    Just googled Mathew Goodwin. He's now 41, perfect age to start getting himself elected (he's got 30 strong years in front of him). Without googling all can see that his name is also perfect for politics (if he ever runs, his wins will be good ones). Plus he's handsome without being overly handsome, his voice is good and clear, and his manner inspires confidence. But most of all HE'S GOT THE IDEAS WE ALL NEED.

    I told my students I'm voting SDP. A few of them are doing a presentation on its history and values. I also removed all the BLM posters in the classroom and asked the class to come up with a reason for them to stay up. They have yet to get back to me.

    All the little parties added together would be quite a force. The country is in extremis! Leave petty differences aside and join forces in a ‘People’s Party’. There are dozens of men and women whose faces are known to the public and admired. We must have an alternative to the ‘uni party’ run by WEF. This man has got the situation in focus. He has the intelligence and the courage to speak out loud. A cool head, a stout heart and a ready tongue - he has the gifts to take the lead. Please share!

    Think Matt hits the nail on the head regarding the Tory party. For myself I've had a bit of a political journey like most. Im moddle aged now with a young family and consistently don't recognise myself in where i work (NHS), where i shop, what I watch on TV (when i bother), and as alluded to at the beginning...in who i vote for. The sheer sense of disappointment I feel about the Tory party is beyond description in polite terms. My sense of fear about Labour getting back in under the gang they present is also indescribable. A change is required and that change is decades overdue now.

    I’m a member of the SDP, but to be honest, they stand little chance of making a breakthrough unless they get some serious “heavyweights” of British Politics on board 😬
    I’m trying to engage with the South West branch, but their activities appear to be “good old fashioned leaflet drops” (🙄🙄🙄), and their annual meeting (last night I believe) was held at the local LABOUR Club 😩😩😩
    Can they not see how badly that might have reflected on them??
    (And then they clashed with the England-SA rugby match too 🙄🙄🙄)
    I would absolutely vote for them if they “went national”, but at the moment almost no one has heard of them 😢

When they graduate especially in london they have rents of £2.500 per month where immigrants in socisl housing in Kensington pay £500 per month probaby paud by the taxpayer as they survive on benefits. They think London will become like American towns where theyve become ghettos. Those that contribute are moving out of these areas.

    The assertion that all civil servants are privileged is a misconception because when people like Matt and others say the Civil Service they mean Whitehall Civil Servants and they mean senior management civil servants. So firstly there are many many many civil servants that do not work in Whitehall up and down the country in what would be classed as poorer cities from Plymouth up to Durham etc. The Lower grades of the civil service grades AA-HEO realistically employ and utilize people with working-class backgrounds, who would certainly be horrified at being classed as woke, their reason for striking wasn't about policy it was about their pay and conditions, why Matt does talk sense on some things he talks utter nonsense on things like this and trots off the usual Conservative talking point of blaming civil servants outright.

    If the SDP have anything to do with Socialism, they are not on the right track. For the consequences of that philosophy, just look at the NHS. It's full of dedicated medical practitioners, up to their necks in a bureaucratic nightmare. And even the knowledgeable bureaucrats and politicians, if there are any, don't know how to unravel the muddle. It's why we are where we are: with the monolithic structure created by the 1945 Labour government.
    Compassion, politicised, so easily degenerates into tribal power struggles. Instead, keep it business like, serving the customer, and if you want 'free at the point of delivery', put it in the requirements specifications, and also who will have that available, if they are ill.

      AFAIK, the SDP rejects the 'neoliberalism' that has meant just let the markets rip, and to hell with the effects on our economy and our people. It is important who makes things and where they come from, and government has a role in delivering our natural utilities and setting the rules for markets to operate in.

      The problem is that the NET Zero scam rules over Westminster, and Whitehall (the evidence is the continuity of the policies), so everything is subservient to it.
      Added to this, EU membership meant they lost the ability to govern, plan, negotiate, and bring out the best in people. They enjoyed being subservient to Brussels.

      To compare the NHS of 1945 to now is an exercise in only proving how silly it is to introduce private motive into healthcare, the NHS of the Atlee government and for decades after was world-class and world-building. The NHS has been undermined over the last 20 years by successive governments all following a form of Thatcherism (Blair slightly adjusted it but it was Thatcherism). The UK and the US for that matter are still suffering from the Neo-Liberalism of Thatcher and Reagan. When proper common sense ideals were implemented by Social Democrats like Atlee, FDR etc.
