    .... and still is.

    As they say, a little knowledge is dangerous, and there's no doubt that AdolfLover & Brissie have very little knowledge.

    The UK (not just england, AdolfLover, take note) is part of the European continental shelf. Doesn't matter if the land is covered by water or not, the continental shelf is the continental shelf. End of. Islands don't come into it. I think you're confused with the notion of 'mainland' & 'islands', which is not the matter under discussion.

    Might be a second not a first.. Bit late to the party with that quip Eric. Rob made a similar assertion yesterday and was duly ridiculed. :emoticon-0105-wink:

    These two are pretty cluey.

    It's lengthy, but the first 10 minutes are very interesting regarding indicative votes by Parliament.

    But you were only a boy then, you'd never remember it. It ain't joined anymore, me bucko, and that makes it NOT part of the continent of Eur-****ing-ope.

    Ooops sorry Rob, I don't read all the posts. The natives get a bit restless if the colonials pay too much interest in the on-going pantomime.

    As admirable as it is naive Rob!

    Seriously, I think most of them have a moral dilemma over what they think is best for the country and what they think is democratically right... irrespective of any further conflicts regarding what is best for them personally!

    Well said. That is, after all, the essence of what our parliamentary democracy is all about. <doh>

    You’d have been happy in 1930’s Germany, the executive had a ‘fair bit’ more power than parliament there too, and it didn’t do them any harm did it?
