ORIGINAL: LadyEllen Hi NG Yes - I realise we maybe cant get everyone to take part at this time in our democratic processes. This is why we need to reform our democratic processes urgently as part of a new settlement. But, this is a wipe the slate clean and start again kinda thing. Only complete and utter fools would not participate, surely? And if they dont participate then they have no business whatsoever in wanting to affect things later or disobey the decisions reached. If you read what I wrote by the way, I did not say that we should ask for rules, but put rules to the test of approval or disapproval. A simple tick the box exercise, yes or no, a) b) c) sort of affair. You say the English speak English - and here you are tying yourself into the argument about who is English that you appear to wish to avoid. The fact is, regardless of ethnicity, there is not just English people in England, and there are plenty of places where English is hardly if ever used. The point is that to avoid future disagreements etc over the official language, we need to have English approved as the official language in the new settlement, or another language if that be the choice. And the point about honour killings - its to prove a point. I would fully expect such a proposal to be rejected, but one never knows - and whats important is that we have an approval or disapproval in the new settlement so that the situation is clear for all. As for my tit job, I feel it were better to enlarge my own than to make one of you, so I'll leave it at that. E Regarding the tits, the Mods have just knocked at my door, so we'll have to let this tit-for-tat cycle of tit nonsense lie. Right, let's see..... 1) You want some new rules. 2) You want the people to decide in a democratic fashion. This is already in place, i.e. the ballot box, and the overwhelming consensus is that we adopt a live and let live attitude.
