First Past The Post Voting In The UK

 I think it is important to talk about the way in which voting works in the UK. For many of you out there, the system will probably make sense as it is not a unique system here compared to many places in the world. 

All About Keir Starmer

He is a father, a dutiful husband, and a former lawyer. Well, Starmer exceeded all of this as soon as he became the leader of the Labour Party of Great Britain. He spent his whole life fighting on behalf of ordinary people, seeking fairness for them by being a lawyer. 

What Would I do in Power?

 Many of us have ideas of what we would do in the Prime Ministers' shoes, I’m one of those people. I think it is easy for us to say we would do that, or do that.

More specifically it is a party that exclusively stands in Scotland, be that for the Scottish government or the UK-wide Westminister Government. 

The Labour Party

 So I guess the first thing to mention is the most obvious, that is the fact that The about party is a political party in the UK that is said to be the part of the working man(and woman). It is guided by the principles of socialism, supporting trade unions, and being the hero of the working class and underprivileged.

Maggie Thatcher became the first female western leader of a political party in February 1975.

So it's time to talk Tory. No, we aren't going to be bashing them all that much today, but mostly a quick lesson into the modern party and where it came from. Here we will talk about the origins, general ideals and modern actions of the Conservative  Party.
