Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?

You never know ... if it looks as if the EU is disintegrating (and it certainly looks that way) a referendum, without a fudged question, could be a good move for the government. Get the people's...

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?

Has it really got to the point where the EU could thwart the democratically expressed wishes of the British public ... Ireland, maybe, but the UK? Isn't it the sixth or seventh wealthiest country in...

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?

Something that has always intrigued me about politicians is the question of voting according to one's conscience. This seems quite acceptable, praiseworthy even, when it comes to things like gay...

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?

Looks like buddy spends too much time with his lawyer, and not enough time listening to the concerns of his constituents.
