I'd start by banning Greggs and Bains and build cycle lanes all over the country. 

Don't get me wrong, i'd make sure the roads were flat for our cars as well.

Open a decent pool hall in West lothian.

I'd ban bicycles from the roads when cycle lanes are available!!! I'd also charge the ****s road tax.

Why?

 

Loads of people would cycle more if they had their own lane to do it on, It would help with the cost of living, it would help with health, it would lower the number of people going to the NHS with problems,

most people are scared to get on a bike, because the majority of car drivers are arse holes.

I'm a bit of petrol head myself, but i'm not an idiot, i can see both sides.

I stay near stirling. Loads of cycle paths linking the Hillfoots villages yet cyclists want to hog the roads especially in groups of 10 plus riders(individuals I dont mind!!).

😂 Thats obviously a bike club or something, you can surely make an exception for them, unless you want the Tour de France to have no Scottish riders, because you got angry.

I agree, but the council is making it even harder for them/us now, you have to book a slot to chuck your rubbish out.

Cost cutting wank stain basturts.

Hand the parliament back to Westminster. 

It's been an abject failure. 

Nothing good has came from it. 

We pay higher tax to give every one free prescriptions, bus passes and other nonsense. 

 

I'd dual the a9

Dual the a1

Finish the sheriffhall underpass

Make ineos at Grangemouth into a hydrogen fuel dept. 

Mandtory national service for everyone under 35 (minium of 2 years if not in full time employment or education) 

 

Mandtory farming of all usable land for growing food for us to be sustainable. 

Al school kids in summer and winter months to harvest fields when off school. 

Education on growing and eating healthy 

 

Declare war on fast food. 

Introduce a stealth tax on all chippys, chineeeses, pizza, burger joints and use it to promote healthy eating. 

 

Declare all drugs legal and tax them to generate a national health service fit for purpose.

Ban the sale of alochol to anyone under the age of 25.

Get rid of minium pricing 

Get rid of the tax in smoking 

Get rid of petrol and diesel and move towards hydrogen powered cars. 

Make all gyms free to use. 

Make shop open at 7am close at 2pm repoen at 5pm-9pm

In those 3 hours you have to excersize. 

More you do more you get paid a universal basic income each month. 

 

If you keep your bmi at optium weight you get paid for it.

City of Edinburgh, East Lothian and Midlothian.

Brighten up the streets with proper lightning , open up streets so traffic can circulate freely 

Make Greggs and Bains bigger and half price for all on a Friday, free cakes for all on a Monday 

Bring in a wage cap for politicians and councillors say £25k per annum and take away expense claims,see how they get on in the real world 

Turn the Holyrood parliament into flats for the homeless half of the building is empty anyway 

Tax the super rich with multiple assets and homes /flats who needs more than one house in the same city?

Scrap Airbnb they don't contribute to neighbourhoods or community 

Registration plates for all cyclists, electric motorised bikes and Escooters

Fine cyclists that don't use cycle lanes nor light up after dark and bring in a cycling proficiency licence 

Scrap the NHS and Reform the health service , build health centres ,build educational  infrastructure in local communities and new build site's,bring back a charge for prescriptions , fine people who don't cancel health centre, dental etc appointments

Introduce an annual 'Purge' day with the subject being adult cyclists. Their helmet cams would capture some good footage.

Bull's-eye

Remove all the people and buildings and turn it into a countrywide nature reserve and park, maybe let a few Picts wander around.

Ban the wee flashing lights that some cyclists have on their bikes.

 

Pretty sure they are banned in some other countries.

I am glad you won't ban Bayne's, their macaroni pies are immense. As are their vanilla slices.

 

I'd also increase the price the English and Welsh pay for our oil, thus making our energy bills virtually zero. The way 85 should be now.

Make it mandatory for all school pupils to attend gym sessions and make physical education/fitness and diet a more important part of learning. 

 

Provide more affordable housing and sort out the shambles of homelessness.

 

Make it a blanket 25 year jail sentence for taking class A drugs.

 

Ban the stupid alcohol laws such as 10-10 and bring back the right to do deals in pubs (happy hours etc) 

 

Have the same immigration laws as Australia.

Exile Celtic and Rangers.

 

Better yet, just redraw the border around Glasgow, and make it part of the Isle of Man or something.

I'm OK with discretely filming a set for a form check. People filming videos for Instagram and YouTube can **** off.

Insane idea but how about instead of a 'fat tax' to go into treating obesity on the NHS..

 

We use a tax on unhealthy products to subsidise cheaper fruit, vegetables, pulses, wholemeal goods etc and try to make it much cheaper to eat healthily.

I would introduce mandatory reading and spelling exams for all.  I would then introduce a Battalion of spelling Police to review all social media content created in Scotland.  Christ hope all the spelling is right in those sentences.  

 

Bains?  It is Baynes 🙂

As an adult cyclist and driver I take umbrage with this. There are some absolute bellends on bikes but the percentage of car users who are arrogant, ignorant, dangerous and almost definitely practice self love far outweigh that

It is interesting.

In Denmark drivers all give way to pedestrians and cyclists without hesitation. 

Imagine trying to introduce that type of mind set change here in Scotland.
