Wildlife Corridors

Wildlife corridors are belts of land which join one reasonable patch of habitat to another. There should be far more effort in producing and suitably managing these corridors. Also, there should be viable patches of habitat dotted around all large areas of farmed land.

These areas of wildlife habitat do not have to be redundant; they could be farmed, sustainably, and therefore benefit both the human community and the local wildlife.

You may feel the need to steal land from other animals but you do not have to steal it all!!!!!

Marriage Contracts

There is a growing debate in Britain about the Law governing couples, married or otherwise. I may have a solution!?

Turn marriage ceremonies into a non-legally binding event and create Domestic Contracts and Emotional Contracts. Domestic Contracts would cover money, belongings and residence etc while Emotional Contracts would cover other issues. This is not properly thought through so may require revision!

Prison

There is far too much emphasis on punishment and there are nowhere near enough constructive opportunities for those in prison. For the majority of people sent to British prisons the system does not work.

Single cell accommodation was invented many years ago: where is it now?

Why should prisoners be discouraged from attending classes and groups which are available by being paid more for doing work activities?

Perhaps many people who are sent to conventional prisons would benefit from being somewhere more useful to both themselves and the public in general.

Prisons need to be successes, not failures.

More positivity, More proactivity!
