Sorry for the above post – technical hitch.
Finally the people of the United Kingdom will actually have their say on the EU!
Well the people of Luton, North London will (at least it’s a start) as ITV's Tonight programme, hosted by Sir Trevor McDonald, is staging an EU referendum in Luton.
Three thousand local residents (although Luton has a total population of 202,500) will have the chance to vote 'Yes' or 'No' to the Lisbon Treaty, and whether to stay in or come out of the EU.

The Democracy Movement is leading the 'No' side and supporting the DM activists on the campaign trail so far have been the Labour MP for Luton North, Kelvin Hopkins, together with Thomas Rupp and Gayle Kinkead from the European Referendum Campaign.

'Pop svengali' music producer and Pop Idol judge Pete Waterman has also pledged his support for a 'No' vote, as has Bob Crow - RMT union leader and chair of Trade Unionists Against the EU Constitution.

The programme will be broadcast on ITV at 8pm, Monday 13 October

None that I know of, and with the Ind/Dem 'Open Top Double Decker Battle Bus' parked just 3 miles from Luton it should have been used, but then again Peter Reeve the Regional Organiser has refused to use it in the Region.
