Don't mention them. they were two days before my 18th birthday so I couldn't vote.
I didn't think people thought about who they voted for - just shut their eyes and stabbed with a pen. Seems infinitely more sensible and might actually work

One language, driving on the right hand side of the road,
But maybe we'd only need dodgy passport photos to go somewhere really exotic and exciting.
And if we used every countries public holidays, work days would be scarce.

So can the U.S. join the Euro? I would like the extra days off of work.

If I owned a country I would forbid entry to it to anyone who can't sing 'Eric the Half-A-Bee' (from Monty Python).

It was a few months after my 18th birthday, so I did get to vote. To be honest, you're probably right that people just did it randomly? But what were supposed to do? It's not like we had any choice at all.

There was: Hague's Tories - Centre Right.
Labour - Centre Right
Lib Dem - Centre Right
Euro Tories - Centre centre Right.
UKIP - Erm? Centre Left, but they're a little toooo strange...
Natural Law Party - Left, and ditto ditto ditto...
Hemp Coalition - erm, er... yes...
BNP - Right. Right. rightrightrightright...

Who were we supposed to vote for?

Maybe I'm glad I couldn't vote
it sounds like a harder decision than choosing which 3 history essays to write.
and that was hard.

What would've happened if no-one voted?
would they have let us out of the EU
