If you could punch/slap a political figure (past or present) who would it be, and why?

I wouldn’t, and someone already got to Prescott!! But I’ve love to land a few political punches on Gordon Brown – Why?
Because the last 10 years of his spending will be paid for by the next generation, and that is just plain unfair!

If you could go for a drink with a political figure (from past of present) who would it be, and why?

Williams Hague – To see if I could do the 14 pint challenge!

What would you do with £5,000,000?

Give £1m to charity,

stick a £1m in a pension fund,

£1m on a luxury flat in London,

£1m on a country pad

and £1m for a few years without having to work…

If you had to name the biggest single problem from the last 10 years of Labour government, what would it be?

Spending our future and Pensions. It might be a depressing thing to think about at my age, but Labour have turned a first class pensions system into the worst in Europe – all in 10 years! The reality is we will all have to work until we are 80 and even then retire with nothing. Labour have abolished every incentive for individuals to save for the future.

Where’s your favourite place in the world?

I don’t know, to holiday you can’t beat America for an all round package, but if I were to choose somewhere to spend the rest of my life it would be London – for a city it’s amazingly diverse, and offers everything you could ever need.

If you weren’t answering these questions, what would you be doing?

Well, I’ve just clocked off from work, so probably having a drink or two down the pub. I work for ICE (Institution of Civil Engineers) in Westminster, working with the Energy and Waste Management panels to filter into government consultations and influence policy.

If you could repeal a law, which would it be?

Hunting ban, ID Cards, 28-day detention with-out trial… there are so many bad laws, badly worded laws and laws that fail to meet their purpose that we need to review huge chunks of legislation.

If you could create a law, what would it be?

I probably actually wouldn’t make any new laws. not for a while at least. We have plenty of scope to change things without changing the law all the time. The volume of legislation in the last 10 years is equal to that of the previous 50. We need to get away from new laws being the answer to every problem.

What don’t you like about politics?

People not answering questions. As a politician you have a duty to represent the people and be accountable to them. If you don’t answer questions I think you fail in that duty. Every week watching PMQs I find myself more and more irate at the Prime Ministers unwillingness to give an answer and instead stating an unrelated fact that (he thinks) makes Labour look good!

Which blogs do you read daily?

I only really check out Politicshome on a daily basis; but normally log on to Tory Bear, Con Home and a few others a couple of times a week.

Obama or McCain?

McCain

When do you think Brown will call an election in the UK?

2010. No Question.

What would you like to see Cameron be stronger on?

Tax reform. We need to show we are prepared to change the way tax is levied and simplify the tax system. It’s a hard issue to discuss with voters though, and far from a ’sexy’ vote winning policy. I know why he isn’t stronger on it, but I live in hope that in will be in the manifesto come 2010.

What do you most hope to achieve in life?

Happiness; I know that sounds very simple, but I think there is very little point doing anything in life if you are unhappy about it.
