If you became PM what would you do?? 19:48 - Dec 20 with 10652 viewsKeno

Me

1, scrap trident and save something like £20billion
2, undo the feck up that is Brexit
3, guarantee nurses etc pay of inflation plus at least 1% every yesr
4, make the use of extendable dog leads and those long training leads a criminal offence
5, reform income tax to a single charge (eg scrap ni)band bring in a higher rate
6, ban sports teams playing in green and yellow
7, allow Irish unity
8, reduce the royals to immediate and heirs making them effectively tax paying staff
9, cut down property and wealth of churches, to create “charity funds” for poor and needy - which is what the f4cking churches should be all about anyway
10, ban Piers Morgan and Nigel Farrage (I not sure I could sanction acts of countryside)

Nationalise water, energy, rail travel and the Royal Mail.

Find a way to effectively stop companies moving to tax havens to avoid tax. Tax Amazon, Starbucks etc fairly by closing loopholes. If the sale was in the UK, you pay tax on it.

A proper study on UBI involving the entire nation

Ban second jobs for MPs

Ban anyone who has been an MP from entering the House of Lords and have a referendum on the House of Lords continuing to exist

Try to negotiate in secret with the EU to offer us one last chance of coming back on the terms we had. If they agree, referendum 2.0.

Grant Scotland their referendum.

Pass a law that any employee has the right to not work on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and Easter Friday to Monday.

Up the minimum paid time off for full time employees to 26 days + bank holidays.

Build council homes

Pass a law making flexible working mandatory for jobs which can accommodate it.

Strongly encourage a 4 day work week with some sort of tax incentive to businesses who agree.

Invest more in mental health

Free breakfast and lunch for all kids at school if they want it.


And much more.

1. Keep Trident and ensure the replacement is fully funded.
2. Ensure Ukraine NATO membership is fast tracked.

3. Like US tax law remove non-domicile status - if you are a UK citizen then you pay UK tax where ever you live.
4. Voting compulsory for all UK adult citizens - but online voting fully implemented. Criminal offence for those not partaking and fines issued (proceeds given to charity).
5. MP salaries raised by 50%, Parliament recess reduced by 50% - no other jobs, director directorships etc. Parliament sittings compulsory - all unauthorised absentees punishable by 1 night in prison. All MP autobiographies banned until they are retired.
6. Free domestic training for teenagers. This includes shutting doors (including soft-close kitchen cupboards - complex bits of kit that are difficult to grasp when studying for a quantum physics degree…).
7. Free asparagus for the under-5s.

Double MP's salaries but forbid any additional jobs, cut the number of MP's in half.
Allow Scotland a referendum, though from what I see they'd stay, even more likely if i'm PM
Scrap HS2
Build lots of local authority homes and tighten up and police laws around affordable housing as part of private developments.
Stick 1p on the base rate tax which is strictly ring fenced for NHS spending.
Massive review of social welfare funding, conducted by somebody who knows their arse from their elbow.
Try and renogotiate with the EU allowing free movement of citizens once more, sadly I think the Brexit ship has sailed.
Order a full scale investigation into whether jaffa cakes are cakes or biscuits.
Invest in rural local transport.
Personally go and destroy the DVLA and set up a new organisation that actually does something.
Scrap the road fund license and instead put it on fuel.
Means tested government backed discounts on all utilities, on a sliding scale.

Don’t scrap trident as it’s the only thing that keeps russia in check.

Have another eu referendum

Pay carers more

Pay teacher assistants more. They run many classes of sometimes difficult kids on little more than minimum wage.

Don’t scrap ni as the poorer paid will end up paying more income tax. Employers pay ni as well as employees.

Help more autistic people after education find work and assisted living.

Promote e bikes

Build fusion reactors

Encourage organic farming. May need to accept genetic modified crops.

Stop HS2 immediately

Make 'rightieness' a notifiable disease

Decree it a criminal offence to use newspeak

Ensure spurious charities pay the same taxes as other similar businesses

End the requirement for taxi drivers to be called Roger

Compel all male royals to take a DNA test

Deport Farage, Piers Morgan, Richard Littlebrain, Rees-Mogg to Rwanda .....


..... all measures to be introduced after first buying myself a peaked cap, a white jacket and a pair of sunglasses

Because historically democracy hasn’t come cheap and elections financially cost a lot to organise.

Citizens therefore have the civic/moral duty to get out and vote (even if the weather is a bit ‘shiote’). Spoil your papers by all means but many died for this freedom not enjoyed many other nations.

I would make it law that for the first 6 months of being PM, the new PM must live on the same wages/allowances/benefits as someone from the poorest 5% of the country. They are given exactly the same budget as the poorest in our society and they have to find their own way for that 6 months, with their family also along. So housing, food, bills etc all from that allowance. They will be allowed to jump the housing queue and not go through the tortuous red tape of actually getting benefits, or the six months would be up before they started. One, it would put some people off the job who are purely in it for power, prestige and future earnings, but most importantly it’s the only way they would get a true feel for the grinding challenges of the poorest. Who knows, it may help them to help the poorest with their decisions rather than helping the richest. Just a thought.
