22:0071243today the top brass in brussels accused france of being similar to the nazis in their treatment of roma visitors.
in short they have been, to use the vernacular "lobbing out the gippos", much to the delight of the indigenous population.
mr sarkozy is up in arms and has made his feelings clear and seems to have the support of dave who stated that anyone entering illegally and/or behaving badly should be outed.
having seen actions locally by this grouping i am inclined to agree, what do other members think?

22:2071246My answer would be send them to Brussels if they are so keen on them.

22:2371249I think I'll dip out on this one Howie my Cevlar vest is in the dry cleaners.
No doubt it will be a particular parties fault and polotics will get dragged into it again.

22:4371268i must admit that i have always been interested in politics from the stand point of current affairs.
party politics with the points scoring and yah boo stuff makes me cringe.

22:5671273Good luck to the Froggies I say, unless of course they try and shove them onto us!
As we`ve commented before, whatever faults the French may have, at least they have the guts to do what THEY think is right for THEIR country. After all, they`re only sending them back from where they came, it`s not as though they`re being rounded up and shot!
I won`t go into detail as to just exactly what I personally think of the "Roma", but I do sometimes wonder if they ever give a second thought themselves as to WHY most people don`t particularly care for them?
Mind you, as this of course is a violation of their human rights, no doubt the French will incur a massive fine from Brussels of which, as usual, will be completely ignored.

23:0071274call me mr cynical john, but i have to say this.
your application to join the lib dems has been put on hold for the time being.
purely a procedural matter of course.

23:2771279That`s really bad news Howard.
I was hoping to join and change them from within!
( perhaps Vic will have more luck with his application!
