it does bewilder me that we don't teach politics as a subject in school as just... one of the expected subjects like history and geography, the amount of people i meet who don't even know basic things like what an MP is, who the parties are, etc, this should be taught at school

Hot take is we shouldn't invite the SNP/Plaid Cymru and leave them to do their own regional debates and instead invite the five main parties and have this be the main debate setup (ideally not done by ITV so it's moderated properly) Keir v Rishi v Ed v Nigel v Carla, much easier

Banter timeline scenario where Ed Davey becomes LOTO by like one (1) seat over the Tories and that one seat loss difference is a result of losing Clacton to Farage and we end up with the Tories always being close to becoming the main opposition party but never achieving it
