I remember loitering by the Gangway in Jersey once as the local police escorted a couple of wayward 18-30 year old animals back on board , one had the birch , apparently no-one ever went back for seconds , kept the Island really quiet . I think the old corrupt copper , wa sbad , but teh replacement new efficient 5'2" model is bogged down with paperwork , i would take away the paperwork they have to fill in for stop and searches , and let them police the streets

BAN IMMIGRATION,
Deport every illegal pronto, including the Abu Quatada NOW.
GET OUT OF eUROPE NOW, NOT TOMORROW. AND TAKE EVERY EUROPEAN BACK TO WENCE THEY CAME.
******S MUST OBEY CHRISTIAN LAWS OF THIS COUNTRY, THE WAY CHRISTIANS HAVE TO OBEY ISLAMIC LAWS IN ISLAMIC COUNTRIES.
Bring back the lash for criminals, they only offend once.
Stop exporting Jobs,
STOP ALL AID to EVERY Country. Fix this country first, it is our tax payers money , not the governments.
That will do for starters.

Just my Views
Give back the Parent powers to at least give a smack to the naughty Boys and Girls,no harsh stuff though,but as the old saying went 'Spare the Rod and Spoil the Child" we as younger Kids were i am sure all given a good smack now and again,i know my dear Dad used to have an old Army Belt,and we got it on the Legs good and proper,it never done us any harm! These days you can hardly look at your Kids without being told to "Watch Yourself" bleedin madness!
As also said by Capt,bring back the lash! or as we had it the Cane (All sizes and thicknesses used by the SA Police for various crimes comitted!) I know i was one naughty Lad at one stage and had six of the best with one of them Canes! As the second lash came across the rear end the first lash broke open and the blood flowed,and so it went on for all six! That was to say very very sore! I held those Bum Cheek scares for many many years! Cricky i can tell you once over me and my acomplice never did anything like that again,well for many Years haha!
Bring back the Hanging for those crimes that really desreve it,there are far too many getting away as they say "With Murder"
Yes increase the other sentences too,so many are getting away scott free for crimesw that deserve a period behind bars!
Whats happening with our Justice Systems all over the World ??
I had better end here or i could land up saying more than i should! Or have i allready LOL!
Cheers
Now for a cool Ginger Beer to relax the tension ! Grrrrrrrr!!

bring back identity cards.it caught a few spies during the war. modern methods will make them foolproof. make all immigrants learn english like they have to in usa.any immigrant who breaks the law send them and thier families back to where they came from. they must all obey our laws, this includes only one wife.if they want to wear traditional clothes, with the face covered, or turbans, then they cannot have driving licences.
