    I've had a brilliant idea

    1. Abolish the government
    2. Abolish all taxes


    Instead, every policy and decision will be made by a central computer (managed by Simon Cowell) that sends every adult in the UK a txt. You reply with your vote and are charged £1.50 (plus your normal carrier charges).

    e.g.

    "Should we allow in more immigrants?"
    "Increase spending on schools and reduce it on wars?"
    "Carpet at Westminster, stick to blue or change it to green?"
    etc.

    Result. True democracy and a lot of money extracted from the proles.

    yeah Simon Cowell and a linch mob is all we need i.e. the taste of a middleaged Gay man followed up by women with bingo wings and men with Chernobyl brainless heads. A government of the "Britain's got talents".
    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        Hang on, isn't that what we have already? A self-styled "government of all the talents" ?

          I think I preferred Clarkson's idea of "the man in the pub". or better still Clarkson himself.

            Keep some tradition - have a speaker or in this case speakers using Ant & Dec

              I thought you'd see what I did there!
