! This post hasn't been updated in over a year. A lot can change in a year including my opinion and the amount of naughty words I use. There's a good chance that there's something in what's written below that someone will find objectionable. That's fine, if I tried to please everybody all of the time then I'd be a Lib Dem (remember them?) and I'm certainly not one of those. The point is, I'm not the kind of person to try and alter history in case I said something in the past that someone can use against me in the future but just remember that the person I was then isn't the person I am now nor the person I'll be in a year's time.
I’ve just been emailed this link by a UKIPper and told to read the last two paragraphs.
If you can’t be bothered to read it yourself, basically a footnote in the EU not-a-constitution says that we accept the European Union Charter and a footnote in that charter says that the death penalty is abolished “except in the case of war, riots, upheaval”.
The EU not-a-Constitution reintroduces the death penalty and not only in times of war, but for riots or upheaval. That gives governments a pretty free hand to use the death penalty – strikes, protests, vote of no confidence in the ruling party.

Why am I not surprised.
If you could find a link to the charter that has the footnotes in I’d be obliged if you could publish it.
Does the death penalty still not apply for Treason & Piracy?
I thought abolishing the death penalty was one of the pro-EU campaigners positives? Well I won’t let that argument slip past again. It even has an anti-death penalty day! Apparently the German parliament are aware (link).
I would also be interested to hear the legal definition of “upheaval” it sounds pretty general.
Holy crap.
Hi Dave H, I have links and quotes in my post on the subject.
It seems that our STAZI friends in EU-rine Land have thought of everything. So it should not be surprising of the unelected Kommie Kommizzars and their Marxist TW*T Merde Batard pals will use this if they want to suppress any investigations, questioning, suggestions of, insults to of any MEP, Commissioner, Politcburo Member, Tw*t, Moron, Merde Merchant, Batard who is in the pay of, or employed by said EU-SSR Land.
