With over 2 million square miles of water and a handful of warships, this piracy is going to be more like hide and seek and the pirates would always have a better chance of winning.
   
   Use the strategy that I have created to:
   1) Force the pirates off this illegal business
   2)Prevent them acces to the water
   3)Create economic productivity in Somalia
   
   Please let me know if those countries involved would be willing to sit in a few hours
   presentation of our strategy to put a stop into growing trend.
   
   Thank you.

Show more »"My questions refer to the possibility of the EU offering an "Advanced Status" to Morocco.
   
   Morocco continues to illegally occupy a large section of the Western Sahara. This is in violation of over 100 UN resolutions which acknowledge the Saharawi people's right to a self-determination referendum, and the International Court of Justice ruling that Morocco's claims to the territory are unfounded. The Moroccan Authorities take a heavy-handed approach to the Saharawis who campaign by peaceful means for self-determination. Hundreds are imprisoned without a fair trial, and face years enduring the most horrific forms of torture. These human rights abuses are well documented by NGOs such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. Firstly, therefore, I would like to know if - in your opinion - Morocco's track record on human rights warrants the award of an "Advanced Status" ?
   
   So far, 155 international organisations from 26 different countries have called on the EU not to grant Morocco "Advanced Status" unless the Western Sahara is excluded from the Agreement (see http://www.upes.org/body1_eng.asp?field=sosio_eng&id=1312 for a list of the organisations). Will Britain be actively encouraging the EU to comply with International Law in this case, (it failed to do so with respect to the 2006 EU - Morocco Fishing Agreements , which have allowed EU countries such as Spain to plunder the fisheries of occupied Western Sahara, without Saharawi consent)?"

After all it can help encourage development in the African member states by encouraging investment, a free trade area for the commonwealth could work very well, you only have to look at NAFTA to see that such things can work. I feel that the commonwealth should be one of the top priorities alongside the UN and EU which are both also in dire need of reform." Show less »
