That's hilarious .

I don't understand what it means to have "ultimate authority remaining with parliament" ? Does this extend to powers that are already transferred ? Does this mean that parliament ultimately decides on the scope of these competences ? Seems a very confusing sentence to me... Was this explained in any of the debates ?

bit of controversy surrounding him right now .. he called the fans of another team (Feyenoord) "cunt-cockroaches" (literal translation of what he said ).

Called up to national team. I'd say that might have an effect on his price tag.

If I remember that Saha goal correctly didn't it come of a header won by Fellaini against Alex rather than a Pienaar pass?

I agree with The Beard on the best performances. Worst away team performance was at sporting, imo. Especially because I think we could have gone on to at least the semi finals.

I've started watching "Lost". I guess the title is supposed to reflect the feeling you get when watching the show . Decent suspense though.

It's give or take the system we have, isn't it? Doesn't seem to work that well over here . As for UKIP, it's the same argument as for BNP .. it's a vote based on a complete lack of knowledge. However I would agree that the policy of the Lib Dems in regards to Europe, for example the introduction of the Euro, is probably too progressive for the UK. From the point of view of democratic legitimacy, the UK is not yet ready.

Congrats Bill.

Because of the previous posts I just read up on the BNP and I can't believe how any sane person could have ever voted for them .. Protectionist, in favor of corporal punishment, homophobic ..., they're stuck in the world as it was in the 1950s .. Time to evolve... I haven't read their whole "manifesto" but if you think they have valid points on some issues, I'm guessing all you need to do is read up on that issue so you aren't susceptible to populist drivel and fear-mongering.

Yes I did . Re-sign.

Couple I would have gone another direction but I guess it's generally OK. Do you think giving the award to Pienaar is a way of convincing him to resign much like the player of the month january award was given to Donovan?

Vive Monaco .. BTW: another Mbokani highlight clip : http://www.sporza.be/cm/sporza/videozone/MG_sportnieuws/MG_voetbal/1.773304 .... EDIT : banned for 5 games because of that tackle.

Gelukkige .. Spijtig dat Genk gisteren geen beter cadeau kon geven .

in some legal systems (like in Belgium) if you're engaged and then one partner unilaterally decides to end it without a reason (or with a bad one), it's considered to be a non-contractual liability. South Africa must have some sort of similar rule. EDIT : quick search showed that South Africa is known for awarding moral damages in case of a broken engagement. (reference : F.Mulligan, "Damages for breach", South African Law Journal, 1958, 175.).

He's says he doesn't know but on the other hand he's looknig to play in a better competition and he has family in the UK.

He wants to leave. http://translate.google.com/translate?js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=1&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsporza.be%2Fcm%2Fsporza%2Fvoetbal%2FJupiler_Pro_League%2F100501_de_bruyne_studio_1&sl=nl&tl=en

Has Everton ever been known to do a European tour? I'd love to see a game on the continent.

Mods? It was a genuine question .. I really do wonder where that thread has gone.

Good initiative ... In the UK it's only the Sun but could you imagine a major news organization like Fox News having a real influence on the opinion of the people like in the US? It's amazing what this one man has done in his life, he could be the antichrist.

I've been impressed with what Platini has done so far. He's been great for European football.

Problem is, if you ask a mod to close a thread on this forum, they do an overly thorough job. Will this thread also disappear to the depths of hell just like the one on Best Young Player and Most Improved Player did? .

I do that aswell but the problem is that even then if you don't type fast enough, you once again get the nopermissionnopermission .. so I basicly end up typing something in Notepad and then copying it to the shoutbox before the nopermission appears.
