If you were suddenly made a benign dictator of your country, what rules would you bring in?

Antiopa* The state pays THAT much to private care companies ??? That's disgusting. WE are paying the companies' profits then. Shock

I would make all the caring and rail companies not for profit. Or nationalise them with good surveillance.

"Every person needs to work for a year in either retail or hospitality to realise what twats the general public can be, especially at Christmas"

Like a 21st century version of National Service Grin

ppeatfruit see www.ukcareguide.co.uk (cannot link) for private companies charge for caring at home. For complex medical cases it can be up to £30 an hour
Charges vary with area of country but "average is £18-20 an hour"
A family carer will be paid by the state £64.60 a week for a minimum 35 hours a week

Cadburys to be closed down with immediate effect and not allowed to reopen until they learn to make chocolate. They may need to bring back workers who retired in the 70s to do this.

Cadbury's need to disengage from Kraft Foods and Hersheys chocolate to do this. It is crap. Although very good for the waistline..
