No wonder the MP's can take such a long summer break as there is nothing for them to do at Westminster . Brussels determines about 50% of the rules that are shoved on us , many of those beurocrats unelected . Sounds a bit like our quangoes , overpaid and unnecessary . My last comment is that Eire will vote yes to the Lisbon treaty and then things can only get worse . If there is somebodys God up there , please do not put Anthony Blair or Neil Kinnock in as President of the EU . It is a great pity that the people in charge do not do some real work for a change .

There are clear reasons why people download illegally, because it is free, easy, and relatively untraceable (if you know what you are doing, no matter what the government says).
