    I can only assume there will be a "No Fat Chicks" clause in the constitution.

    Pfft, it should be "lots of fat chicks". You haven't lived.

    Saw a TV program about a guy in England who tried to do this a while ago I’m sure we can pull it off.

    Danny Wallace. Legend. Him and a friend 'invaded' an island, and he declared himself the leader. It was going well until the police turned up.

    I'm with you. We would have to have our own smokable plants though.

    Would like to have smart people too.

    I love these stupid threads....

    1. Half the people that say yes prob dont vote in this country as it is.

    2. If you think they are doing a stupid job why dont you run for govt.


    ..... Comes the stupid answer. The govt are [EMAIL="a@@hol@s"]a@@hol@s[/EMAIL] and i would not run for govt. I would rather set up my own....:rolleyes:

    Talking to yourself is not a good my friend. Asking yourself questions and then answering them in a way you yourself disapprove of is silly.

    Anyway Ive given up on Ireland and I don't like paying tax so ill make my own country thank you. If you chose to work on the system from within more power too you. Ill go my way you go yours.;)

    You will have to fight larchielads for it. Someone needs to find a large paddling pool and 100l of lube. rules are bathing suites only and nothing to be worn above the wast. The sex of the combatants is irrelevant as the winner will be decided by a panel of citizens selected at random.

    I will be minister in charge of making up rules that make no sense.

    I will require our full yearly budget for expenses and meetings.

    I propose then to employ one fifth of the new population doing duplicate work for each other while only having to work 5 hours a day.

    I propose we set up a dail that is at least 4,000 miles away from the island and only the most clueless idiots with no experience are allowed to run it.

    I would also like to build a ring road around the island making sure that it goes nowhere.

    I would also like to employ the services of the flying spaghetti monster sect and put them in charge of educating our children.

    The whole idea of setting up a new country is to have something different to what we already have, which is why your suggestions don't meet the necessary requirements, with the exception of the re-location of the dail.

    I think that there should at least be ducks involved in this, on the grounds that hens aren't too hot on long-range bombing missions or aerial combat.

    Thats a very valid point.
    Maybe we should set up an investigative committee on the various merits of ducks, geese and even swans

    Throw in a few tribunals and we've got it made.

    Well, if it worked for Sealand...

    Has it ?

    Does Britain formally recognise its independence (I mean properly -not just that crap about court decisions in 1968)

    Does ANY country recognise its independence ?

    Does the threat of "invasion" should they start their own radio/TV stations issued by the UK in the 1980's still stand ?
