Agreed, especially since the economic case for the Croxley Link is
AIUI partly built on closing Watford Met and releasing the land for
housing development.

Who are the Hillingdon English Democrats...POWER TO THE PEOPLEEEEEEEE!

Another variation on UKIP ? Apparently some bloke called Gary Bushell
is their candidate for the Mayoralty of Greater London :-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Democrats
which seems to mention desires on the territory of a neighbouring
country, a policy which largely fell out of favour in the rest of
Europe about 1938.

Oh no, it's all the rage in trendsetting New Europe. None of the former
Yugoslavian countries would be seen dead without a claim on someone else's
territory!

Seriously, though, assuming you're talking about Monmouthshire, that's not
an entirely fair description of the situation.

The Lonely Planet book "Western Balkans" says they struggled to find a
name for the volume, having rejected "Greater [insert name of country]
and the Occupied Territories"

Is this serious. I must mention this to my brother in Canada. I do
hope he, and his spouse, have remained on the Monmouthshire Electoral
Role.

It's as serious as the idea that the English Democrats party might get
in to power so they'd have the power to actually call such a
referendum...

I presume your brother is on the Electoral Roll as opposed to being a
returning officer or having some other role in the electoral system in
Monmouthshire.
