TNF, one quibble. Wouldn't recall for the legislative branch be very hard to gel with PR voting, which ideally promotes minority POV's. e.g. If you have a despised and disadvantaged group that consists of about 10% of the electorate, what prevents the 90% in the favoured group 'evicting' the target group from the legislature through recall?

Anyway, at first glance I would:

1) abolish the HoL and replace with something useful, like a public swimming pool. Bicarmarelism is for chumps.

2) abolish the monarchy (or maybe keep the title and pageantry, but ditch the heridatary aspect and replace it with an elected monarch). Abolish all the stupidity surrounding it as well, like the Privy Council etc.

3) convert HoC to PR-STV.

4) replace the current ABSURD local government structure with anything else (regions and city states > boroughs > parishes). Set (metaphorical or literal) fire to the City of London.

5) disestablish CofE (what's the point?)

6) introduce civilian oversight over Civil Service.

7) introduce some sort of initiative process, at all levels of government.
