I would neglect policy and just use my new found status to meet celebrities and as a chat up line!
Failing that, lowering the 28 day detention without charge to something a lot lower is a good start...(England)

Umm, no. I would not. I'd find myself some good advisors to help me out at first, and start studying. Unless I know how the country will react to my action, I won't make any foolish moves. But raising the education budget is a safe bet. I don't know about other places, but in Canada Middle Schools tend to really suck. I'd fix that.tkioz said:
Cap professional sports, actors/actresses, musicians wages. Seriously, imagine how amazing the film industry would be if producers didnt have to pay millions of pound for ONE actor.
Combine this with grants for films/games/authors/musicians and we would have a lot more cultural acheivements.
Allow the police some more flexibility, as they are limited within Britain.
Pass more laws to maintain that immigrants will be allowed into our country ONLY if they have qualifications or a trade that they can work in.
Im in Britain btw.

Many many things....
But he first thing I'd do is remove our unfair first past the post electoral system and bring in propotional representation, but to avoid tiny parties only give seats in parliament to those parties with more than 10% of the vote. Following this I'd bring back free university places and remove about 90% of the pointless legislation Blair and Brown have imposed upon us...

Well as much as they say they could, I don't trust the hairdressers and taxi drivers.bernthalbob616 said:
Well, I'd remove any kind of cencorship for any kind of media, games included of course.
Gay marrige is allredy legal here (YAY), so what else...
I would tighted up the immigration laws here. Seriously, we let anyone in here. There is this town called Södertälje, in a month, they took in more people from Iraq then USA did IN A YEAR.
All companys owned by the state would have to go plus and not live out of funding.
EDIT: Oh yeah, Forgot, I live in Sweden.

You're already more qualified than most leaders, as you have the sense to understand you've got a tough job ahead of you, and don't have this idea that you should be leader and have answers for everything, which is a strange concept when you see anyone in power interviewed, as they all seem to be playing the 'yes/no' game, avoiding answering anything at all cost.zen5887 said:
I'm all for capping all earnings at around £1 million per year, along with many of the above, there's no harm in someone making a lot of money and becoming rich, but, think of the fields that people get stupidly rich in.
Sport, Music, Entertainment.
Shouldn't all of those be filled with people who actively want to achieve the best in their chosen field? Not because they'll get a stack of money, but because of a drive to succeed, achieve and create. Also, putting a cap on huge earnings would ensure that instead of, say, Lily Allen earning £10 million this year, maybe 200 artists could earn £50,000, giving them the freedom to concentrate on their art instead of doing 50 hours a week in their local Tesco, scanning endless copies of the latest Lily Allen CD.
I know there's huge problems in actually putting this plan into practice, but, really I think once you hit around £1 million per year, it's just numbers and you're chasing a rich list and trying to 'outdo' other rich people to feed your ego. It amazes me when you hear about an actor being offered $20 million to do a movie, offer him a million, if he doesn't want to do it, he's not right for the part. Find a good unknown and give him his break. Surely an actor who wants to act in your movie is going to be better than a famous guy who doesn't want to be there.
As for immigration, I'm against stopping people coming in unless they're useful, but we should only allow asylum seekers, not just everyone.
I'd also bring in a law that judges must retire at 60, I'm sick to death of doddery old fuckers an inch from the grave deciding rapists are innocent because the woman showed her ankles and the like.
I'd also look to install some transparency in government, for instance, human rights, health n safety, politcal correctness, I'd LOVE to show how much of the stuff you hear about is completely MADE UP by the papers purely to enrage their, and I use this term loosely, 'readership'. However I would like to chase the view of PC that the Discworld's Vimes has, in short'
'That foreign guy has just as much chance to be an annoying small-minded little tit as anyone else'
I'd also buy the rights to the Smurfs franchise, and anyone convicted of anti social behaviour, or given an ASBO would legally have to wear a government issued smurf outfit for a period of one to three months, both to make them very aware of what they did, and to warn others that they are trouble.

England: Set out specific non-smoking and smoking areas and anyone who complains about it gets to sit in the other one for a day.
Simple. Effective.
Whilst that's happening, I'd stick Brown, Cameron, and the other leaders in the Big Brother House, lock them in, and then turn the cameras off forever.

Get the IT professional that creates another database that doesn't quite work with the other half dozen databases we have to use every day and I'd publicly execute them, then leave their bodies to rot in a public place with a little sign explaining what's going on. Then all the community could come by and see what happens when you're a useless backward braindead twat!
Not that I've thought about it much...
