Five things that the next administration, of whatever hue, needs to do

1. Renovate the Houses of Parliament. It is unacceptable for this nation's laws to be determined in a building that is falling apart.
2. Make some serious steps into reigning in the bad behaviour of MPs in the Commons. It is supposed to be a debating chamber, not a shouting chamber.
3. Look into some serious devolution to the English regions; we cannot have a continuing inequality of powers in this matter.
4. Do a council tax re-banding and re-valuation. It's long overdue.
5. Make a decision, one way or the other, on Trident renewal.
