Re: B448 - Rename the country Bill 2012Sounds like a plan, but I'd hand it (and Devon, maybe Gloucestershire) to Wales, give them complete independence. Give everywhere north of Yorkshire (need to keep them for cricket purposes) to Scotland and cut them loose.(Original post by Matthew_Lowson)

Make Birmingham independent as well - would really cut down on the amount of **** areas in England and save a fair bit of investment we put out in improving the country.
Economic problem solved

Re: B448 - Rename the country Bill 2012sorry then, didn't get chance to read it. Don't see the point though(Original post by internetguru)
Yes it is on the government notepad. -
Re: B448 - Rename the country Bill 2012The MRLP would never do such a thing! Take away the Great from Britain- never, even if we have lost an empire, at football, have bad weather etc etc. We've still got beer, Wensleydale Cheese and are number one in the world at test cricket.(Original post by davidmarsh01)
Lol, no. When I saw the title I thought it was going to be from barnetlad. -

Re: B448 - Rename the country Bill 2012As Shadow Transport Secretary, I agree with this from Morgsie. You are meant to be focusing on Transport Bills/Motions and as I've already put one forward to the house, I think this is advisable.(Original post by Morgsie)
This is not thought through, money spent on re-branding if this passes
The Transport Secretary should be concentrating on Transport, where is the Transport Bills?????
It's fine to drift off now and then but you're not focusing on your main role in the House.
And it's a no from me to this bill. -
Re: B448 - Rename the country Bill 2012Can we make Scunthorpe a city state as well, or make it a protectorate of Scotland, and perhaps cleethorpes too?(Original post by Alofleicester)

Must protest at the last bit, England and Wales are number 1 at cricket, the Scots can't qualify for the world cup.(Original post by barnetlad)

Re: B448 - Rename the country Bill 2012
You probably gathered it's a no from me. As for concentrating on transport, I've not seen any support on the proposal as part of my election campaign for loudspeakers playing recordings of trains at intervals along disused railway lines. You could pilot it on the disused railway path west of Mill Hill East.

Re: B448 - Rename the country Bill 2012thats harder to say that British Empire, and it doesn't sound as good...(Original post by internetguru)

Re: B448 - Rename the country Bill 2012The house is too communist to pass any of my transport bills.(Original post by RoryS)

Cut all non road related transport spending that is my only aim as transport secretary.
