1. Abolish outdated degree system (2:1, 2:2, etc) that fails to distinguish between the mediocre and the talented and has become meaningless to employers. Replace it with a points system, e.g. history graduate 81 per cent, politics graduate 72 per cent.

2. Non-violent criminals to serve their time in the community on worthwhile projects and be monitored to ensure they do so. Increased sentences for violent offenders and an end to early release schemes. Victims to have greater say in sentencing. Immediate restoration of capital punishment for premeditated murder. Prominent sports personalities engaged to mentor young offenders. Curfews – of limited duration – to be introduced in areas where street crime is out of control. Parents of lawbreaking under-age offenders to be fined.

3. War on drunkenness. Increased prices for all alcohol. Irresponsible publicans to be fined for serving drunken customers. Spot checks introduced. Schools to have obligatory educational classes on dangers of alcoholism.

4. Increase in the level minimum wage and an end to endless welfare, compulsory vocational training for long-term welfare claimants. Absent fathers forced to pay for their children. The prospective 50 per cent income tax rate to be cancelled since it has been proven by economists to be pointless and self-defeating.  

5. Compulsory elocution lessons for all schoolchildren and a return to proper English. By this I do not mean abolishing regional accents but, rather, emphasising correct English. Schools to have classes in which children have to make clear, cogent presentations on all kinds of subjects.

6. Emphasis on British history and British values in schools. An end to multiculturalism, by which I mean rallying new arrivals around a sense of Britishness. Expulsion of militant extremists who promote overthrow of traditional UK state and laws.

7. Restoration of bobbies on the beat and visible police patrols. The end of the ludicrous notion that a heavy police presence is in some way "provocative".

8. More monitoring of news organisations to ensure that a certain share of reporting is given over to "hard" news, not "personality" news. All bodies that are public service providers, such as the BBC and the civil service, forced to divulge precise wages to staff and be made more accountable to the public.  

9. Inner city regeneration through making housing more affordable. Banks forced to re-appoint managers and re-establish personal link between the branch and the customer.

10. Abolish sensationalised drivel soap operas such as Eastenders and substitute with well-written single plays of the kind that the BBC used to produce before it catered to the kitchen sink.
