The war on terrorism

Indeed they are. There is more inherited power in the commons than the lords.

I was talking to someone today who had just come back from America. We do not get a lot of news about politics there now the presidential election is over. Apparently President Bush's popularity is now at an all time low. The Americans were quite interested to know how much Blair had suffered from being Bush's poodle.

Though they were also interested to know how likely it was that the lib dems might win.

Don't need to worry about a private prosecution, there is an action underway to impeach Bliar, and it will not make any difference if he stops being prime minister.

Oilman they have been talking about this for over 6 months that I know of and they don't seem to be making much progress. Love him or hate him, I can't see a couple of dozen disgruntled MP's and personalities being enough to bring him down.

Surely he must be in the last ditch saloon and is becomming a liability to Labour anyway. Gordon also appears to be coming into the limelight a bit more than he used to as well.

Impeachment sends a message to the next official about what they're allowed to get away with, and is therefore VERY important. In the U.S. we've found a way of initiating impeachment from a U.S. citizen, but it's based on old British parliamentary law. Maybe you have the same ability. Might want to look into it:
