    It's almost like we vote people in to make these decisions for us.

    No vote after Maastricht - a simple "Do you want to give up your sovereignty - yes or no" would have been nice.

    I blame the beggars in Wolverhampton.
    It's a dictatorship now?

    The questions are:

    1. How much sex have you got out of the marriage?
    2. What did you lose on the divorce?
    3. What do you pay per hour per hooker?
    4. What is best? Hookerage? or Marriage?

    It was John Major who signed the Maastricht Treaty and ironically the only opposition came from within his own party. A few months after signing he won a General Election.

    Kippers are always banging on about sovereignty and democracy and there it is in action.
