Which laws should be scrapped? The Deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg, is asking the public to go online and tell him what rules and regulations should go. He wants us all to have a say in how to restore civil liberties and cut red tape for businesses and charities. So which ones would you nominate? The Taxpayers Alliance says the ID Cards Act and the Digital Economy Act should be ditched. The TUC wants to scrap the VAT exemption on private school fees. Suggestions from elsewhere include getting rid of double yellow lines along high streets to help small businesses and abolishing the Human Rights Act. So which laws would cut bureaucracy and curb the nanny state? Your nominations please.
