At last someone else has twigged that all these crackpot ideas pouring out of the government are nothing more than a puerile attempt to distract us from the real issues.
Illegal wars costing us more and more each year. £3.3 billion this year alone. Imagine what could have been done with that.
Refusing to have a referendum on the EU constitution/treaty.
Plus what you posted.
