A new law

If you could make just ONE new law, what do you think it might be?

Re: A new law

That people in public office who break the law should lose their jobs. I'm particularly thinking of MPs and Lords of the land.

Re: A new law

Hi
No one is allowed to become an MP unless they have spent one year on Minimum Wage on a Zero Hours Contract whilst living in rented accommodation without any other form of income other than Benefits.

Then we would see some changes.

Re: A new law

Swimfeeders..oh how I wish that would become a reality ...sadly it will never be. That would be a perfect law in my book too!
MPs have no concept of how an awful lot of people are struggling in the country today.

Re: A new law

I think there is a flaw in that logic as anyone with the 'get up and go' and committment to campaign and become an MP, would also find a way to get employment and a house.

My law - no more development on green belt land until every last inch of 'brown field' sites and renovation of existing buildings had been used up.
I would also outlaw the use of gardens as building sites.

I would welcome that one another is all secondary school children before leaving education should spend a day as a disabled person, either blind, deaf or in a wheel chair. It may make future generations act more kindly to people.

Pass a law that people who think they are hard up spend a year being hard up.
The endless griping on these threads from people who think they are hard up , yet do not know what hard up is, has become a mental illness.

Also a new law for free sex for the over sixty-fives on prescription.

Re: A new law

My new law would be that everyone convicted of a crime, whether prince or pauper, actually serves the time - all of it !!
No time off for good behaviour, that's expected, but an increase in their sentence for bad behaviour!
