Typical feelgood policies to make the lawmakers, or their constituency, feel good about themselves,  not to actually do good. In this case it is mostly harmless unless done to such an extent it would actually make a difference, and there are much more efficient ways to bend the voting system to your ends.

Sorry but you're being short sighted jax. It's not the efficaciousness of the result that matters but the precedent on opening a practice of retiring rights to people.

Not all slopes are slippery and this stupidity has all sorts of precedents including as mentioned the US. Of course Wikipedia has an article about it: Felony disenfranchisement

In many places (including here) people that are in prison can't vote exactly because being in prison means being prevented of exercising basic civil rights such as going wherever you want to go - you can't, you are arrested.

What irritates me is to consider fiscal irregularities so serious act as killing or robbing someone. If this continues like that, someday we'll be "disenfranchised" for smoking or crossing the street outside the walking passage.
A matter of attitude.

It means that all the neighbors in Bromley have the joy of living next to a gigantic mountain of trash.

Maybe we finally realize that we are in war, even if pushed by others to get in.
I wonder where's the European army to response... maybe the usual bunch of pacifists can answer.

Vive la France.
A matter of attitude.

From your lips to God's ear, Belfrager
My country must await the presidential election before we -again- realize that when war is declared on you, no rhetorical answer suffices.

The Long War continues… Too many of us thought to sleep through it.

Consequences of post modernist culture and it's indefinition of things.

Such atrocities couldn't serve better those against Europe receiving refugees.
Europe's identity its being destroyed, walls are being mounted and, soon, we'll be doing what we never imagined to be possible. Hospitality and humanitarian principles are under full attack.
That's how entire nations and populations are driven into terror.

If Europe fails to hold and maintain our civilizational principles, there will be nothing in the world to substitute it.
A matter of attitude.

I'm sorry, Belfrager: I find nothing to argue with in your post…

Meanwhile elsewhere in Europe the National Front soars to new heights in the France Regional Elections.

What does it say?
Generally speaking - the poorer the country, the more low priced for foreign tourists it is.
I'm missing capitals like Tirana, Pristina and Podgorica from the chart. They must be among the cheapest...

I also don't like the colours. And I don't believe that meals in Kiev are more expensive than in Poland.

Worst than that. What it says is that we must all live by the same patterns, in this case, the "Daily Backpacker Index".

Funny that everyday Ukraninans runs away from the nº1 daily backpacker pseudo index of cheapest cities while no one has ever heard about a massive touristic invasion at Kiev.

Anyway, I don't care, tourism for the masses should be forbidden. It's nothing but one of the tentacles of the new order, reinvented upon the Nazi's invention of a touristic network of hotels for the low classes.

Nice try southern boy. I am not an ex-colonist so not keen on interfering with the internal affairs of others!
