I hope everyone remembers when its election time how much money Conservatives,Liberals and Labour have cost us by refusing to do what the majority want ,get rid of terrorists within this country.I hope they also remember they have refused to give us a vote of staying within the EC as it is without any ammendments.None of the main parties have closed the door to "open immigration" and we are in the mess due to this.Straw ,May,there is no difference,both ineffectual.

Be careful of what you say online ladies and gents? We move into a new regime of ciber spying and slowly but surely one by one, a person will be arrested and charged with this and that under the malicious communication act? Anything written on online websites 'E' which "could" the enphis's on "could" cause distress or upset to the person it is directed at is a criminal offence? In other words as we rant about our politicians and build up a unity of similar disgruntled members of the community they will not allow this to happen. FREEDOM of speech?? It is nearing its end.....speak out of turn and you will be for the chop.

I am sure the Huffington Post will steadfastly stand by its correspondents.
I am also sure I will see a pig fly.
Freedom of speech is a valuable commodity.
To extend the menagerie, it is a dead duck.

Isn't there a plead called "justifiable homicide" which would seem appropriate?

If he threatened to kill anyone who wasnt an MP, Im pretty sure the same wouldn't be happening. MPs are the dirt beneath society's feet, but they put themselves on a pedestal with the power they have.

Blackburn, now that rings a bell. Isn't that the place that George Galloway thought he'd been elected to rather than Bradford.

Geography probably wasn't one of Galloways' strongest subjects at school...He might have thought Bradford was between Iran and Afghanistan..lol?
