I don't actually mind speed cameras in towns and cities, school zones, but I would take them off the motorways and increase the motorway speed limit to 90mph. I would reduce the tax on fuel. I would re-vamp the benefit system, re-train half the administration staff to be field employees to root out fraudsters and cheats. Completely overhaul the NHS, remove 2/3 of the administrators and increase actual medical staff. Bring in a nominal monthly fee (20 quid) to families that earn better than 20K a year. All police would be required to take courses in Law and Ethics, and Public Relations. Increase the police force for better coverage. Bring back the beat bobby. Seriously crack down down on underage age drinking, drinking in public, and retail outlets and persons supplying liquor and cigarettes to minors. Increase fines by 10 fold. Abolish the young offenders act, introduce name and shame, decrease the age to be tried as an adult to 16. Make parents responsible for paying restitution and truancy. Abolish young offender detention centers and introduce military schools. Remove all priviledges in prison ie. TV, pool tables, wieghtrooms, introduce work programs re-education and labour camps. Abandon manditory early release, only for exemplary behaviour and showing true commitment to becoming useful member of society. Introduce manditory 10 year probation upon release from prison. Increase military spending, so when we do get into a conflict, we can kit out our soldiers with the best equipment and technology available. Increase education spending, afterschool programs, care programs, community centers, make national tests the hardest on earth. Make education manditory to age 18, introduce skilled trade programs in schools from age 16, so if you want to do a trade, you have two years of apprenticeship in by age 18. Abolish 24 hour drinking. Make a standard of 2am to serve booze. Then it's up to club or pub owner to close the doors when they want but no later than 3am. Decrease the pay scale of MP's, make the house of lords a vote in house. Introduce a constitution. Increase spending and incentives to integration services and programs, support groups. Close the door to open immigration, complete and thorough back round checks on asylum seekers, immediate deportation of illegal immigrants, immigrants who commit crimes, automatic deportation regardless of circumstances, that includes any dependants. There is more to but I don't want to write a manifesto.

I'd change the Reform the Benefit System. Freaking layabouts are a dag gone drain to society.

i'd do all of the above and then take anyone who is not true british (ie.100 year history) and give them a choice, deportation or execution. That would relieve the education system a bit, so extra money can fund more brit nurses

regrettably,I wouln't even have a chance of becoming a M.P. let alone prime minister,the reason being that I am a relatively honest person and not a good liar.
