« on: April 15, 2016, 02:38:44 PM »I think traffic wardens will vote IN as they show an affection for international tolerance .
Heard cases of dodgy parking tickets issued in recent days, for example a car rear hanging over badly marked yellow lines by 3ins in one case .
Yesterday I witnessed a car parked a considerable distance over the yellow lines in West St in front of the main entrance to the Municipal Buildings . Later on my return from shopping it was still retaining the same spot with no apparent parking ticket issued .
Can anyone tell me where I can purchase a set of these number plates with a white background and black lettering ?
You are not suggesting that there is one rule for us and another for EU migrants, concerning road traffic violations

So the Remain campaign will have the benefit of £16.3m, whereas the Leave campaign gets only £7m for its funding...that's the Etonian version of fair play :dan
Are you implying Dave is DODGY?

We'll all get one from the Vote Leave camp too. Allowing both parties fund to put forward their views and inform the known electorate sounds pretty fair to me
One is self funding, the other funded by us.

9.3 million pounds of OUR money to be spent by the government on a leaflet drop to convince us to stay in Europe.

Slightly off topic, but our thoughts go out to the people of Brussels today after another cowardly attack. Looks like they are striking at the heart of European government.

Things are getting messy 
IDS resigns, or was he pushed?
Beware if you are a Eurosceptic and do not toe the line

I was a postman at the time, and delivered all the bumf. Every time I handed one out I got the same reply. " I fought for this country I am not going to give it away " Not one person I met said they wanted to join.
Yet we joined with an overwhelming majority.
I remember we were told that wages would increase, and we would get more holidays to come in line with Europe. I am still waiting.
It only be the same this time, dont matter if 90% vote out it still be a majority to stay in, we dont have the transparancy in the uk to know any different
You are as bad as me Bostonshire with your conspiracy theory.
But you are right, how do we know?

Some debate this is, we are all in agreement. At this rate 100% support for exit.

« on: March 07, 2016, 10:29:19 AM »First point. Nobody voted to be in the EU, because there was no EU when the previous referendum was held. It was to a vote to be a member of an economic community, aka the Common Market, which was supposed to make the movement of goods easier with lower tariffs. I'm still waiting for significantly lower taxes that the government of the time promised if we voted in favour.
Subsequently, our leaders signed a treaty giving away our sovereignty without consulting the people. Unquestionably, this was an act of high treason and the perpetrators would at any other time in history, have been brought to trial and executed.
This is the first and probably the only opportunity for the population to reclaim the lawful rights of the British people. Failure to do this will mean that we will be inevitably drawn deeper into a superstate where we have little or no say in our destiny. All the arguments about compromise are irrelevant. No ifs, no buts to quote a certain culpable politician; we must get out of something we don't believe in. The evidence that we are not part of this pernicious European dream is clear. We have refused to join the Euro. We have refused to commit to the Shengen agreement regarding free movement over boundaries. We have just participated in a pointless exercise to pull back some of the commitments to which we had previously agreed. In other words, we don't believe in the superstate dream and we certainly don't want to immerse ourselves in the idea.
We want our country back and there is only one way to achieve it. The way out may be involved and complicated, depending on which politicians are allowed to stick their oar in, but June 23rd will be a historic day for the nation. If we stay in, it will be the last day for us as a nation.
If I had a way with words that is exactly what I would have said
