Make general election manifesto pledges legally binding.
There have been too many times when politicians have given manifesto promises only to drop or reverse them when in power. This is adding to the overall disenfranchisement people feel towards the political system. If we want a representative democracy then it should at least start with votes being represented by legally binding promises upon which politicians are elected.
This would, undoubtedly, be in the public interest which the Attorney General should oversee as obligated by tenure of position as guardian of the public interest.
