Should be like in the U.S. Two terms is it ?

Or should I just shut up. Long live the fifth amendment !

Thats 2 terms only for the President he can come up with ideas but hey can get blocked by the Senate or Congress

Only get £65000 a year but they don't start til 2 o'clock in the afternoon so they can do there other work eg directorships of companies etc.

Also when you see Parliment is broadcast on TV sometimes you only see about 20 of them sitting there, where the hell is the other 600 odd.

MP's should be made to attend at least 8 hrs a day unless they are at their parlimentry seat, if not they don't get paid.

there was a fuel protest near to us today

at first i thought great thing.....

but they had a go slow on the bypass

wtf is that going to achieve??? what a waste of time fuel and effort

i say take it to the doorstep of gordon get down london and bring it to a fking standstill

of course i will be too busy but good luck chaps im with you all the way

ps if we were in france "go slow on the bypass" woulda been "roll cars over and burn them"
you can keep the food didier but i like your way of protesting
