Well that's quite a difference! One vehemently opposed to the EU, and one as enthusiastic as is possible to get!

Yes but it depends on what you think are the most important issues. Maybe, like most of the country, David doesn't give a shit about the EU.

If anyone is undecided, they could do worse than pick the three issues that are most important to them and rate the parties/candidates on those three issues alone. Then you will at least be voting for something that matters to you.

Given that UKIP's core principle - their entire existence in fact - is based on opposition of the EU, it inherently plays some part in someone considering on voting for them.

Not sure what country you're referring to there.

The preservation of front line public services to those that need them most provided by the people paid the least !

I knew you'd bite on that one!

I've been dying to say this for a while, but Badge actually looks a bit like Nick Clegg. Any chance of putting up a picture? (and don't just put one up of Clegg).

No.

P.S. I don't.

You bloody do! I guessed you wouldn't put up a picture though.

Don't. I'm more like Gordon Brown.

Well I've only met you twice, but I'm an artist and I notice resemblances - around the eyes.

Walker looks like John Noakes. he didn't seem that impressed with me suggesting that either.

Look at the eyes, not around the eyes. Okay, I'm more like Clegg than Dave or Gordy, I'll give you that.

I couldn't give a monkeys nuts about the EU. What good does it do us really? It has made the UK turn into a carbon copy of every other country almost. It's the reason why we are overun with Europeans and it overturns our laws whenever it wants.

On the other hand - if we got out of the EU we wouldn't be able to enter the Eurovision.

...but actually lots (most?) of the entrants aren't in the EU. Some are even in other continents.

80% of our exports are within the EU.

We don't really want to lose those do we?

Gordon keeps telling us that there are a million Brits working in Europe. So if we kick out the europeans then we get our million back. Hence in the same position anyway in terms of jobs.

I don't really know on the issue of Europe.

It would be nice to get a nice big chart.

What we get out of it on one side and what we put in on another. We can then decide if we want to stay.

Godot thin ice mate, thin ice.

As only a limited number of us have seen each other. I could say you look like Harriet Harman (and I know where to find you...)

I don't know whether to feel privileged to have seen a few of you or not now.
