My Policies To Make Britain Great Again

[Mr Daily Mail]

Hello there, I am a Scottish Brexitor (yes we do exist) and these are my policies to make the UK Great Again!


Immigration
- Moratorium on unskilled and low-skilled immigration for five years, with restrictions on the residence in the UK of Bulgarian and Romanian nationals to continue.

- New international visa system with visa categories for highly skilled workers, tourists, students and family reunions

- EU Citizens who are in full time work, married to UK citizen, have siblings or parents that are UK citizens, own business that employs UK workers or have lived in country for 10 years to be given EU status visa which gives them permanent residency and eligible for UK citizenship test, EU citizens who don't fit the criteria to be deported within 12 months of exiting the EU


Culture and Media
- Abolish the license fee

- Shut down BBC Two and give the channel 2 slot to another network like UKTV, Sky, NBC, CBS, whatever to allow more competition in the UK television market

- Privatisation of Channel 4 (sell it to Discovery or BT as I heard they are interested in it)

- Privatisation of BBC and subjected to follow all OFCOM regulations (sell it to the Walt Disney Company, they own ABC, Disney Channel, ESPN networks which are similar to BBC channels I'm sure it'll be in good hands with them)

- Change BBFC ratings to U, PG, 12A and 16A, kids and teens watch 18 films all the time and parent don't care let Hollywood make money from them provided an adult is with them

- End the Watershed for TV and replace with a ratings classification system similar to the US

- Have the Video Standards Council have it's own classification for video games and other forms of media than using PEGI

- Amendment to smoking ban to give pubs and clubs choice of opening “smoking rooms”

- In the run-up to general elections have three TV debates take place broadcasted live commercial free on the five main TV channels one involving all major political parties (Con, Lab, LD, UKIP, Green, SNP, PC, DUP, SF) one head to head with the Chancellor and Shadow Chancellor and a final head to head between the Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition

- The Chancellor’s Budget announced and read out in Parliament from 7PM and require the five main terrestrial TV channels to broadcast it live so to important Prime Ministerial addresses and other important political events in Parliament and announcements Downing Street as broadcasting them at 10am is pointless as everyone is at work

Got as far as Para 1, Point 1 - and thought just what bollox the rest was going to be and didn't bother.

Stop the unskilled immigration and we will just let the crops rot in the fields, hospitals get dirtier, the beds in hotels remain unmade, the meals in our restaurants take forever to arrive - the list is long and no home grown labour will fill it. We have given our kids - even the least able or intelligent - utterly false expectations of what they can achieve. They wouldn't dream of working in the tough jobs our 'cheap, unskilled, imported labour' are happy to do.... for peanuts. Emily can't do maths, or write a legible sentence, but she knows she can be a model, or a star on reality TV. She ain't picking no fruit.

There are some doozies in that rambling mess:

Reform of prison system which prevent prisoners from interacting with each other for security purposes also allow police brutality in prisons if necessary

- Require all schools to fly the Union Jack and the flag of the patron saint of whatever respective UK nation they are in (England, Scotland, Wales, NI)

- Require all school classrooms to have a Union Jack and portrait of Queen Elizabeth II

- Require all school pupils at the start of class to make an oath of allegiance while looking at the union jack and portrait of Queen Elizabeth II that goes "I, swear that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, her heirs and successors, according to law. So help me God."

Basically its fash as fuck.

[wutang]

Open an internment camp (UK version of Guantanamo Bay) in an island in the north of the cold and rainy Scottish Highlands for extraordinarily dangerous people and enemies of the state such as terrorist suspects, paedophile suspects, gang suspects among others

Im guessing the "among others" will include


Blacks, Gays, Immigrants, Socialists, Gypsies... and of course Jews

[wutang]

- Rename the UK Government to H.M Ministry of Government with the Cabinet Office renamed to "Downing Street"

Also introduce:

Ministry of Truth
Ministry of Love

Rename the PM as "Big Brother"

" Privatise rail infrastructure"

"Migrants to UK to make tax and national insurance contributions for five years and gain UK citizenship before eligible for benefits and NHS treatment including migrants who have already settled here"

And what about refugees ? You realise they often have nothing bar the clothes they arrive in, often having got here via the people smuggling chain ? How will you treat the helpless ?

My lord, do you happen to be one of these rabid Jeremy "socialist" Corbyn/Scottish First Minister Jimmy Krankie supporters who wants rail renationalisation and also reopening of the coal mines and renationalised privately owned steel companies?

Renationalisation of the railways is too expensive and will hardly improve the rails in anyway. Most people drive cars and I can't see them being happy at their hard earned taxes going to trains they never use. Our railways need more privatisation, not less. Imagine three trains an hour from Edinburgh to London run by different companies (like the airways) rather than just one. Each company would be dying to give you a ticket leading to better fares and more innovation. If you go with the rail nationalisation route you will get is the same slow network with poorer catering services complete with disgusting sandwiches.

It should also be pointed out that Jimmy Krankie hasn't even nationalised the railways in Scotland and allowed ScotRail to continue, Why is that? Because even she knows nationalisation of the railways is the wrong way to go.

Renationalising of the railways will cost £0.

Hmmm.

I'm not sure if you're a satirical account or the real deal, Time will tell.

In the meantime, get an avatar Mr Dacre.

Is the correct answer.

However, this was about RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE.

Privatisation of that was a miserable failure. It cost lives. It was so bad, the government was forced to take over again. Let's not let Tory dogma cost more lives.

What about refugees? Are we the FIRST safe country they get to? No. So they can fuck right off.

Fucking LOL, how much tax money will go into running these trains? And how cheaper will the fares be? Please do tell.

I'm amazed at all the looney lefties in this forum who are so easily triggered at hearing different ideas opposite them in the spectrum. Though what can I expect as it si typical of the looney left who love Jeremy Corbyn and the SNP.
