This Convention established the European Court of Human Rights .

It is an entirely separate body from the European Union .

Good war time leader, but also capable of being a total buffoon.

I'm with my great grandfather on this one. After the cruel and stupid actions he exhibited towards the workers, in the Great Strike.

This issue isn't unconnected with our membership of the E.U.

Britain should be in charge ot it's own destiny. As it has successsfully in the past, century, after century.

We never voted as a people, to have our democratically elected government be overruled by some greater European super power.

Our government want this man out, as do the vast majority of the people of this country.

We don't want idiots on mainland Europe, telling us what to do, and proclaiming that this arse is staying here, and we'll pay for the privilege.
