I know there was a thread about this a while back, but i can't find it.

Anyway, the ECHR has given a final ruling:

The Court now gives the United Kingdom Government six months from 11 April 2011 ...to introduce legislative proposals to bring the disputed law/s in line with the Convention. The Government is further required to enact the relevant legislation within any time frame decided by the Committee of Ministers, the executive arm of the Council of Europe, which supervises the execution of the Court’s judgments.

So there you have it. We are told we have to introduce a law and we're given a time limit to do it.

Let's shut down Westminster and turn it into museum as a reminder of what it was like when we had our own supreme legislature.

Lets make prisoners earn their keep and their vote.

Yes, I can't see Westminster being much more than a county council to the EU's governing parliament in the new order of governance within this 'Union'.

That apparent fact is fundamentally wrong of course and is an indictment on the standard of those elected to serve and answer to the people of this nation.

What next "The Member for Manchester Strangeways"?
David Chater will be up for that one for sure.

I wonder how much it's cost the tax payers to arrive at this conclusion? Mot prisoners have no interest in politics & don't want to vote. They did what they did to get put where they are & in doing so relenquish said rights, their opinion counts for nothing while they're being punished. said rights will come back into force upon their release.

I was always led to believe you were sent to prison because you did wrong in the eyes of the law and society.

In doing so you LOST all your RIGHTS & PRIVILAGES of a free person until such time you completed your sentence and were deemed to have paid your debt to society.

At what point did this cease to exist?  Oh yeah, when the EU stuck it's nose in and started a dictatorship!

Let's face it we're in a right mess. We've got a non goverment who have no hope of clearing up the ruins of the last few, we import loads & export very little. Because of yet more cutbacks we cannot police our own streets but feel it's our duty to police the rest of the world while our NHS & education is on it's knees.

   It's a rather disgrace.

What we need is to clear out ALL the dead wood, ie get rid of all the current MP's, and start again.

We need to have people running the Country as the people of the Country want it running. Not faceless unaccountable morons who can't even speak our language or even understand OUR culture.
break off and ruin your own Country and leave us well alone!

Charity starts at home, not 10,000 miles away in a place that prides itself on mudering its on population with the latest hi tech hardware and then pleading poverty and wanting billions to build schools....

HELLO, what about a bloody schools, our kids are in Victorian buildings that a leaking & falling down

I love my Country, I've fought & served for it, but I can't stand the way it's being beaten to death by morons in power, here & Europe.... makes my blood boil.

Sorry for the rant....
