Nick's One Click took to me what I eventually found to be the thank you page - Try My One-Click Vote if you get lost.Nick wrote:.

They all go to the same thank you page but I'm sure we can all find the voting page for ourselves.

The one I posted above should go to the start of survey page provided you haven't already filled it in. If you have filled it in then yes, it will go to the same page.Silkie wrote:They all go to the same thank you page but I'm sure we can all find the voting page for ourselves.

Yup, done that, naughty bit of sneakyness from a government that promised to reduce red tape. Yeah, by simply giving unbridled powers to unelected quangos! Nice one, "Call me dave!"

Me thinks harbour masters could have a very busy schedule if they want to breathalyse everyone they suspect of having had a drink on the Clyde.BlowingOldBoots wrote:It is not beyond the bounds of possibility that a Harbour Master of a large area (Firth of Clyde and Thames) could impose a regulation requiring registration of yachts and an annual fee to be paid for keeping a yacht within their jurisdiction.
I think that there is a very deliberate plan behind this act to raise revenues.
Jeez can you imagine giving the fine harbourmistress at Tarbert those sort of powers

Re: Marine Navigation Bill - Harbour Masters Power - Say No
I actually tried to read the bill and its accompanying explanations. As I read it, and I wouldn't guarantee I'm right, the draconian powers apply only to England and Wales. The soon to be free democratic republic of Alba will still need ministerial approval for the diktats of any megalomaniac harbour masters.
