Should UK Adopt The Euro?
A cross-section survey of 1000 people in the UK , made up of Afghans,
Pakistanis, Indians, Poles, Iraqis, Somalis, Africans, Albanians,
Bosnians, Turks, Cypriots, Brummies, Glaswegians and Liverpudlians
were asked if they thought Britain should change its currency to Euro.
99% said no, they were happy with the Giro.

Agree with that. I think maybe if all these nationalities come to this country they should contribute to it, not claim off the 'state'. In short; close the borders, and get everyone vetted -if undesirable then deport them.
And bring back the death penalty.

Tam - hint - it's Scotlands oil
1. Secede from the EUnion
2. Secede from the Union
3. Take away their trousers
4. Replace the 'stone'
5. Check all immigrants to Scotland - the bin Laden family are buying
Newcastle United - they may sneak in at Dumfries on the pretence
of viewing the camera obscura.....

Story in a National Newspaper
Will we still be the Country of choice and still be Gt Britain if we continue to make the changes forced on us by the people from other countries that came to live in Britain because it is the Country of Choice??????
Think about it . .
All I have to say is, when will they do something about MY RIGHTS? I celebrate Christmas, but because it isn't celebrated by everyone, we can no longer say Merry Christmas. Now it has to be Season's Greetings. It's not Christmas holiday, it's Winter Break. Isn't it amazing how this winter break ALWAYS occurs over the Christmas holiday? We've gone so far the other way, bent over backwards to not offend anyone, that I am now being offended. But it seems that no one has a problem with that.
This says it all!
This is an editorial written by an
British citizen, published in a
National newspaper He did quite a job; didn't he? Read on, please!
IMMIGRANTS, NOT BRITS MUST ADAPT.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some
individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on the 7th of the 7th
we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Brits. However, the disgust about the attacks had barely settled when the 'politically correct! ' crowd began complaining about the possibility
that our patriotism was offending others.
I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to Britain, Our population is almost entirely made up of descendants of immigrants. (The Danes, Romans ect.) However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand. This idea of the Brits being a multicultural community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Britain's we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle. This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.
We speak ENGLISH, not Indian, Urdu, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language Therefore, if you wish to become part
of our society, learn the language!
'Land of Hope & Glory' is our motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan We adopted this motto because Christian men and women,
on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented.
It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God
offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as
your new home, because God is part of our culture.
If the 'Union Jack' flag offends you, or you don't like our QUEEN, then you
should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.
We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care how you did things where you came from.
This is OUR COUNTRY, our land, and our lifestyle. Our Laws give every citizen the right to express his opinion and we will allow you every opportunity to do so!
But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about our flag,
our lifestyle our government, or our way of life, I highly encourage you
take advantage of one other great BRITISH freedom,
THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.
It is Time for Gt. Britain to Speak up If you agree -- pass this along;
if you don't agree -- delete it!

AMEN

It can be any problem(s), NHS, obesity, Military, Iraq, yob culture, binge drinking, crime, drugs, prisons, ageing population, it can be anything, just say what the problem is in your view and give your solution, just interested to see and have an interesting debate.
PS, don't turn it into a personal arguement.
Bring the Romans back.
