Letter to David Cameron (2)?
Comments please. Dear Sir, Below are my thoughts on how you can make yourself the most popular politician in centuries, and make our country a better place in which to live. These are not in an order of importance. Falkland Islands’ oil discovery. There has as I’m sure you are aware recently been a discovery of massive oil deposits near The Falkland Islands. The revenue from this must accrue to the Exchequer of The United Kingdom and must not under any circumstances accrue to the Treasury of the Falkland Islands. These monies’ will form a “seed corn†to make the UK the envy of the world, so simply put: Money from Falkland’s oil to UK, not Falkland’s government. This may require retrospective legalisation and will provoke no doubt protests from the inhabitants of the Falklands, so be it, this will be a storm worth riding out. I speak as a South Atlantic medal holder; to think that the war was fought with no benefit to the UK is anathema to me. Vote winner-large. (See defence) Defence. Trident: Scrap it, the system will never be used, waste of money and resources. If it is considered necessary to have a nuclear deterrent purchase a few dozen Cruise missiles which can be nuclear-tipped and launched from submarines. Vote winner-large The defence of the Falkland Islands must be strengthened, position at least 5 squadrons of fighter bombers aircraft at RAF Mount Pleasant . At least 3 nuclear powered submarines to be positioned to intercept any attempt by the Argentine Republic to convey an invasion force to the islands. At least 20 surface naval vessels must also be stationed near the Falklands to similarly deter any Argentinean aggression. Land forces of at least 5,000 must be stationed on the islands, believe me Argentina will never give up its aspiration to seize them. Vote winner-small, But imagine if you went down in history as the Prime Minister who lost The Falklands and all that revenue. Afghanistan Leave. There is nothing to the benefit of the UK in staying. We will have to go sooner or later as a defeated army, leave now and stop the terrible bloodshed currently being suffered by our gallant troops. How will you feel if “on your watch†the death toll rises to 1,000? The incursion must be seen for what it was, a ruse by New Labour Marxists to commit our once proud armed forces to an unwinnable campaign in order to humble, belittle and decimate them. The war is unwinnable, let’s be bold enough to admit we have made a terrible mistake. Our armed forces’ first priority must be the Defence of The Realm, not Blair’s foreign adventures. Vote winner-huge. Foreign aid. Cease all foreign aid immediately. Aid being given to countries which have Space Programmes and nuclear weapons? Ridiculous. I don’t believe you could possibly understand how this largesse is hated by ordinary people. Ring-fence Foreign Aid but cut Defence spending, how does that look to the common man? Vote winner-astronomical. Immigration. All to cease forthwith, except of course from the EU. This ban to include students, family members of those already here. Asylum seekers, to be incarcerated as illegal immigrants, no more allowed freedom. Logic, they have escaped to stay alive, in jail they are protected and alive. Soon they’ll go elsewhere and it won’t be our problem. Vote winner-astronomical. Crime and punishment. Keep all our present laws and penalties with the following changes. Anyone found guilty of a crime which could attract a sentence under today’s rules is to be incarcerated until his 105th birthday, thus if the offender is 20 years of age he would receive a sentence of 85 tears, if 30 years of age 75 years and so on. There will be no right of appeal against sentence. (The 105 year law) After about 6 months of this being in operation crime will be non-existent. Prisoners to do useful work in jail, or no privileges. Vote winner-astronomical. Identity cards. Proceed but also obtain DNA samples from everybody. All adults to have fingerprints taken and affixed to ID card with DNA details. Vote winner-medium, but huge when both these measures make the UK a crime free country. Unemployment benefits. All able bodied claimants are to be employed on public works as a condition of claiming benefit. Unable bodied persons can work in offices overseeing the employment and deployment of the able bodied. But at the very least get 40 hours a week work out of them. (It will also keep them out of the pubs) Offer “old-style†apprenticeships to young people, get them earning instead of going to University to obtain a “non-degreeâ€. Vote winner-huge. Tobacco products. Give due warning, then ban them outright, Finland is about to. Vote winner-extremely negative but again a storm worth riding out. Sun beds As above. Vote winner-slightly negative. Climate Change. (AGW) Most of the British voters do not believe in this unproven theory. They do

I expect he wants to win the election though. Also I shouldn't think he's too keen on throwing away what's been gained in Afghanistan and probably losing our alliance with America in the process.
