I would :
1) Convert england to be secular. Religion is not to be taught in schools except in a historical and cultural context.
2) Instead teach political and social studies.
3) All children would undergo literacy and numeracy testing. *That* is the basis of school performance. A-level results measurements would be scrapped. International Baccalaureate instead.
4) Compulsory testing of teachers, in the same way nurses are continously re-tested for their ability to teach.
5) Voting is mandatory, but you may vote "none of the above". No postal voting... either you go to the posting booth or the posting booth comes to you (specialised circumstances, as pre-arranged, a agent would come and collect your vote.). Large fines for people who don't vote (maybe £500 or something).
6) Proportional Representation : those communities with larger communities will have their representative more power, not simply a single vote.
7) Referendums can handled from the top down : in the house of commons, which the individual representatives could choose to then hold within their own constituency.
8) Army justification procedures : money going to the armed forces would have to be justified. Foreign wars would have to be on an extreme emergency only basis.
9) National Corporation Standards for workers, to prevent companies from outsourcing certain types of industry (such as customer service).
10) A national evaluation of public services, with 100% transparency to the public.
11) A seperation of the interests of public organisations in private companies, including public servants. A change in the law to stop
conflicts of interest (may be unworkable
)
12) Increase certain luxury taxes, specifically to private car owners, but on a one time only payment as opposed to fuel tax. This would be more like an inverse Council Tax, whereby the more people use a car, the less you would pay. If you have a family of 5 and 2 cars, that would be 2.5 people per car etc as opposed to 5 people one car, 5 people per car (which would be much lower tax).
Hmmm what else?
if they were not religous they probably would get on ok!
