    I have never voted for labor or Tories so i shouldn't be responsible for DEBT or pay VAT on goods.

    maybe we should have a SKIN IN THE GAME rule.

    abolish first past the post voting, make it knock out.
    require all registered voters take part, any one abstaining form vote will lose legal protections and be considered a civilian status.

    Winning party voters will be subject to responsibilities and non voters and losing party voters will be designated civilians. A civilian may not be drafted for war, may not pay taxes may not benefit from state funded programs, may not claim welfare, healthcare or rental subsidies (basically anything government funded and paid by tax payers) Any one holding a Business and supporting workers who is classified as a civilian may chose to pay taxes in exchange for citizen status this also includes eligibility for the DRAFT.

    i mean the issue would be unemployed on welfare will be required to request citizenship and change their vote after the winning vote has been cast, this will not effect outcome of elections.

    Dependency should not be forced on a person rather requested but no one should be responsible for a PARTY they did not vote for nor their policy's this includes any debt or war the party enters during their term.

    Yes if your party lost the vote you can opt in to supporting the winning party but you must also abide by their policy's and laws. (policy based law making should be separated from common law and can be subject to being overturned under a new party government, these laws however do not override common law which protects all people in the country regardless of status)

    would be nice to have laws that must be RENEWED every election

    A leading party should not be allowed to take LOANS out with the reserve against TAX payers who never voted for them

    Maybe if people ACTUALLY kept on top of there governments, this SHXT wouldn't be happening, its because people want an easy life they dont take note of what the government is spending or giving away ,why is it normal working people spend money there balance goes down, rich elites and government peeps keep spending but there money always seems to get higher 🤔🤔🤔🤔

    Greece went off a cliff once borrowing costs exceeded 6%.
    We are close to 5% now.

Zia Yusuf delivers a scathing critique of both the Conservative and Labour parties, accusing them of failing the British public on immigration and foreign aid. In this explosive segment, the Reform UK Home Affairs spokesperson claims the country has experienced “the biggest wave of untrammelled mass immigration ever seen,” placing the blame squarely on successive governments.

Yusuf outlines why Reform UK is launching a new inquiry into what he calls the “Boriswave,” arguing that border policies under recent leadership have left the UK exposed. He raises concerns about public safety, national priorities, and whether the current system is truly serving the interests of the British people.

In this week’s Chopper’s Political Podcast, Christopher Hope is joined by Tom Harwood and Katherine Forster to examine the growing debate around the UK state pension and the “triple lock.”

With Reform UK now joining other major parties in backing the policy, the discussion explores why the triple lock remains politically untouchable, despite rising concerns over its long-term cost. The panel breaks down how the system works, why it was introduced, and how it has helped reduce pensioner poverty, while also raising questions about fairness between generations.

They also look at the mounting financial pressures facing the UK, including the rising cost of pensions, slow economic growth, and an ageing population. Could the triple lock become unsustainable in the future? And if so, what alternatives might be considered?
