Jamie's Opinions[edit]
Well I am first and foremost a traditional Conservative of the Thatcherite Breed, I am an active member of the Conservative Future and very vocal on issues I feel strongly about. I am in favour of the pound and broadly euroskeptic. I am completely against the current format of the welfare state, and fed up with reading about single parents, scraping nigh on 30k a year off the money we the taxpayers pay in and wanting more! I am in favour of Immigration to the UK as I see it is realistically needed, but I believe in limits, a points based system similar to australia would be a good idea. I believe in putting money back into our military which has suffered poorer and poorer funding under consecutive Labour governments. Criminals should serve full terms and not be let out when deemed "safe" by wishy washy liberal parole boards. People in society need to learn to respect eachother and behave as resonsible individuals if they wish to be treated such. Antisocial teenagers should be subject to corporal punishment. Severe criminals such as Child Molesters and Rapists should not be allowed out of prison, ever. I believe noone should be judged or persecuted on base of Colour, creed and sexuality but I believe people should not flaunt sexuality as it should be a deeply personal thing. I am broadly secularist in my attitude to government, religion should not involve itself in politics.

Featured Article of the Day[edit]
Leucippus was a Greek philosopher of the 5th century BCE. He is credited with founding atomism, with his student Democritus. Leucippus divided the world into two entities: atoms, indivisible particles that make up all things, and the void, the nothingness between the atoms. Leucippus's ideas were influential in ancient and Renaissance philosophy. They were a precursor to modern atomic theory, but the two are only superficially similar. Leucippus's atoms come in infinitely many forms, all in constant motion, creating a deterministic world created by the collisions of atoms. The soul is viewed as an arrangement of spherical atoms, cycled through the body by respiration and creating thought and sensory input. Little is known of his life, with a few scholars doubting that he existed, attributing his ideas purely to Democritus. Two works are attributed to Leucippus, The Great World System and On Mind, but all of his writing has been lost except for one sentence. (Full article...)
