‘How would you use AI to make a positive contribution to political discourse?’
The deadline for submissions closed at 17.00 Thursday 28 May 2026
Are you a student aged 16 to 19 who has thoughts on this topic? If so, we’re looking to you for creative ideas in our annual competition to find the best political student blog!
Students, from across the UK and abroad, were invited to submit a blog in response to this question for our annual competition, run in partnership with the Financial Times who provide free access to FT.com for high/secondary teachers and students anywhere in the world, and supported by Shout Out UK, the home of political literacy and youth voice.
The blogs will be judged by a panel of experts from academia and politics, who will look for creative thinking, good arguments, concepts and expression as much as writing skills!
- The competition winner and runners-up will be invited by Shout Out UK, and the All Party Political Group on Political and Media Literacy – and the winner will have the opportunity to present their blog – at a Parliamentary reception on Tuesday 9 June
- The winning blog will be published on the PSA and Financial Times Education websites
