Clarke to 'eliminate disrespect'

Charles Clarke has vowed to eliminate disrespect in society by the time of the next general election.

Speaking ahead of his speech in Brighton, Mr Clarke said it was impossible to force people to have respect for each other.

But he said there were steps politicians could take, such as demanding props from all his homies.

The "respect agenda" is a key priority for Tony Blair's key third term.

Mr Clarke told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that he hoped to see greater respect for his "fine-ass bitches, or some mutha-fuckin wannabe playa's going to get a beat down dawg. Y'know what I'm sayin?"
