With the General Election nearly upon us, here's your chance to lay out your own manifesto for the UK. What would you do if you were in charge? Here's your chance to think big! (Or you can call for free hugs and chocolate biscuits. They're important too.)

MP's should have at least ten or fifteen years of either being employed, being unemployed or being in business before they're allowed to run for office. The whole scene now seems to be clogged with people who have no idea what life is really like for the majority of people in this country. Anyway, students are twats. Fuckin' students.

Same problem in Australia - people study law, graduate, become career politicians. No exposure to real life, no motivation to make the country better, just a huge incentive to spend all their time furthering and protecting their career choice of politician. The political parties are indistinguishable, and nothing really gets done.

Students who study politics learn how to get votes.
That may be useful to them but does nothing for the rest of us.

For example, 'Psycologists' do a degree, do their Post Doc and Masters, do their PHD, become lecturer, Senior Lecturer, PL, Departmental Head, basing their research on the only subjects they can get to take part in their studies - other Psycology Students - never having left the same institution for 20+ years, spouting the same stuff over and over like a human centipede of bollocks going around and around feeding itself.
Occasionally, getting interviewed for some random piece of news on TV-AM at 7:20am....
Never had proper jobs...
