Fuel pump wiring straight from battery???

I was wondering if it's possible to wire the positive wire for a fuel pump straight from the battery? Wire connects to the "+" of battery then has 30A fuse (or whatever you suggest), then on/off switch (to manually activate it) and then the wire goes straight to the black and white wire on the fuel pump. Yes, I'll be using thicker wires, my question is do you think this would work? Would I need another fuse after the switch or a a bigger one and etc.

Thanks for all the comments.

In case you're wondering why I want to do this rather than just a regular fuel pump rewire thing, one less relay, and against theft.
