Which is what any new PM does, given a large majority. Look at Blair post-97, or Thatcher post-79.
It's what people expect. Give a PM a mandate to change things and .... they change things. Wouldn't be much point in a new PM or new government if they didn't.
But it depends on what you mean by "harder to stop him". Bear in mind, no Parluament can bind successor Parliaments, so if he does things the next parluament doesn't like, they can change them. New laws created? Amend or repeal them.
That, by the way, is part of the "sovereignty" argument over the EU. Parliament can repeal laws, but it's a different process to get out of international treaties, depending on the provisions of that treaty. Getting out of them can only be done either by using whatever exit clauses like article 50) exit, or by unilaterally breaking the treaty. We could, for instance, simply have repealed the legislation that made us part of the EU. That is within Parliament's authority (if you can get it through). But it would really be a monumentally damaging thing to do, because it would establish the precedent fir the UK being willing to break treaties. What message would that sent others about them relying on other treaties with us, or to those considering treaties.
But you ask about him changing laws that change things going forward? You have seen Corbyn's manifesto and agenda, I presume? That is a list of changing laws that seriously worried me, going forward. Sufficiently so to have already made arrangements to put things out of his reach, and preparations to leave the country if he got elected.
Does BoJo worry me? Yeah. But about 5% of how Corbyn/McDonnell worried me so, all told, and given that FPTP gave us a binary choice, no, I'm content as a worm in dirt about Boris.
A lesson learned from PeterB about dignity in adversity, so Peter, In Memorium, "Onwards and Upwards".
The real one...
If Wisdom is the coordination of "knowledge and experience" and its deliberate use to improve well being then how come "Ignorance is bliss"

How am I making any of that up? It happened. All of it. Feel free to Google it.
Most of those working in London and generating all that are not actually Londoners themselves, but commuters who live (and vote) outside of London.
This is Reading Area we're talking about, not Mumbai or Bradford. And no, Slough is the preferred location for call centres due to the superior comms infrastructure.
Actually it was a complaint from graduates who were peeved that they'd wasted all that time getting degrees only to be turned down for jobs, to which they felt they were entitled on the basis of having a degree, because they didn't have any practical experience.

I think that PC-LAD's quote, that Ttaskmaster uses as his sig is spot on
Tasky is right

You don't need superior comms infrastructure for call centres. Mumbai had functioned fine without it.
Could be a host of reasons from discrimination, choosing the boys from the old school network, etc.
Based on what? It's not as if you have a huge understanding on London and its politics.
I can see right through Tasky.
Still Zak, you haven't revealed which area you live and this probably as a huge influence on your political direction.

Which is why I really wish Labour had won. Then you'd be singing a different tune... well, whining and crying it, more likely...
People who have experienced and suffered under Labour did not vote for Labour, and you think it's nothing to do with their suffering??!! Exactly what is your degree in, again?
But anyway - Hard evidence. Go on, then - Prove to me how being a Londoner and/or a graduate in any way gives you insight (not even greater, just any insight) into why people did not vote Labour.
Bearing in mind many people outside of London are graduates themselves, especially those who are professors of various things so clearly know more than even graduates, yet still voted Conservative....
Every single one of our nice smart graduates (some of whom are Londoners) voted Conservative. They recognised that Labour in power would destroy our industry and seriously damage our nation.
No, but when given the choice between the 'reasonable' Reading network and 'wonderful brand new with latest technology' Slough one... which one are you gonna choose?
People put HQs and function facilities in Reading, along with CoOs because of the transport connectivity. Call Centres go to Slough.
Could be, theoretically, but since the greater part of the interview and selection process was a series of practical tests, which anyone relying solely on degree education will fail, my original assertion still stands... because they didn't care about theoretical education beyond the understanding it gave you - They needed someone who understood the job and could actually do the job.
Think of it as being a surgeon. You might know Grey's Anatomy inside and out... but if your hands aren't steady enough to make the cut, you don't get the job.
Based on the fact that you are talking absolute [CENSORED]!!!
That's because it's not me you're looking at. If you can even see me in the first place, it's already too late....
Not as much as you might think.
A lot of people still voted for who they thought was the best candidate for their area, not for which party they wanted in No 10.
I went against my own political direction to do the same thing.

I sincerely hope one day you realise that there is life outside the M25. In some ways it's better, in other ways it's worse but to say it's opinion is invalid because it didn't vote the same way you did shows a mind-blowing lack of self awareness.
