I signed the top one but I do not agree with the other two. We live in a free society, it's not the government's place to force practices on manufacturers. Instead antitrust laws should be used

i never said the where perfect, and indeed i never even said that they would work, but i felt kind of duty bound to pass them on....

I never wrote them but it would be nice to see gordon brown get off his fat lazy.........etc.

I agree with this. I work in a 4 man company, thanks to all the EU regs forcing us to extra work for smaller profit margins we have been strangled and strangled for years.

Wont sign anything that forces company's to do extra work for minimal profit. Sorry.
