  1. When an organisation (yes, I'm looking at you Tesco, but so many others too) listens to one individual or lobby group, it has to listen to representatives of all the other protected characteristics and support them all equally.
  2. Single sex provision to be mandatory. No playing with words.
  3. When housing is built, the appropriate infrastructure must go with it (schools, sports facilities, access to doctors & dentists, road improvements, meeting rooms, libraries, green spaces, etc).
  4. If a house builder gets planning permission & local approval by promising to build a certain number of affordable homes, if they then declare it uneconomical to build said affordable homes, planning permission is automatically withdrawn.

All new houses to be fitted with a wind turbine and/or solar panels and/or a ground source heat pump when they are being built, and lots of financial help to convert existing houses.

Gender Recognition Repeal Act

Equality Amendment Act removing Gender reassignment as a protected characteristic and making female single sex spaces a requirement.

Passport and other official ID act making it a requirement for sex to be sex

Banning teaching of gender ideology in law and making transitioning children (including social transitioning) a criminal offence.

Yes. Except I'd be happier with no EQA and a return to the race, disability and sex discrimination legislation we had before. Maternity, breastfeeding etc would all be covered under sex anyway. We were sold a pup.

Men have to pay for their children. Take it out of their pay packet directly.

For children to be treated equally in terms of their existing legal rights to education. Due to the overloaded system that the Tories have not funded properly, a lot of kids with SEND have been missing years of their education waiting for a suitable school place that meets their needs.

I'll add - any charity, NGO, company, CIC or any other organisation in receipt of public money to be subject to FOI

I'd like to see it made compulsory that companies remain politically neutral.

It's their job to sell clothes, shoes, food, etc or provide a service. Not to impose views on clients/customers.

jail time for water companies shoving shit in our rivers. Oh, and the death penalty for shoplifting-that would sort the fuckers out.

And the infrastructure has to be built first. Too many times developers say they will build x,y and z and then piss off as soon as they've put the houses up.

Illegal to knowingly lie or refuse to answer if asked by an authorised person what your biological sex is. Or to knowingly lie to anyone about your biological sex if you're going to perform an intimate medical or cosmetic procedure.

Edited

I see Blair has had another go today with his ID cards. Tbh the gender ideologists risk forcing this to biometrics to keep determined male people out of spaces needed by females.

JellySaurus · 07/07/2024 18:06

Repeal the GRA.

Give the CMS more teeth to require absent parents to contribute a sensible amount towards their children's upbringing.

Reform of the planning system, and the way developers 'game' the system is well overdue.

I'll add a couple:

  • 'None of the Above' option on ballot papers
  • State funding of political parties. It's controversial, I know. But the present system of funding just leads to corruption. I'd greatly reduce the permitted amount for individual and corporate donations. One possibility is an option on ballot papers where everyone gets a separate vote on which party to fund (including none). That gets taken in to account along with some formula based on number of seats held (and possibly other factors).
