Why is it a number of Tories feel over turning the fox hunting ban must go straight to number one on the queen's speech?

Personally though, I think that it would be both strategically and tactically a poor choice to leave the EU if Britain wants to consider itself relevent in todays world. Britains GDP and military size is quite pitiful in comparison to the US, China, Japan, and military wise Russia, although our GDP is better than theirs. We cannot afford to keep a decent military force, nor can we a hundred percent rely on NATO if America should decide to follow an isolationist path or return to its Pacific focus. In short, it is down to Europe to defend Europe, and like it or not, we are a part of Europe. Alone, the nations of the EU are pretty unremarkable, GDPs low, military forces nothing to write home about, but together we have one of the largest GDPs and military forces in the world. That is a relevent matter. Only the dreams of Empire which has long past is keeping us from being a relevent member of the EU, and quite honestly we've got to stop living in the past, the British Empire is dead, we are not the superpower we were a hundred years ago, not even the superpower we were seventy years ago, we are a small island nation with an even smaller military, and whilst our economy is good, it's stronger as part of a large European co-operative entity. It would be foolish to think that Britain can go alone any more. |

Lets not forget that the US has made it pretty clear that it wants the UK in a strong, united Europe which the US can, ideally, leave to it's own affairs without having to intervene militarily to defend or stabilise. If the UK leaves the EU, I think it's pretty certain that the US will put us near the bottom of their list of useful strategic partners. The UK is of no use to them otherwise, if we're going to look at things in a purely geo-strategic way. In terms of world relations, what the British public wishes to do is pretty irrelevant. Mike.

I should imagine David Cameron is wringing his hands with glee.

Ian Duncan Smith has confirmed that killer nurse Victorino Chua, found guilty of killing two patients and poisoning at least twenty others, has successfully applied for a senior position at ATOS Healthcare

David Cameron has renewed his vow to boost NHS funding and create a "seven-day" health service.
Is that per annum?

Very early post election days but the signs are arguably beginning to look promising.

Looks like the Tories plan has backfired. The nurse at Stepping Hill got caught.

David Cameron was given the wrong oath today, he took the Hitler oath and said this one suites his evil vision better.
