Peter Hain said so, and it's not as if he's the kind of bloke to B/S anyone..........cosmicnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861279106331108648.post-72131888901074539712011-11-08T11:32:27.996-08:002011-11-08T11:32:27.996-08:00Watched some of the fauxdebate on channel 81 this ...Watched some of the fauxdebate on channel 81 this afternoon.<br />I counted 23 MPs in attendence, the coverage didn't allow long enough on the whole house shots to get an accurate count.<br />Either the absent MPs can't be arsed or they know that the debate is meaningless and that Parliament is obsolete.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861279106331108648.post-47451289543233206712011-11-08T07:37:52.420-08:002011-11-08T07:37:52.420-08:00It is essential that all these measures are proper...It is essential that all these measures are properly debated, how can we possibly keep the illusion that Westminster is in control and our sovereignty intact if we don't at least pretend?<br /><br />Unless UKIP as the only consistent political anti EU voice can get a MSM voice of its own and the journalists to ask politicians the 'right' questions, like why debate matters we cannot affect? none of this will ever get properly debated.PeterCharlesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861279106331108648.post-50384986490815190102011-11-08T06:09:48.597-08:002011-11-08T06:09:48.597-08:00Ah, the joys of living in a "Parliamentary&qu...Ah, the joys of living in a "Parliamentary" democracy, one which, once elected on the "first past the post" system, is "sovereign" and therefore answerable to no one - except of course, to those to whom it has rendered itself subject to - and that doesn't mean the voter!<br /><br />As for the changes in voting brought about by the Lisbon Constitution - wasn't it that wonderful Mr Blair who told us that it was nothing to worry about? That it changed and contained nothing that affected Britain's "sovereignty?"
