OT Propaganda leaflet.
If you return your leaflet to Downing Street it may cost the taxpayer money. Better to return it to:
Joanna George FREEPOST RSBB-XRZT-ZTXE The Conservative Party Foundation 30 Millbank London SW1P 4DP That'll learn 'em! |

But there are many Conservatives who vehemently want 'OUT' as well as the misguided ones who want to remain. Does David Cameron have a 'freepost' address as well - that might work Andrew |

It is great to live in a democracy. oops - missed out that word. Mind you, "elected" is a lie as there isn't a majority - well under 50% of the electorate voted for it. I can't remember the figures for the last election, but I reckon if 20% of the electorate votes fro and 10% against, that's only 10%, then take off the, say 50% that didn't vote, the guvmint is down to -40%. Complete rubbish of course, but another way of looking at it. I took on what the statistician at work said - something along the lines of 'give me one value and the result you want and I'll do the graph for you'. Therein lies... -- Peter.

Can't see that being viable with legislation alone, let alone the other stuff the EU mandates like no state subsidys. And you can argue you lot have had a trial membership of the EU and about to vote as a result of that. "harry" wrote in message ...

When you look at what the EU and Socialism has done, you can understand why. Its not a world I ever wanted to bring up kids in, not since Wilson -- it should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism (or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans, about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a 'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,' a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that you live neither in Joseph Stalins Communist era, nor in the Orwellian utopia of 1984. Vaclav Klaus |
