Neil O'Brien's ideas include big fines for playing music on transport and a crackdown on spitting.
His list of proposals include:
- Action to stop e-bikes and scooters being ridden on pavements
- An end to 'street scars', where gaps in street paving are replaced with tarmac
- A "galvanising" national goal to reduce the amount of litter
- Councils to sort dumping of fridges, mattresses and broken cars
- Action to stop phone boxes and street furniture being covered in graffiti

Whilst these are all problems that it would be great to solve, I feel the vast majority of the public want to see politicians proposing ways to deal with more significant issues.
To me, this sounds like a list of things they feel the older generation dislikes strongly. They want to retain that base as much as possible so they'll put out statements like this ones without having, I suspect, much desire to follow through if and when they do have some power.
But I'm happy to be proven wrong on that.
