Well I am first and foremost a traditional Conservative of the Thatcherite Breed, I am an active member of the Conservative Future and very vocal on issues I feel strongly about. I am in favour of the pound and broadly euroskeptic.
I am completely against the current format of the welfare state, and fed up with reading about single parents, scraping nigh on 30k a year off the money we the taxpayers pay in and wanting more! I am in favour of Immigration to the UK as I see it is realistically needed, but I believe in limits, a points based system similar to australia would be a good idea. I believe in putting money back into our military which has suffered poorer and poorer funding under consecutive Labour governments. Criminals should serve full terms and not be let out when deemed "safe" by wishy washy liberal parole boards. People in society need to learn to respect eachother and behave as resonsible individuals if they wish to be treated such. Antisocial teenagers should be subject to corporal punishment. Severe criminals such as Child Molesters and Rapists should not be allowed out of prison, ever. I believe noone should be judged or persecuted on base of Colour, creed and sexuality but I believe people should not flaunt sexuality as it should be a deeply personal thing. I am broadly secularist in my attitude to government, religion should not involve itself in politics.
A lime is a citrus fruit, which is typically round, lime green in colour, 3–6 centimetres (1.2–2.4 in) in diameter, and contains acidic juice vesicles. There are several species of citrus trees whose fruits are called limes, including the Key lime, Persian lime, kaffir lime, finger lime, blood lime, and desert lime. Limes are a rich source of vitamin C, are sour, and are often used to accent the flavours of foods and beverages. They are grown year-round, originally in tropical South and Southeast Asia but now in much of the world. Plants with fruit called "limes" have diverse genetic origins; limes do not form a monophyletic group. This photograph shows two limes grown in Brazil, one whole and one halved, and was focus-stacked from 23 images.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus
... that political consultant Jim Rivaldo said that moving to San Francisco made him realize that "there were gay lawyers, gay businessmen—a lot of people like me"?
Elvis Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American singer and one of the most important figures of 20th-century popular culture. Often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll", Presley began his career in 1954 and became the leading figure of the newly popular sound of rock and roll in the late 1950s. Conscripted in 1958, he relaunched his recording career two years later with some of his most commercially successful work. In 1968, he returned to live performance in a television special that led to an extended Las Vegas residency and a string of tours. In 1973, he staged the first concert broadcast globally via satellite, seen by around 1.5 billion viewers. Prescription drug abuse severely affected his health, and he died suddenly in 1977. With wide success in many musical genres, Presley is one of the best-selling solo artists in the history of popular music. He won three Grammys, and received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award at the age of 36. (Full article...)
