I am standing as Youth MP

[Strike]

You have to get voted on to it by Youth Groups, schools, or colleges, mind you I was the only one at Crawley College that wanted to do it. Then again any Under 18 year old can get into it.

Thanks for your advice and that funny story Bracknell, I promise not to turn into the David Belloti of WSCC ever. I hate the guy for what he done with the Goldstone.

 

[timseagull]

Also try and stop Under 18s getting conned.

How do under 18's get conned?

Thought it was the other way round.

(In gruff voice) Pint please

Any way best of luck...

 

[The Large One]

Believe me, over 18s get just as easily conned.

 

[zefarelly]

under18's never pay for train fares anyway . .they always bunk them !!!

I'm English . . .very English . . .but I'm also very European,

and strike your hideously naive to think we're not part of Europe, I'm no historian, but I think you'll find that we share quite a lot in common with many of them and in many ways, over hundreds of years If you dont believe that then maybe your a bit 'American' in which case, hand back your passport (if you have one) and f**k off over there

an Independant Britain/England would be crippled in no time, we'd be totally shafted financially and then we'd starve because we've built shitty little wimpy houses and 'retail parks' on our farms and land, we have little left of once thriving farming and manufactuiring industries . . . . we are not self sufficient and we'd never be a haven Monaco style so quite how you think it would work I dont know.

you could always quit you political career and become a political correspondent for the Daily Mail though

Here here!

We should rule ourselves and not let any foreigners rule us, why did our ancestors fight for us to keep our freedom, that is why we are a great nation. Don't sell it to Brussels, or Washington.

Oh dear. I honestly don't know whether to laugh or cry when I see statements like that. Do you really mean it? Do you genuinely believe that being in the UK is "letting foreigners rule us"?

And do you honestly believe that pulling out of the EU wouldn't completely ruin our economy?

He'll be a politician. He'll raise his own salary, and leave the issue there...

What a load of crap !!!!!

Here's why we should withdraw and insist of a Free Trade Zone ( posted many months ago ) -

You really shouldn't get me started but here goes some reasons :-

- the British public, back in the early 70's, voted for membership of a Common Market. The idea was to do away with trade barriers thus allowing free and fair trade between members. Since then the Common Market has evolved into the EU which is able to create laws that override member country laws. This has never been approved by the British electorate. It has since been admitted by Edward Heath that the original overall aim was to create a superstate of Europe. This could not be put to the voters at the time as they would have certainly rejected joining.

- the "membership fees" ( protection money ? ) the UK pays far exceeds any benefit we get back. For example, if 5 years of memberships were spent on the NHS instead every city and major town in the UK ( 100k+ people ) could have a new, fully equiped, fully staffed hospital !!!! Or if you prefer income could be reduced to 14p in the £.

- membership of the EU has made criminals of honest, hard working people. The weights and measures act was forced upon the UK - since then a number of traders have been prosecuted for selling in measures that a majority of us actually prefer - pounds and ounces.

- that lastest attempt to reform the consituation makes the EU even less democratic that it is now. Smaller countries will have to share votes on important issues. This will enable the large powerful nations such as France and Germany to impose their will even more than now. With tax harmonisation you will eventually have the EU setting your tax rates. Fine if you want the high socialist taxes that most EU countries have but it hard gives us the democratic option of choosing the style of taxing government we want !

I could go on but I think that's enough for now.

I refer you to my earlier post :

"The main reason we havent had a major war in western Europe for 50+ years is because of the European Union, a trend incidentally which goes against the previous 1000 years.

I dont have much in common with brummies, northerners or scots but get along with them . In the same way because were in the same boat economically as Germany, France, and Spain were not going to wage war on each other. You dont fight your trading partners, because you end up harming yourself.

Keep the EU, it stops us from destroying ourselves and our neighbours"

.....So would you now like to make the case for having a good old european war every 20 years or so, where a few hundred million get killed, just like in the good old days...??

Good luck to you, strike 95.

Thanks everyone for their support.

Europhiles only answer all three questions or else u r chickens

How comes the countries in the Euro-Zone have got far higher unemployment levels than we have got?

How comes we are putting £30 million a day just to stay in EU and we only get tinsy bits back?

What makes you think these EU countries are better than us or have more things in common with us than any other countries in the world?

Come on guys I doubt you are going to answer all three.

 

[Strike]

Do you genuinely believe that being in the UK is "letting foreigners rule us"?

What are you trying to say here. That living in the UK means being ruled by foriegners.

 

[H block]

I think we should bring back proper ``Youth detension centres`` and throw all under 21 year olds into them.What good are they, lets be honest ? If they are not all getting pissed and vomiting up after 3 pints of weak lager then they are at college or university ............ hiding away cos they are putting off the inevitable of finding a job.They give their mum ten quid a week for board and lodgings and pretend they`ve ``pulled`` every weekend when what the girl really said was ``Go away you sad spotty kid I`m interested in proper men who work for a living and don`t get a hard on just by looking thru the Sun newspaper.``
