In a foreword to the document, party leader Sir BarendFredericShaw said the country faced “dwindling activity and little engagement” from government, arguing that Westminster needed “meaningful change”.
The manifesto’s central constitutional pledge is a proposal to reduce the House of Commons to 40 seats, with the party arguing that a smaller chamber would improve engagement and reduce the influence of party whips.
Other Parliament and Constitution proposals include:
- Workshops to train MPs and ministers in drafting legislation and statutory instruments
- A centralised database for Acts of Parliament and statutory instruments
- Representation for Gibraltar and the Falkland Islands on the regional independent seats list
- Expanded use of statutory instruments across government
On policing and home affairs, the Cosmocrats pledged to work with the Metropolitan Police to allow officers to commit “off-duty crime” in-game once again, arguing current restrictions reduce community activity.
In foreign affairs, the party says it would maintain ties with the UN and Commonwealth while opening formal relations with “ro-states” such as Mayflower. The manifesto also commits to pursuing Anglo-Irish reconciliation involving Northern Ireland.
Economic proposals include reviving the “Gromit Awards”, introducing new prize categories, and bringing back motorsport competition through the “Vector Force” racing initiative.
The manifesto also outlines justice reforms, including a separate award category for law firms and changes to the Bar exam process intended to reduce supervision requirements and time pressure for examinees.
Proposed cabinet appointments include CillianClarke as Chancellor, AlfieAlFayeed as Foreign Secretary, Lord Sheringham of Calcutta as Home Secretary, and AmmunitionTechnician as Justice Secretary.
