Personally i would change the new anti-smoking laws(in Britain,Not sure about anywhere else),I think it's totally unnecassary to have a blanket ban on smoking in all public places,Including bars.There is no reason why public building's cannot have designated smoking area's,With proper ventilation so non smokers wouldn't be affected at all,Anyway what is your law change going to be?

I would make a law that people who are unfit shouldn't have kids. We have tests for everything or age limits but yet the most important thing in life, raising kids, we let anyone do it. I know it would be impossible but there are a lot of fools out there who aren't in any condition to be reproducing.

Given the chance, I'll make a law about anti squatting. I really don't want to see lots of squatters. When it comes to squatters issue, am wondering why the government officials seems so blind not helping them and just allowed them to continue living in a very slam area.

The law that i would change is Where Rape is concerned. right now their is a statute of limitations on it. That is the part that i would change. I would make it like murder where it never runs out when the charges can be filed. to many rapists get away because some women have such a hard time coming forward with what has happened to them.

Hi there interesting question!! I think I would change the seat belt law. I think wearing a seat belt should be a choice and not a law. We all know the risks of not buckling up and if we choose not to then we should not have to pay fines because of it. You always hear law enforcement people saying how a person received just minor injuries because they were wearing their seat belt, but I personally know of an incident where a teenager would not have been killed if he had not been buckled in, the seat belt actually killed him and they said he could have been saved if he had been thrown from the car.
