Fathers for Justice

Farther for justice is a pressure group which campaigns against fathers rights in private family courts. The pressure group fights against cases in which stops the fathers legally seeing or having contact with their children. The statistic for children who live without a father in the UK is 1 in 3, on average in the uk's population equals around 4 million fatherless children. Fathers for justice say that daily, 200 kids lose contact with there fathers due to family situations involving their parents. 

A particular campaign which stands out in the pressure group for Father for justice is the superhero climb, which involved men dressed as supermen to climb up Buckingham Palace and Tower Hill in protest to campaign in what they believe in: equal rights. 

Fathers for justice is a outsider type of pressure group as they don't have a relationship with the government or work with them in any particular way, instead they protest against their rules. They are also a promotional pressure group in that the achievement of their objectives is not necessarily of direct professional or economic benefit to the members of the group.  

I personally think that the campaign is very successful, with millions of views on youtube, 35,000+ supporters and a good group I think the campaign is a really successful idea which supports a large support of people. 

What are the major similarities and differences within the Labour and conservative party?

Labour and the Conservative Party fall differently on the political spectrum. The Labour party, lead by Jeremy Corbyn are consider a left wing party. With Jeremy Corbyn as a lead of the Labour party it has been noticed that the party are starting to head far right. Compared to the Conservative party, lead by David Cameron which is sat in the right wing position on the political spectrum.

Trident is something which has recently shown a big difference within the two major parties. Labour party state in their manifesto that " replace Nuclear defence system trident with a sea based nuclear deterrent " This show the way that Labour want to reduce their budget deficit by decreasing Trident Compared to the conservative party which in their manifesto say " Retain trident and build a new fleet of nuclear submarines." The conservatives are saying this because they are considering the future towards the way the world is heading, there is constantly threats and ideas that there is going to be nuclear wars which the UK need to be prepared for. 

Another thing in which they parties disagreed with was the Referendum on Leaving the EU.  The tories are saying that a Referendum is a good idea as it gives the public a choice to make their decision and have a effect in the UK and show a form of democracy. They also say that the outcome would be good if either we leave or if we stay in the EU, yet step back from the EU instead of being fully involved. Contradicting this idea is the Labour party who say that they don't want a Referendum because its a ridiculous idea to leave the EU. The Labour party believe that the UK wouldn't be able to stand on its own without the EU's Support. 

A idea in which they do agree with is the " No rise in VAT, National Insurance and income tax " Although its surprising that the Tories want this as they are right wing and the usual ideologies that they agree with. The usual ideologies for the Right wing policies is that the economy is most important. 

In conclusion, the parties are very different. The majority of the ideologies on the manifesto are very different with different ideas. 

Does Jeremy Corbyn align himself more with traditional socialism or is he a social democrat?

Jeremy Corbyn, the current and new Labour Party leader has taken to storm in the UK. Although Jeremy Corbyn is a throwback to the dark days in the Labour Party, he now is one of the most famous names to appear in the Labour Party.

"We are a socialist party and socialism is the answer" rings round the Labour Party. But is Jeremy Corbyn really a traditional socialist? I would say no, I believe that Jeremy Corbyn is a social democrat. He is very critical of social inequality and poverty within the UK yet he always wants to tackle economic values. Jeremy Corbyn says that the attitudes of the Labours attitude are not good since Blair. He plans on changing that by being honest and truthful to the people.

Jeremy would say that equality is a really important ideology, it's important that it is important to tackle, the best way to do this is through increasing the economy. Which would make him a social democrat
