Renounce your British Citizenship?


Britain ignores its citizens who live abroad. James Preston, a businessman in Spain angrily declares he will renounce his British citizenship. Yet he feels sick at feeling forced to do so. Why does he do it? He is denied representation at Westminster (the vote!) because he has lived outside of Britain for more than 15 years. He has fought before the High Court his demand to be represented as a Citizen in the British seat of power – the Parliament at Westminster. His case and his appeal have been rejected. James Preston resents having the door slammed in his face. Britain denies him the basic democratic right of representation. He writes “We have concluded, therefore, that the contract between the State and my wife and I – the citizens – has been broken. We moved to Spain, an EU country, to represent British interests and find work, and not continue to claim unemployment benefit.” James Preston in his despair, intends to renounce his British citizenship and take out Spanish citizenship. Britain, in this, acts as a dictator State which regards the citizen abroad as ‘subjects’ and not as free people with democratic rights. The Government of Britain will not listen to the citizens abroad but still expects their obedience to the laws of Britain. These are strong words but are they not true? James Preston, is undoubtedly proud of his British (English) Ancestry which he can trace back for over 400 years. He left Britain in 1995. He was then unemployed but found work with a British company in Madrid, and has worked for British companies ever since. He stills considers his soul is British, but in Spain you cannot hold dual citizenship. Because Britain will not grant him representation in Parliament he therefore feels that he has no alternative but to turn his back on Britain. But still the clammy mechanical claw of British bureaucracy might well hold claim on his estate at his death. British Tax Law could still claim to his dying day that he is ‘domiciled in Britain’, because it says he will retain his British domicile of birth! You may think this outrageous and you are right to think so. It is difficult to cut yourself loose from the British State if you are born British. The fact that his children are educated in Britain, and extraordinarily, the very fact that he has taken a case before the High Court in London to claim the right to vote displays in the eyes of the Revenue his ‘attachment’ to Britain. It is incredible but true that for these reasons the estate he leaves could well be subject to taxation by the British State, even though he would die a Spanish citizen. Mr. Preston also tells me that his children do not have full British Citizenship but are considered as 'Spanish of British descent' because they were born in Spain. If they had been born in the UK they would be fully British. If they then marry British spouses and have children born outside of Britain, his grandchildren would not be British citizens at all. But if they were born in the UK they would be British. It is a crazy stupid mixed up world. It is the last straw that, after having been insultingly refused the right to Representation, Britain could still claim a pound (£) of ‘flesh’. It beggars belief that Britain, claiming to lead the world in Democracy so treats its own citizens who dare to live abroad. It cannot desire, can it, that every British Citizen living abroad should renounce their citizenship? Should not Britain be proud of us who live abroad? To our neighbours we are the image of Britain. Why are we ignored by our own country? We want to be ambassadors for Britain, but Britain does not want us – except perhaps our money.

"Estark 92". Situated on the N340 Moterway coastal rd between benalmadena and Fuengirola. This is the creme de la creme of action on the costa.Girls change every 15 days and there are always lots to chose from. beers are reasonable at 6 Euros and a girl will cost 60 euros for what ever you like (make sure you discuss what they´ll do for you b4 you go upstairs). All girls are of fair quality or better up to sex goddess status. They vary in nationality coming mostly from central/sout america and eastern europe. They are all willing to please and often have uniforms/costumes in there rooms if desired along with a range of toys.sex is not hurried and you are garunteed not to be disapointed. I love this place. most girls speak english and spanish and often other languages too.Another reasonably good club is "Scandalo" situated on the Guadalorce industrial estate near malaga. A good thing about this club that you dont get in Estarks is that they have live gogo dancers/strippers in the main room. prices are the same as estark though the girls dont change as often and are not quite upto the same standard but still very sexy.

