What campaign would you start?

I'm better off and live in a bigger house since leaving London, same job and same salary minus london weighting.
I now live in a 4 bed house in a nice area of bristol, that I own, versus renting a one bed flat in an ok area of London.

Additional cost of living in London is not even nearly covered by what most companies offer as London weighting.

4-bedder in Redland doesn't come cheap though :)
 
I'd start a campaign to protect playing fields and open spaces for kids to play in. Regular football/cricket/rugby/golf comps with good facilities and professional organisation/coaching. Give parents somewhere to take kids at the weekend that doesn't cost the earth, and that teaches and encourages kids to interact outdoors.

A positive side effect of this would be that beer gardens are free of unsupervised hordes of kids at the weekend....
 
no campaigns about irrelevant minor annoyances- I'd make some real positive contributions to help needy people especially children, homeless and the sick.

In our difficult times I find conspicuous consumerism and shows of wealth to be vulgar and shameful in the extreme. Want to make folk who don't have very much feel s**t or envious - then that's the way to go. Stir up resentment - that's the way to go. And out of resentment comes anger - and from anger comes strife.

A bit of wealth distribution and not being frightened of really challenging those who have a lot - and call their bluff over leaving the UK. The country is knacked - and much vaunted free market capitalist concept of the rich generating wealth to filter down to the rest is just not going to work - partly because it requires free-market capitalism and it was that which brought us the bankiing collapse and the credit boom and bust. So when times are tough the rich will make sure they are quite alright thankyou before worrying about the rest of us.
 
I would bring in a breeding test. to obtain a licence to have a child you must first pass the rooter test. (i have named it already)

IQ above 90
BMI below 25
not be ugly (i am still working on the scoring mechanism to this)

Basically, i am wanting to create a super race. similar to Hitler, but i think my implementation will be slightly less harsh as people can believe in what ever god they want etc, not bothered about that as long as they don't bother me with their views. ;-)

:rofl:

Man is indeed the only animal actively working against the principle of Natural Selection!

And managing to screw up the globe in the process too!
 
I'd def campaign against excessive packaging (primarily on foodstuffs) Next would be dodgy claims on all adverts


Then anything that Tesco want I'd campaign against...(substitute supermarket of your choice :D)
 
Anything to do with traffic.

People parking in disabled/parent&child bays
Going down the outside of a queue then cutting in
Fog lights (again) especially in the rain
Tailgating
Doing 30mph on unrestricted 60mph country roads

And golf related.........

Booking sheets
Slow play
Buggies
2 shots on a hole :eek:

That should do to start a bit of a 'debate'......................
 
I'd start a campaign to have 4x4s banished from the public highway and to make the use of indicators compulsory for all drivers, especially those of high-powered German manufacturers.


;)
 
Oops, forgot injury lawyers :angry:

Absolutely with you on this one bobmac. How about we all start accepting a bit of responsibility for our own actions rather than always trying to find someone else to blame.

Or maybe a campaign against celebrity campaigners who use/exploit the media. Their campaigning often get a lot more coverage and often come to fruition because of their celebrity rather than the merit of the campaign. My case in point is Ms Joanna Lumley and the Gurkhas. Well... that not so young lady should/dare not show her face/legs in Aldershot in the near future. All very well the morals of the campaign - but you ask Aldershot of the impact it's had...

I drive a 4x4 and don't indicate often (i have owned lots of BMW so never learned)

I drive a 4x4 as i needed a 7 seat car and refused to drive a "family wagon"

And in a similar vein - campaign to make it law that drivers must have dipped headlights on when driving - regardless of weather conditions or time of day (or night).
 
LOL well, What's your IQ, BMI and general look? did you fall from the ugly tree? check my idea!! you might not like me when i get in power! ;-)

Don't forget, stupid fat ugly people are a majority, and they vote.. You wouldn't get into power in the first place
 
I would start a campaign for a Free Galilee. Fed up with the Judean Peoples Front and the Peoples' Front of Judea getting all the publicity.

"Fwee Brian!"

My campaigns would be free Terry's choc orange for all 54yr olds, until late October this year when it wouldbecome fwee to all 55yr olds.

The introduction of litre glasses in all pubs.
The removal of OOB from the left of all holes for the occasional duck hucker!!
All greens to be bowl shaped.

Long live President Bobmac!
