Culture and sport
We must be proud of British culture, history, and traditions. We need to encourage sport at all levels.

Great Britain and the British Empire were a force for good, and our country’s achievements should be celebrated. British history should be a core subject in schools, and we must create a national museum and historical theme park to increase the accessibility of our island story. Understanding history is essential to learn from past mistakes and inform good decision-making in the future.
We must fully support media freedom and oppose all forms of censorship. We must cease funding the BBC through the licence fee and seek to provide a level playing field for media outlets. We must embrace the performing arts and seek to encourage them at all levels. Local competitive sport is essential to provide exercise and build a sense of community.
