For anyone who's interested, who didn't watch this gem of historical fact about our entry into the European nightmare, here's the link to this excellent programme which was shown on BBC2 a few nights ago:

For any waverers out there who don't know which way to vote in the referendum, just take a look at it with a completely unbiased mind and see how it's completely untenable to remain in this basket of snakes - if you have any common sense whatsoever.

Do I have to vote? I hate voting. It's always held in the school opposite my house and it takes at least 10 vital minutes out of my Saturday. I've got so much to do on a Saturday. Bet on horses,tinker on old Jags,watch the Super Rugby,get in a Sherman Tank while the missus is at the shops,POUND as much BEER as possible,make pointless observations on the Forum. I haven't got time to vote. I always run into neighbours when I vote. I HATE neighbours. They disapprove of practically everything on that list not to mention some I omitted such as public urination and the dog pooing on their lawns. Maybe I can postal vote?
Yes Kami, you can postal vote - that's what I've been doing for years.
My polling station is up a great big bonk (as my dad would have said for a bank) that only mountain climbers would attempt.
It's so easy to switch to a postal vote and take all the pain out of the process when there's booze to be drunk!

that's the way Tommy, mind you I wouldn't trust them in some parts of the country
Well BB, it's something people who are reluctant voters because of the inconvenience it can cause should be aware of - and I think there are many people who don't realise that they can switch to a postal vote for everything (national, local, police) if they want to.
If more people did claim their postal vote (which is by free post) we just might start getting decent numbers voting again - which is what a good democracy needs.

The only problem with the postal vote is that Electoral Fraud can be achieved much more easily than by ballot-box voting in person. And is becoming more commonplace.

Naturally I realise that anyone writing any letter pretending to be the famous hill-walker Tommy Toes is taking their life in their hands.
I'm fairly certain that every henchman employed by the great man would scour the country until the miscreant was found, and then fed ALIVE to the pigs in Tommy's special non EU-compliant abattoir.
Yours faithfully,
Tommy Toes
