If that makes you feel better, over here Denmark isn't linked to that. In fact, it's not linked to anything.
You'll be hard pressed to find anyone who knows anything at all about denmark other than "that's somewhere around the north pole, right?"
EDIT: And Guido, I like how portugal is suddenly fascist in that video 
In reality, it's borderline communist.

So, British people, what do you think of your parliament at the moment?  |

Just voted for the first time ever in the European elections, good fun. I have been spammed with messages from the green party and the UKIP for the past month though.

MP's are hardly giving us reason to trust them.
The house of commons really winds me up. Ahh the cheering etc. It just seems crap.
Also expenses, just change the system. Even raising an MP's wage, and abolishing expenses all together seems more logical. |

The BNP are fucking fascist.
When I see their ideas I ask me why this party is authorised.
[edit] If you're talking to me I never said they aren't racists, I think that they are and I find disgusting that so many people like this kind of crap.

oh... "but they're not racists"
Yeah... tell it to everyone else...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What's so wrong with the EU anyways that people aren't supposed to like it. From what i've seen it has nothing but benifits. So we haven't joined the €, doesn't mean we won't.
I actually think we will, but not for at least another 10 years or more.
Also, i've noticed that there is a campaign group to make britains road signs into km by 2012. This won't happen by then. But it has to. We're being brought up thinking in meters and kilometers.
The only reason miles is ever used is for conversion factors. |

Well in theory we're brought up to think in metric terms rather than imperial. The amount of imperial still in use though means effectively we need to learn both. The main problem I guess being that USA are still using imperial. (Along with Liberia and Myanmar, but I doubt that has much influence) |

I'm pretty sure that at some point soon we'll be transfering over to Kilometers and meters.
g/kg are already used.
Pint is only used for Milk/Alcohol. |

It would be a pretty massive undertaking, changing every speedo and speed sign in the country.

I can't vote until May next year, so I'm hoping that too, but most of the public want one right now.
Things are such a mess though. I just really hope the BNP don't do well as a result of this in the European Elections, because people seem to be fed up of the corruption in the three "Westminster" parties (Labour, Conversative, Liberal Democrat). |

Many countries has done it, Sweden did it in the 70's I think.
