City Roads
I think we should convert at least one car lane on every major city road to a dedicated bike and bus lane, it's the only way we'll ever reduce congestion and pollution. This is desperately needed because our city is choking on traffic, and
cap donations from billionaires
I propose we introduce a strict cap on individual donations to political parties, so no one person can give more than 1000 pounds in a single year. This is needed because the current system allows wealthy individuals to exert disproportiona
Cross-departmental review of the review process, with a view to reviewing how reviews are commissioned
The Difficult Decisions Party has noted, with some concern, that the government currently commissions a large number of reviews. The Difficult Decisions Party has further noted, also with concern, that reviews are sometimes commissioned to
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
Hold corporations to account for river pollution
I've seen the state of our local rivers in Liverpool and it's heartbreaking. As a social worker, I've worked with families who rely on these waterways for recreation and relaxation, only to find them polluted by corporate greed. The current
Enough with the plastic wrap, we need a deposit scheme that actually works
I was at the supermarket yesterday, and honestly, the amount of single-use plastic packaging for even basic vegetables is absurd. It's like they actively want us to drown in it. Then I saw some sad-looking reusable containers someone had cl
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
Right to die with dignity act
The issue of assisted dying is a complex and emotive one, and it's clear that the current system is not working for those who are terminally ill and wish to end their suffering. It's a matter of basic human rights and compassion, and we nee
Cut the Red Tape Already
What's the point of having a government that claims to support small businesses when they just suffocate us with regulations and bureaucracy. I mean think about it, every time I try to expand my plumbing business I've got to fill out a doze
A Balanced Energy Approach is Needed
As a long-time advocate for sensible policy, I am dismayed by the prevailing approach to energy production, which often prioritises ideology over pragmatism. The notion that we can abruptly transition to a fully green energy system is not o
Defence spending is a joke
I'm sick of hearing about how we need to boost defence spending to keep the country safe, when the truth is that's just code for lining the pockets of arms dealers and politicians who don't know the first thing about what actually keeps peo
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
Sort Grimsby First, Then Worry About World Affairs
Look, I’m not saying we shouldn’t have a strong defence, my dad always said you need to look after your own house. But the idea that we’re supposed to be running around sorting out everyone else’s problems when our own high street is strugg
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
