A Brexiteer has set out 10 "New Year Brexit Resolutions" to help capitalise on freedoms outside the European Union.
Former Brexit minister David Jones said ahead of a general election expected next year, Rishi Sunak should "re-commit to the fulfilment of the British people's judgment".
He insisted the move would help the Tories create a "clear, principled dividing line" with Sir Keir Starmer's Labour Party.
Writing in the Mail on Sunday, the senior Conservative MP listed 10 ways to "deliver what the British people decisively asked for".

Mr Jones's list includes recognising that the UK Parliament is sovereign and no longer needs to "kowtow to Brussels".

He said the UK must use its sovereignty to get a grip on controlling Britain's borders, including potentially looking at leaving the European Convention on Human Rights.
Mr Jones called for more to be done to take advantage of the ability to have an independent foreign and trade policy.
He highlighted how Britain joined the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) Indo-Pacific trade bloc in the biggest post-Brexit trade deal to date.
But the Clwyd West MP urged for a push to get free trade agreements with countries such as India and the US over the line.
Mr Jones also demanded that 4,000 EU-era laws remaining on the UK statute book after Brexit be scrapped.
The plan for a bonfire of Brussels laws was watered down earlier this year to around 600.
In his fifth point, Mr Jones said the UK should push for "even closer" ties with fellow Commonwealth countries.
He also urged for Britain to overhaul its tax system including slashing corporation tax to make the country competitive.
In another point, he highlighted Britain's history of innovation and said it should strike a different approach to regulation to the EU's in order to "liberate that natural inventiveness".
Mr Jones said the UK must "go further" on animal welfare as he pointed to legislation to ban live exports - which would not have been possible as a member of the bloc - currently making its way through Parliament.
The ex-minister said "Brexit must mean Brexit in every part of the country" as he hit out at the Windsor Framework deal which leaves Northern Ireland still following some EU rules.

And in his final point, Mr Jones urged the Government to allow the return to imperial measures if the public wants it.
He said: "So, let's make 2024 the year of Brexit delivery. And in an election year, reap the rewards of the millions who voted for it."
It comes as some Brexiteers have been left disappointed by a perceived lack of action when it comes to taking advantage of Brexit freedoms.
