EU Referendum:

“They need lessons in politics

Specifically, they need lessons in British Constitution. Specifically, they need lessons in British Constitution. No, I am not talking about our unfortunate schoolchildren, who have, for generations, had politicians and officials experimenting on them. We have reached a stage when if any of them manage to be educated it is a miracle.

The people who need lessons in constitutional democracy and the British Constitution are our politicians. Their inability to understand the importance of the proposed EU Constitution is rooted in their ignorance of the British one.

If our elected representatives feel they have full powers to make any laws they wish, ignoring in the process the British Constitution, we then no longer live in a democratic country, but an elected dictatorship.

This in part is the problem with our involvement with the EU under our British Constitution we could not be part of the EU as it is constructed, it would be illegal for any government to sign any treaty which has the effect of undermining our sovereign right to elect our government.

Yet they do this because they do not understand the Constitution which gives them their power. These are the very people who take an oath to defend the Constitution when they take office and may not take office unless they do take that oath.

Our government is intent on totally destroying the British Constitution which according to the Constitution is an illegal act but unless the law lords stand up and make this point, or the Queen stand by her oath given at her coronation, we have no defence against this constitutional vandalism.

I have already made some points about the British Constitution in earlier posts.

It is imperative for Britain to remain a free nation that we do now put a stop to these elected vandals who have the temerity to ignore our own Constitution and by so doing destroy our birthright.

It is ironic that in his post, Dr North suggests that we should study the American Constitution when that fine document was based on the British Constitution in the first place, It seems we have exported English Common Law all over the world but have forgotten it at home.
