    You do realize everybody runs the country, not the 650 odd MP's in parliament.

    Every good or service you provide the UK is a small part of the running of the country. Nick Clegg leads the Liberal Democrat party, his job is to pass policies into law that fit the political rhetoric of his party, he has tried to do this, we have the fixed term parliaments and we also had the referendum on the alternative vote. All he does is pose legislation to parliament and vote on other parties reform proposals... He is just a tiny part in the national machine.

    He could not produce every good and service in the country.

    The UK is dying from the cancer ,greed, selfishness, corruption, immigration and obscene wages. It does not need to cost billions to create jobs eg.if the government guarantee the first 15% of a mortgage repayment the banks would lower deposits required to 5%.This would create a boom in house building and several thousand jobs.Real Job creation is not rocket science and does not need to cost billions.You give me an industry and I will tell you how to create an environment for investment and jobs.The government must legislate on tax avoidance and if a company is found using these methods the government should have the power to tax on UK turnover.These companies and their accountants must be fined. We must teach, with power comes responsibility not immorality. Money paid to an individual from the UK must pay UK NI and tax.The people MUST fight back.Not by striking or demonstrating [this is ignored] but by exposing the corruption of politicians,banks, big business and the rich.Any one with information about tax avoidance,cheating expenses,insider dealing ,offshore accounts etc. should use the media to bring them to justice and their wealth must be confiscated .If an MP gives grants or contracts to a friend or family tell the media . The police should prosecute where they can.A person in power should not be able to resign and get away scot free .Public figures should have exposed their salaries,bonuses and expenses published.The elite should have untaxed money in tax havens exposed and disposed. The police, owe nothing to the MP,s so should look at them through a microscope.Three large businesses have been exposed for tax avoidance and then let off.Accountants using tax avoidance methods should be exposed .Surveys should be done by the media asking things like do you want the government to stop mass immigration like they promised or should the government legislate against tax avoidance or do you want a vote on EU membership or should foreign aid be stopped while so many of our own people live in poverty or should the tax payer continue to spend over 100 million pounds a year on feeding addicts methadone..It is no good just waiting for the next election as they are all as corrupt as each other.If you love this country as I do then dish the dirt or the cancer will be terminal.My eyes fill with shame when I see people pilfering from supermarket skips for food and the ever increase of food shelters.Make no mistake this is a war that is doing more damage to the UK than WW11, only the enemy is within.We are now shaping the UK for our children, by exposing corruption,dishonesty immorality a leader will emerge who will love the country as I do and serve the people.The UK desperately need a roll model for morality.Every day we hear about another corrupt MP stealing public money and getting away with it so no one can trust our politicians.Our celebrities admit taking drugs and still get media attention.Our rich people boast about their tax avoidance. Our industry leaders move billions of untaxed money to offshore accounts using tax loopholes.When exposed these people are not punished because they are rich.The UK is ruled by greed and selfishness with corruption the norm.We need one person to say NO MORE .One honest person who is fair and commits to cut this immoral cancer out of our country. This person will not have attended a private school or have millions stashed in offshore tax havens .
