2000 years ago Cornelius Tacitus remarked that the more numerous the laws, the more corrupt the government. New Labour have given us an extra 700 pieces of legislation. Speaks for itself really.

Well I'm not gonna argue with 'Cornelius Tacitus' Jacques!
Is there anywhere on the web I can browse these new pieces of legislation?
Also, how the hell did I manage to spell 'democratic', as 'democtract'?! !laugh!
I'm sure a few keys are sticking on the board........

I see what your saying, but after Blair's Labour took power, it was all good, there was a honeymoon period where all was well. Now they've started fucking things up just as bad as the Conservative's did previously. So there is a argument to limit the time one has in office, also if they have a shorter term, there shouldn't be too much to rectify for the new cabinet.
I am so apathetic to it all, I didn't even bother voting at the last General election. The only thing that dragged me back to the booth was to vote against a BNP candidate running in my local area.

Nasty......I've been able to vote for 12 years. I've never voted because I've never had faith in anyone who were standing.
You're right that Labour started off well and seem to be going downhill real fast, but I think the troubles started after 9/11. I think most goverments would have 'hmmmm'd' & 'ahhhh'd' about siding with the USA before going to war, regardless of what they say in the media.
We're going through some shitty times with terrorism etc, and pulling out now will just make things worse, we're kinda committed. Having a new government come in, in the middle of all this might not be the best move, maybe it will, I dunno, but I've no faith in Presscott or Brown taking Tony's seat, or faith in any of the opposition.
It's crap....

Well, to be honest I think that is the rational that Bush is going to use in order to change the constitution and remain in the President's Office.
In regards to the shitty time with terrorism, I think the situation has escalated by the actions of Bush, aided by Blair and their phony ulterior motive wars.
I have a lot of respect for Brown, he's not got a great deal of personality, but I think he would be a strong leader and not just a "yes" man.

You'll have to check with HMSO for legislation and Statutory Instruments.
As for your spelling - not your fault. There exists a BGAFD Anti-spellchecker. Their is plenty of evidance for it's existance.

Hi Strictly,
These horrific images could have come from either side. When Hezbollah fire rockets into Israel or bombers detonate their bombs in public places for example.
Hezbolllah have annouced that they will destroy Israel and Iran and Syria supply them with weapons. If you believe that the state of Israel has a right to exist then it has the right to stop terrorist attacks on Israel and to destroy Hezbollah. As a terrorist group Hezbollah hides its terrorists and weapons among the people who then become targets.
