The Right to Self-Defence and Property

Right to Non-Lethal Defence: Individuals possess the right to use non-lethal force to defend their own lawful rights, the lawful rights of others, and their property.

• A. Clarity on Property Protection: Legally clarify and strengthen the right of homeowners and business owners to use reasonable, non-lethal force to deter theft, trespass, or vandalism, ensuring they are not penalized for defending their assets.

• B. Legal Self-Defence Training: Encourage and support community-led programs for self-protection and conflict de-escalation, focusing on lawful exercise of non-lethal defense rights.

• Fair Tax: Abolish land, wealth, and capital gains taxes. Replace them with a single, low, flat tax on earned income.

  • A. Flat Tax Implementation: Introduce a single, low-rate Flat Income Tax, eliminating complexity and distortion, and incentivizing higher productivity and earned income across all levels.

  • B. Investment Capital Liberation: Abolish taxes on capital gains, land, and wealth accumulation to dramatically stimulate investment, property development, and long-term economic growth.

  • C. Zero Tax Threshold: Implement a high personal tax-free allowance to ensure the lowest earners retain 100% of their income, supporting their ascent up the economic ladder.

• Sovereign Wealth Fund (SWF): Use non-tax revenue (VAT surplus, etc.) and the SWF to finance long-term, big-picture issues like Climate Change research and Space/Defence technology, instead of relying on taxpayer funds.

  • A. SWF Charter for Intergenerational Wealth: Establish the SWF with a constitutional charter mandating its sole purpose is to generate sustainable, long-term capital for future generations, preventing political appropriation for short-term spending.

  • B. Innovation Investment Mandate: Direct a minimum percentage of SWF capital into high-risk, high-reward national strategic sectors (e.g., fusion energy, advanced materials, sovereign AI development).

  • C. Transparent Governance: Ensure the SWF is managed by independent, globally experienced financial professionals, subject to full annual public audit and oversight by a non-partisan parliamentary committee.

• Body Autonomy: Neither the individual nor the state may regulate consensual personal choices (sexuality, religion, diet, marriage etc) unless national security or public safety is demonstrably threatened.

  • A. Medical Choice Sovereignty: Affirm the absolute right of every adult to make informed decisions about their own medical treatment, diet, and health choices, without state coercion or intervention, provided there is no direct public health threat.

  • B. Personal Relationship Freedom: Remove all state restrictions, regulations, and special legal categories related to marriage, civil partnership, and personal relationships, affirming that all consensual unions are equally recognized under law.

  • C. Lifestyle Deregulation: Abolish laws regulating personal consumption habits (e.g., prohibitions on specific foods, substances, or recreational activities) that do not demonstrably infringe on the rights or safety of others.
