What changes would you make to this country if you were Prime Minister to make it a better place?

I would make all supermarkets a not for profit organisation to allow fairer prices for the producers and also the consumer without payments to shareholders and board members in between.

Down with Asda and Down with Tesco!

..and down with all the small independent dealers who cant hope to compete with a non profit making behemoth like Tesco?
 
Reverse the soft drinks industry sugar levy and get our pop back. Although to be honest, it's far too late for that now, as companies have realised they can make more profit this way and the majority of people somehow don't seem to notice that their soft drinks taste like cr@p now.
 
I'm fairly lazy so would copy someone else's homework/ideas.

Probably Sweden or Denmark's.

Would also look to join that massive trading block sitting on our doorstep. But that feels like a bit of a no-brainer and too obvious maybe........
 
I'd resurface every tarmac, concrete, cobbled road in the country. To be replaced with porous asphalt. Goes some way to solving the flooding issues and fixes the quite frankly disgraceful road network.

Bring the education curriculum into the modern age and bring "living as an adult" education into the curriculum. Things such as financial planning, cooking as a must do lesson and not a GCSE choice, social skills and world affairs. Less focus on shakespeare, algebra and religious studies for example, have those three as a choice lesson.

Get rid of charity food banks to be replaced with a government assisted program accessible by all.

Every town/village with more than 500 people in it will have at least one accessible AstroTurf pitch for multi use from football to hockey and everything in between.
 
Build loads and loads and loads of council housing. No excuses. No b***ks. Millions of the *******. Like we did after the war. Housing sorted.

Then I'd bring in carbon rationing. Environment sorted. Equality sorted.

I'd also make sure that when you rented a car you got the car you tried to rent. Car rental sorted.

Free pork chops. Pork chops sorted.

Directly tie the funding of the BBC to the funding of the royal family, so that if you defund one, you defund the other. Culture war sorted.
 
4 day work weeks. We're working too much.

Have a nationalised bank. 1 account per person. £10 credited to each account every month. That'd cost a negligible amount for the country now but it'd mean we had a UBI system in place ready for when we need it.

Nationalise utilities. Stop the untreated sewage going into the country's rivers and streams.
