Polls: Who do you want running the UK?

Following British politics is exhausting. August is meant to be among the quietest months regarding political affairs, but in 2018, this statement has become archaic. With conference season set to begin, it is hard for any leader, regardless of the Party they represent, to deliver a speech to inspire the majority. Theresa May can't even jiggle in peace without people unleashing their inner-Craig Revel Horwood.

Politics today has never been so volatile. Many voters are confused by where they see themselves on the political scale. Some Conservative voters aren't a fan of their leader Theresa May but don't want Boris Johnson to replace her. Some Labour voters are angst by the fact Jeremy Corbyn is still leader, but are at a loss as to who they believe can succeed him.

This is where I get ambitious. I am inviting you to share your thoughts. I have two relatively straightforward questions for you to answer. They may offer fascinating findings, yet it could also lead to a small handful of responses. All I ask is to please answer honestly. If you want a Conservative government but also feel a current Labour politician has what it takes to lead government, that's completely acceptable. That's almost the entire point of what I hope to achieve with this. Perhaps the majority want one type of government but feel an MP from another Party is the bee's knees. If anything, that would confirm the complete division we're seeing in the UK today.

To make your life a little easier, you don't have to pick one preferred choice as Prime Minister. You can pick as many as you feel fits the bill of leading the country. I've made the conscious decision not to include their Parties as that could just give the game away to the so-called 'hard-line' supporters of that organisation. Here are the questions. Please spread this far and wide!

What type of government would you like to see?

Conservative (with no coalition)
Labour (with no coalition)
Conservative (in coalition with Liberal Democrats)
Labour (in coalition with Liberal Democrats)
Conservative (in coalition with parties based in devolved nations)
Labour (in coalition with parties based in devolved nations)
Rainbow coalition (all parties in coalition, with party which has highest number of seats to lead)

Splitting Britain to its eventual death

Londoner Mo Farah and Sheffield-born Jessica Ennis-Hill set to see their cities drift away from Westminster bubble (Image: Daily Mail) I don't know about you, but I'm loving this year's Olympics. The daunting talk about Brazil's corrupt politics, high levels of extreme poverty and the doping scandal are secondary topics for discussion while the spectacular sporting action and country's tourism boost are dominating headlines. But for me, I've been particularly impressed by UK's togetherness in pride for Team GB's overwhelming success so far. The country's dominance in rowing and cycling is something worth celebrating and hopefully they can provide a new wave of inspiration for many that London 2012 sadly couldn't. With Team GB continuing to shine in Rio de Janeiro, it's a big shame that back at home, political leaders are going out of their way in breaking up the country. In this rate, come Tokyo 2020 Olympics or whoever hosts the 2

Sepp Blatter mustn't resign, yet

Fifa President has to clean-up his mess before deciding to leave Living in Blatter-land World football governing body, Fifa's President Sepp Blatter has been under the spotlight for the second consecutive week and again for all the wrong reasons. Last week he banned British isle national sides from wearing a poppy branding the flower "political" but this time around, on countless interviews with major broadcasting companies yesterday, he controversially said that "there is no racism in football" and if racism occurred in a match, then players involved must handshake at the end of the game. This has sparked anger across the world of football including hierarchies of the English Professional Football Association (PFA), football players such as Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand and pundits alike. After hearing those comments by Blatter, people such as myself would bang our heads on brick walls. Today, the 75-year-old went to clarify his previous afterno

Settling the transgender debate like grown-ups

Flag that represents the trans community (Image: The Age) The 'transgender debate' has been hard to escape in recent years. It's impacting many areas of our lives, including in schools , work and sport . Sadly, the media narrative of these stories has made it impossible to rationally discuss how to best support people who have decided to make this life-changing decision, or how to assure their 'opponents' that they aren't being cast aside, or their rights have been taken from them. I'll try and analyse this as level-headed as possible and conclude what we (UK as a whole) should be doing, as a way of being a world leader on what is seen as a divisive matter, where it ought not to be. The current narrative is arguably led by two very different sides - one, the so-called 'pro-trans' groups, who combatively argue that people who want to transition should have easy access to basically everything; from legally changing their gender, to requiring advanced
