What laws in your country do you disagree with or would change?

I'm from the UK and I would

Remove the Bedroom Tax
Remove the 2 child limit on Child Benefit
Abolish the Investigative Powers Act
Remove Housing Benefit from the Benefit Cap
Ban politics from being taught in school (this includes LGBT lessons)
Abolish the law that if someone loses a civil court case where they sue an individual or company, that they have to pay the winning side's legal fees
Implement a 20:1 pay ratio
Bring back the Fair Rents Act in law again, which was a law that capped rent
Ban Zero Hour Contracts
Abolish the Friendly Wifi Scheme
Abolish parental controls on broadband and mobile internet where a user must opt-out as it's on by default
Abolish the sugar tax
Make segways legal
Remove the age limit of 18 on energy drinks
Stop treating Universal Credit for couples as one claim for two people, and instead make it one claim for one person each, and stop paying an income for two people into one bank account
Remove the part of the Coercive Control Law from the Serious Crime Act where telling someone what to do, go and wear is illegal, as the person can easily say no
Increase unemployment benefit Universal Credit by £40 a week making £309 increase to £479 a month
Hate speech laws should be abolished if you're posting onto your own personal blog, personal book, online video channel or social network page. Targeting people on the street or in public with verbal abuse based on protected characteristics should remain illegal as that's harassment.
End the ban on junk food adverts
Abolish the law that bans gender stereotypes in adverts
Abolish the rape by fraud law
Cold approaching and catcalling women should not be illegal as long as it's not aggressive
Abolish the law that means a union can only make its members perform an action (eg. strike) if 60% or 80% (I can't remember which) all agree on it
Abolish "affordable rent" for social housing (80% of market value) and bring it back to what it was previously, "social rent" (50-60% of market value)
Mandate that a percentage of all new housing built must be social housing with rents below market value
Ban foreigners from buying property unless they have lived in the country for 7 years
Free NHS parking for NHS staff
Reduce the NHS surcharge for immigrants
Remove all green taxes, such as the Low Emissions Zone
I wish that copyright expired after 20 years for intellectual property that is no longer broadcast, streamed, sold or licensed
Replace the First Past The Post voting system with Proportional Representation
