Default new government legislation

seems that blair is trying to introduce a new bill which means he can create new laws without any approval from parliament as long as they don't carry a prison sentence of more than 2 years..

we are well on the way to a totalitarian state

I did'nt either but I have no illusions about the other side.They are all power hungry despots and would behave in just the same way given the chance.

First new law he intends to enact under this new legislation is a mandatory 18month prison sentence for all persons who have voted Tory at least once in the past 20 years.

That way he ensures the guy next door will get voted in with a landslide majority at the next election, and his first task in the new job will be to kick his mate Tony into the lords . Not.

Thirded. I don't normally let my politics get in the way of friendship, but I don't think I'll be able to continue to be mates with anyone who votes this lot of chimps in again, next time (which they probably will be, because Joe public seems to be retarded).

What these numpties seem to have forgotten is that they came into power simply because Joe Public voted the other lot out, the Tories having become complacent, arrogant, and in several instances corrupt (Archer, Hamilton, et al).

Mr.Blair and his regime has simply repeated this "power corrupts etc" process
http://labour-watch.com/sleaze.htm
and they will suffer the same judgement by the electorate (if we all wake up!).

Erosion of civil liberties is their latest dogma, and there's only so far you can push people.

A leading labour politician was speaking the other day on radio4, and came out with the classic line "We are here to run the country". Sorry mate, you are not there to "run" the country, we do that.

Just hope they are shifted by election rather than revolution, 'cos it's heading that way. Well that's me locked up then

Yeah, they all seem to conveniently forget, once voted in, that they are there to represent the views of US, their constituents, and if it were not for us they wouldn't even have a job in the first place.



I'm not politically motivated in any way, nor do I have any allegiance to any political party. They're all as bad as each other. Having said that, I do hope Labour don't get in again.

I object to being told what I can and can't do, and if what I want doesn't fit in with what some spotty little oik who has no life thinks then tough s**t. I gave up smoking cigarettes 10 weeks ago but still enjoy a cigar when I go out for a beer. Now I won't even be able to do that. And it ****es me off.
