That is because you do not socialise, or come into contact with the likes of Richard Branson, John Major, Tony(spit) Blair(a bigger liar than Tom Pepper).....or the Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley bankers.....be grateful for this.....because if you DID move in those circles, you would need to count your fingers after you shook hands.

I would have been there at 7 am.....except I couldn't get into the bathroom.....himself took longer over his ablutions this morning.....but I was there for 7.30...... Before I had a drink or a bite to eat.
I just showered, dressed and went OUT and put my cross in that box!

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!

I ain't voting because it's been 9 months of bull...nowt will change either way. Cameron has 4 years left and nothing is going to change... Peeing into the wind is all I can say,and our local MP sought that , I just hope he goes next election because he's a liar on the Westminster gravy train...shame on you GJ

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!

Certainly nothing would change if no one voted, Odders.
As you hope your current MP is replaced next time, will it be as a result of others' efforts? Go and vote leave if only to cancel out the one vote your MP has.

I will not vote because it's pointless, I have better things to do than queuing up for pure nonsense
