I have previously expressed my extreme euroscepticism on this forum but there is one thing that mystifies me: Politicians are not, generally, fools and yet government after government have continued with the EU process knowing full well where it has all been headed. There has been endless comment about the excessive costs of membership, the unfairness of the CAP the destruction of our fishing industry and our loss of sovereignty; and yet there has never once been any attempt by any government to offer a rationale for our continued involvement. I find it hard to believe that so many politicians are motivated by the larger political stage upon which to strut and so I ask my self time and time again - WHY?

As I mentioned in a prior posting, I have asked this question of Michael Howard and once again the question has been sidestepped.

I’m sure that no one reading this post has the answer and I don’t know what I expect to achieve by my words - I just feel the need to pose the question: WHY?

Neil Herron of the North East No campaign.

has promised an explosive exposé in the Telegraph on Sunday about Tony Blair’s Electoral

Commission decision, to award the designation as official no group to the recently formed Tory backed NESCO. We wait with baited breath!

An open letter from the organisers of the real No Campaign in the North East

Quote

To All,

It has been a very busy week with a press and media maelstrom following the shock announcement by the Electoral Commission to award Designation as the ‘official’ No Campaign in the NE to the recently formed Conservative construct NESNO, dubbed by the press and media YESNO.

The ‘Peoples’ No Campaign will continue the fight free from party politics, but as it will be seen, the decision by the Electoral Commission will see this Conservative group lurch from crisis to crisis because of their lack of understanding of the issue and their naievity in hand to hand combat as campaigners. London Tory boys do not know the North East and this is becoming increasingly evident.

We warned of this months ago that this would happen, but they still went ahead and formed a rival group to challenge the hugely successful ‘Peoples’ Campaign’ who had had the opposition on the ropes since exposing the unelected Assembly for misusing public money nearly two years ago.

The spotlight is shining on the YESNO Campaign and who they really are. Unfortunately for them they will not be yesterday’s fish and chip wrappers because the story goes too deep and is intertwined with the bizarre decision by the Electoral Commission to award them designation.

The Labour Party and the Yes Campaign are preparing to carve them up on a daily basis. They have walked straight into the trap.

The soap opera that will unfold over the coming weeks will see the Conservative Party suffering death by a thousand cuts and their incompetence exposed with embarrassing consequences for all concerned.

The implications for those in the Electoral Commission who have been party to this unbelievable decision will unfold in time. We are making preparations to make the North East No Campaign’s application available to the House of Lords Library. The consequences of the decision by the
Electoral Commission has implications for the big battle ahead…the referendum on the European Constitution.

At the minute, as self-preservation kicks in, we are receiving more leaks than a judge in a Working Men’s Club annual horticultural contest…and speaking of judges, there is a remarkable ironic twist in this saga of deceit, back-stabbing and betrayal that will make everyone’s jaws drop. The implications are far reaching and we could see scenes reminiscent of the Pinochet case.

As events unfold over the coming weeks you will be staggered.

The Peoples’ North East No Campaign will achieve a ‘No’ vote on November 4th. The die will be cast next week after the revelations in tomorrows Sunday Telegraph.
