My two favourite answers. A spot of testosterone free compassion and common sense. Won't go down well with the right wingers though.....


Balky, you're showing your age. The New Seekers indeed....

Alternatively, bring a maximum income cap (any excess goes to community projects, R&D, investment in infrastructure), help stop people thinking money is the root to happiness and success, educate on tolerance and base pride on the good things we do for others and not what we have/own. Anyone who is not very nice goes to behavioural school. Peace and love.

The will be a tax on "Selfie Sticks". The tax will be a public beating with said stick.

Personalised number plates will be maintained. However any vehicle displaying one will be crushed.

"Boy Bands" will be disbanded, there hasn't been a good one since the Monkees and there is no indication there ever will be. Anybody upset by this will be assessed under the Mental Health Act.

One more

No more career politicians, to be an MP you must have done a normal job for a minimum of 3 years, including a zero hours contract job. No more going to Uni & then straight into politics.

I'd ban Tv programs such as Eastenders,Corrie, Flog It, Strictly come dancing,Bargain Hunt and most of the low budget fly on the wall series.

Bring back Tomorrows World, Dixon of Dock Green & Z Cars, UFO, Space 1999 & maybe Charlie's Angels
