      12)Make it compulsory for all able-bodied people over the age of 5 years to do at least two sessions of exercise per week. The sessions must last at least 30 minutes and must be on different dates (ie you can't get away with doing a single 1 hour session per week).

          Good plan - helps reduce CO2 emissions as well if there is no engine. Kind of like The Flintstones, really, when you think about it.

                  Looks like a lot of that came from the BNP and UKIP manifesto
                  Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                    I was psyching myself up for a long response, commenting upon most of the things you said. I see where you are coming from and I can see the sense in some of it so it was not going to be a personal attack.

                    Sadly, the poor spelling, grammar and punctuation eventually got to me. I can handle someone having a rant and their English deteriorating as a consequence, but your standard of writing is poor in a way suggesting you were either badly educated or unable to be educated well. That does you a great disservice in that it makes your opinions appear less worthy, which is a shame, for you clearly have something to say.

                    For examples, I do believe you are right about getting coppers on the beat (it is why the Police force was invented, FFS) and respecting alien cultures, and whilst I would like to see a simplified tax system (history has repeatedly shown government intervention in new markets by taxation is A Bad Idea) I just know the buggers would use it as a means to complicate things and raise even more tax.

                    Instead I shall simply say: the changes required to enact your proposals would themselves have negative social implications that I do not believe you have considered. Many of those actions would have unpleasant consequences for each individual which would outweigh the benefits to the whole.

                    Attractive and simple a such things appear to be, the "state" or "nation" or "the majority" do not need rights and protection; individuals need rights and protection.
                    My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

                      More attention paid to low level crime unnerve serious criminals. More Police on the beat works. Building trust does create a better level of detection, any support person here will confirm 'walking the floor' works to improve fault resolution and customer confidence.

                      This guy has most of the right ideas but I have a suspicion he has gone too far if the reports are true.

                      Many may have been lifted from the BNP manifesto but some of my intellectual heroes are Sun Tzu & Machievelli, does that make the wisdom they impart bad? I wouldn't invite them to dinner.
