            It's how it works now, and I don't like it. Websites' "Have Your Say" I don't mind, but on broadcast media it grates on me: I want professional broadcasters making my programmes, not the squeakiest wheels in the general public.

                    Looks like i will be off to europe next year as the uk market for for my sector looks a little "paranoid" at the moment.
                    Not the best timing as i have just got a mortgage sorted but you gotta work
                    "I'm more of a warrior than you'll ever be. I believe in the class war. I believe in the battle of the sexes. I believe in my tribe. I believe in the righteous, inteligent clued-up section of society against the brain-dead moronic masses as well as the mediocre, soulless bourgeoisie. I believe in punk rock. In northern soul. In acid house. In mod. In rock and roll. I also believe in pre commercial righteous, rap and hip hop. Thats my manifesto"

                      I'm not trying to change your opinion or lesson your pride, believe me. I was mearly replying to your original post where you said people who complain make you sick to your stomach and how people who move abroad to live should not be allowed to return.

                      I'm mearly explaining that each makes a decision based on their own circumstances. You are proud to be British, so am I, but I also believe that my family will have a better standard of life in another country and my child will have more opportunities if we move. To say that I should not be allowed to return to this country if, as a British passport holder, I decide to, is what really got me a little offside.
