I'm not British, but if I was one, and the PM, here's what I'd do: I'd sell most state-owned property, intergrate further with the EU, relax immigration further, and lobby to replace the House of Lords with a Senate.

integrate further with Europe and push for advancement of a federal europe project, and sign up for the Euro. legalise cannabis in all its forms. reform drug laws so posession of hard drugs is no longer a criminal offence (only dealing) and set up a state re-habilitation programme for addicts. nationalise some industries (railwasys for eg), reform welfare and provide more state free shelter for the homeless. spend shitloads more on education - take the funds out of the defence budget. Either disarm or push for the European Defence Force to be made. thats about it i think...

I'd use a pear (look it up, dealing with the Inquisition) on George Bush. That would be at the top of my agenda. Then I would make efforts to disband the British royalty, since they are a symbol of undermining my power. Then I'd use the pear again.

Given that you are a mod I can't say how I really feel about that.

I'm glad that you like economic chaos however.

Telling the EU to piss up a rope would be first on my list.

Second would be to tally up the cost and value of everything ever spent on helping to develop Commonwealth countries and their economies and send them a bill.

Third would be to pull out of the UN, since its fairly obvious they can't do a damn thing with out the UK or the US doing it for them.

Finally, I'd pay off Bush, since the only way I could become PM would be to have his help in rigging the election. :)

You confuse 'economic chaos' with 'decent government' it seems.

I'd declare war on America!

If in the impossible event I were named Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, I would probably call for a conference with President Bush and outline my objections to the war in Iraq. I would then rescind the British law that's similar to the American Patriot Act and I would call for a pullout of forces in Iraq.

I would then ask Parliament to officially declare Canada, Australia, and New Zealand independent of the Crown, as their membership in the United Kingdom is no more than a formality.

Finally, I would call for a summit with the leaders of the Northern Ireland rebels and the Irish leadership in an effort to negotiate real peace there.

That must explain how he's won two elections by huge majorities :rolleyes:
I think London knows a bit better than you do.

Yes, and Arthur Scargill managed the same trick. Some people are leaders, some people are panderers. Livingston et al, fall into the latter catagory.

Well, if I became PM of the UK, my first order of business would be to get a private tutor to teach me a British accent. :)

No you don't. I have more right to say he's one of the few decent politicians in the country and he actually gets things done. I have the right to vote him in.
You can just sit on your side of the Atlantic complaining that London has the brains to elect a decent, Socialist leader.

Boo-hoo myrth.

Well done. My Grandfather died from mining. He got meso, and none of your little socialist friends give a fuck, so well done. You know who else is my grandmam's mp.Tony fucking Blair. Who has done jack shit for miners widows, despite his borough. So fuvk off myrth, until you get yourself some decent working class roots don't talk to me about who is, and who is not, the right person to lead us,

Wow, great move flaming a moderator, huh?

And don't give me that shit about 'the right person to lead us'. I can see your IP. Livingstone is the right person to lead London. The elections seem to show this rather well. Ken makes London work.

Yeah that's right. I live in the US now. I do however know exactly where Tony Blair and his like place his seat, and they did fuck all for my grandad. I was born in Croxdale myrth, look it up. Just after that the colliery was closed, so don't give me the "I know" about socialism. At least I lived it for a while. By the by, had I stayed there, tony blair would have been my MP. Also Livingston is a middle class fuck who needs a boot up his arse.

Edit: I am not a middle class socialist. Wankers.

I'd have high tea weekly with the Queen, and invite Margaret Thatcher over for dinner once a month, despite her condition. I'd also be a conservative. And I know how the majority of you Brits hate conservatives. *Gives evil laugh and rumbs hands togeather in a sinister fashion*

(Just Kidding-I'm not British, so I'm not any more familiar with any situations you people have than what I see on the BBC America World News. It would be cool to be PM, though. In some ways better than President of the United States.)

*Spends next 1/2 hour imagining myself at Buckingham Palace chatting animatedly with the Queen*
