Mission: New Bridge at Wembley StadiumDo you love your rugby or despise the poms?Yes I know this is childish, but if we didn't get so much fun out of winding up the English we would stop doing it, wouldn't we?It's that time of the year again for Australians to play havoc with an online vote. This time around its being conducted by the London Development Agency who want the public to name the new bridge which will lead up to the new Wembley Stadium.Go onto this link and vote for the name of the new Wembley Pedestrian bridge to be "The John Eales Bridge"Pass this on to everyone!!Do your best!

I Love this! when the BBC did a poll to find the worlds top songs the voting link went around around enough Irish people to make the number one song The WolfTones "A Nation Once Again" null"The song was written in the 1840s as a call for Irish independence."

"The Irish diaspora has topped a world-wide poll to establish which representatives of a former British colony are best at hijacking BBC Internet surveys...........Canvassers for A Nation Once Again encouraged voters to register "800 years of oppression" as the reason they were nominating the song, written by Thomas Davis in the 1840s."
