I'd agree with definitely 4 and the abortion one I could likely be persuaded on.
1)I would abolish the TV licence for all time.
2)This one may be controversial but I would ban all face coverings in public.
In the times we live in I believe we all should have the right to see clearly who we are walking the streets with and who we are shopping in stores with as indeed with all other public areas.
3) I would remove from the political arena the NHS and Education,ensuring there was continuity and protection as to both to stop them being used as political footballs between the Parties.
4)I would have added to criminal charges an additional clause of intent,such as if someone kidnapped a child,not only would they be prosecuted for that act but the intent too.
If for example,a child was taken by adults not known to them,then it would be unlikely they were taking them for to see a movie and only to give them sweets.
I would have the intent added so that in all cases the charge was magnified with a much longer and stiffer sentence being the norm.
5) I would take back into public ownership energy.
The competition and cheaper/fair pricing for energy promised at privatisation of same has not materialised at all and I would end the ripping off of customers who have to have the energy.
Absolutely loads more,in fact I think I would want to try to go back to the drawing board as to most things and laws and start again.