Club le Cocdor, which is just outside Torremolinas. It is a beautiful Mediterranean Estate and the bedrooms come with a whirlpool. It is simply fabulous. When entering the guy at the reception charges 13 Euro for Entrance and gives you a card for a free drink. I had a class of red wine and looked around at the chicas who are all sitting around the main area. This is quite a classy place. The girls are from all over the world, inclulding Romania, Italy, Colombia, Venezuela, Cameroon, Espana (the two chicks from Spain were in their 30's and didn´t appeal to me),

Background

Clubs

Crescendo is a small club in Puerto Banus. Dances are 30 euros, of which the club takes 10 euros; the house fee is 30 euros per night, although this is waived if it is not busy.
It is a strictly no touching club. Girls are expected to take it in turns on stage with nylon stockings, dancing with dresses for one song and in underwear for one song.
Crescendo Nude Club is in Casa Q - L 13 Puerto Banus, Costa Del Sol. It is open Monday to Saturday from 5 pm – 1 am .Estark 92 is located in Carvajal-Fuengirola, near club La Cubana , and it has plenty of Eastern European and Latina prostitutes with different shapes, colors, and BBBJ attitude, many of whom you would be proud to take anywhere with you. At Estark 92, premium sluts have their own private room. 70 euros for half an hour is still a reasonable price, but if the girl likes you, you sometimes get longer time. Sometimes, you can hold three separate girls each evening in this brothel. A bottle of beer costs 5 euros and the lady drinks are always a little more. Beware and discuss what you expect before going to the room.
Estark 92 club schedule is Tues-Weds 9 pm - 2 am, Thurs-Fri 7 pm – 2 am , Sat 2 pm - 6 am .
S'candalo is a luxurious strip club that doesn't charge entrance fee. A taxi may charge you 5-6 euros to get you there, at Pol. Guadalhorce (frente a ITV), from the city center. Get really excited with a 20 euro lap dance. Most of the girls at S'candalo have come from Russia , Croatia , and Eastern Europe , with few Spaniards, blacks and Latinas in the scene.
It's just 6 euro for a soft drink – which could be soda / beer - and for the lady is a little extra, so if you don't want to expend cash or to charge your credit card more than you've planned, then talk as fast as you with the candidates and make your way to the room.
All the sizes and volumes, but all of them have what it takes to charge a minimum of 150 euros an hour upstairs.
Milady Palace has skinny blonde Barbie type sluts. Sex travelers bet Friday and Saturday as the best days to get laid in this Spaniard brothel because during the weekends you can choose between 50-60 whores. The team is comprised of at least a dozen of Russians, 5 to 8 Polish, and 6 to 8 hot Latina sluts.
Getting laid in here is quite expensive. Prices are 300 euros for one hour. Although they also do half hours, many girls rarely go for this which is 180 euros.
This brothel, known for years, is located near Puerto Banus opposite the Coral Beach Hotel on the golden mile in Marbella . Soft drinks cost 4 euros for each beer or pop/soda you ask, rising to 16 euros and beyond if you buy a lady drink.
Expo 93 is another strip club in Marbella - it is in the industrial area and any taxi can take you there. Expo 93 opens at 8:00 pm , but since the dancers live there, they'll take an hour (from 9 – 10 pm ) to eat.
Although the whores change periodically, the majority of the girls come from South America with a few Africans. These girls are damn hot, no question about it. But the only question we have is why it's barely difficult to catch an Eastern European at Expo 93.
Anyhow, the arrangement between the whores and the owner is that the girls pay €50 per night to operate in the club and everything they take they keep. Soft drinks, including beer, are €7 each with a drink for a girl costing you a penal €30 per go! The girls have to pay €100 if they stay out all night with you so most business is done on the premises.
Paying to have sex is €50 (plus tip) per time for 1/2 an hour. There is also a charge of €3 by the house for a cover sheet for the bed. Every room has a bidet so normal hygiene can be followed both before and after.
Pipo's : It's a nude club with female dancing performances, including a full bar, located at N-340, km.698 Autopista Alicante to Murcia Exit 80 Alicante , Spain , Spain Near: Cox. Everyone is welcomed. Pipo's bar does not offer any party packages at this time or any V.I.P packages.
Los Lagos is sort of a hotel located between La Linea and Algeciaras. If you take a cab in the Gibraltar border or Algeciaras, it would cost you no more than 10 to 20 euros. From Algeciaras, it takes no more than 10 minutes to get there or from La Linea or Gibraltar it is no more than 15 minutes. It's cheap and secure. When you enter in Los Lagos brothel, head first to the bar – drinks surrounds 4 Euros – and then pick your chick or more than one among 20 to 30 girls wearing skimpy clothes. Prices are from 75 euros for 1/2 an hour to 140 for an hour which includes blowjob and/or foot job. That place also provides the room which is Ok.
