		<description>What if every country begins to vote extremist as many people I know feel like doing ?  What does Europe become then ?

Now can you see why it&#039;s such a bad idea ?

Vote UKIP, Green, Libertas (not BNP) ANYTHING but Conservative, Labour or Lib Dem.

The three main parties have proven themselves to be a danger to Britain.</description>

		<description>Well Ann:

Britain is an Island next to a continent called europe.  All the countries of europe got together to form a trade community, but some people wanted to go further to make it all one big country for the very good reason that they thought it would stop there being another big war.  Some other countries including Britain didn&#039;t want to be part of one big country especially as the laws are made by an unelected body called the European commission.  Unfortunately because of some cunning treaty making by the integrators, it turns out that the non-integrators have much of their law made by something called the European Parliament (in fact largely implementing directives from the commission).  This parliament is the only democratically elected body in the european union, though it does not choose the executive.  Your chance is to vote in elections to that body next week.  Broadly your choice is:

1) Vote to integrate more (Lib Dem)
2) Vote to pull out altogether (UKIP)
3) Vote to do nothing &#039;cos we don&#039;t really understand (Labour)
4) Vote to try and pull back powers and lawmaking to local parliaments and stop the federalising agenda, but retain commitment to a European Union with harmonised economic regimens and no trade tariffs (Conservative)

I should add that you have to vote for a party not an individual and MEPs are then selected from a party list for each region.

Because it is a PR system it is very important to vote, because the more moderate and right-thinking people who vote, for whatever party they choose, the less chance we have of being represented by extreme left-wing fascists (ie the BNP)

Obviously its more complicated than that but hows that for starters?</description>
