There are 650 seats in total. Scotland/Wales/NI have too many seats when population per seat taken into account. Then there's devolution.

Re: General Election 2017

Tories will win by 200+ seats. Now they are no longer an EU party I am happy to vote for them. Commie Corbyn's Labour will shout a lot about the NHS which they messed up with debt, and be annihilated. Minor Fart will continue the decline of Limp Dims but take a few Remoaner votes from Liebore.

From Conference North upwards banning orders can be given even without conviction if magistrates, upon application by police, believe that such an order may prevent disorder. Section 14b Football Spectaors Act 1989 (as amended), or 14a with conviction.

Just praying now that it will be Jamm's version of Brexit and not Henley's! Me too. We won, which after 20 years of arguing for in one form or another is truly amazing, beating the FUD (Fear Uncertainty Doubt) of the Remain 'campaign'.

Re: EU Referendum

Do Remain voters know what they are voting for? Look at the history of the EU. Read the EU Treaties (or scan read them!). Read the Five Presidents report. That is what the Remain campaign never mention, it's all empty rhetoric. Brexit is not an event but a process. Leave the safe way and take it fro...

Re: EU Referendum

Re: EU Referendum

The Remain campaign must be ashamed of the EU they are desperate to stay in, they cynically have red, white and blue as their colours rather than the yellow and blue of the EU flag. The Remain campaign never refer to the EU Treaties. Read Articles 2-6 TFEU on the extent of EU powers. Or Article 34 T...

Re: EU Referendum

The EU referendum is a question of democracy. A choice between supranationalism (Remain) and intergovernmentalism (Leave); of centralised subservience to unelected institutions versus the chance to have a revitalised democracy. The former will render UK politics a meaningless charade, aided by an un...

Re: trains for away days

I use East Coast Mainline as they charge less. To get the best bargains you need to book 3 months in advance. Problem is though that these tickets are non-refundable so if the weather or cup competitions cause the game to be postponed you're stuck with the tickets. Also with East Coast you get rewa...
