The Bedouins Camel

The Bedouins Camel

When I was small I use to curl up comfortable and warm on my father knee, whilst he would tell me stories, my father was not a particularly moral man, but his stories always had a moral attached somewhere. I do not know this was intentional education on my father’s part, or if these stories were the only ones he remembered but educate they did, and although now I cannot remember those stories they are inside my subconscious somewhere, because occasionally, almost as the need for them appears so does the attached story with its guide toward the correct part to take.

The Bedouins Camel is one such story, and as many will know concerns the fate of a wandering Bedouin who as evening dew near decided to camp for the night. Although it is very hot in the desert in the day when the sun is out, at night it becomes very cold. In the middle of the night the Bedouin awoke to find that his camel had put its nose inside the tent, Oh master cried the camel it is so very cold out here, do you mind if just put my nose inside your nice warm tent, that kindness will be such a blessing and God will bless you for this little kindness on such a cold night, a little later the camel again spoke and said oh master it is so warm in the tent do you mind if I just put my ears in your nice warm tent, obviously little by little the camel got more and more of itself inside the tent until eventually the Bedouin found himself outside in the cold, whilst his camel was the sole occupant of the tent which he now considered as his own.

Now of course the morel of the story is if the camel had come right out and asked the Bedouin for his tent all of us know the short answer he would have received (well perhaps not all of us)

This children’s story is the best description of the Monnet Method I have heard, it clearly shows the method that has been and still is the main driver towards a European super state.

The moral of which is if Ted Heath in 1972 or Mr Wilson in 1975 had said to the British people there’s this dream of a nation to be forged out of all the countries in Europe, we want your authority to join with the other countries to form a central government which will make all our laws and run the whole of Europe. To do this we need to ask you to give up the rights you presently have to elect your government. Then when we have formed this country called Europe, we will set about breaking up Britain into regions, which will have their own parliament and each parliament will report directly to the state government, until eventually there will be no need to have a government of Britain because all of the decisions will be made in Brussels and implemented by the regions, all of us know what the answer would have been (well perhaps not all of us).

So what was decided instead was to break the policy up into bite size pieces, so that each piece would be easier to digest and as each piece was passed into EU law, that itself would then become be the impetus for the next piece, and so on. Of course several strands could be run concurrently to each other so we see in practice integration moving forward in different areas at the same time, then of course advances in one area can be used to require complimentary advances in a different area. In this way the whole European edifice is being constructed little by little brick by brick until eventually the dream of a united European continent will appear from the mists of confusion the Monnet system creates.

The Monnet approach also has the added benefit to those who are involved in the construction to hide their eventual aims, we see this to often to mention, but the arguments are always the same, those doing the building, project themselves as the future the forward thinkers the ones who are trying to do something to alleviate the problems and elevate mankind to a higher plane. Of course should anyone stand in their way, these people are cast as the laggards the little Englanders the one who refuse to get on board the ones who have a vested interest and would like to see us all return to the dark ages etc.

But what of us, those who can already see the final construction and do not like it, and have grown weary of all the lies and disinformation, what do we do. In short what we do is to fight every step towards building the structure on the ground of the builders, in the main we do not look at the big picture, we argue instead to stop a particular brick being cemented into place. Sometimes we win a battle and that brick is placed aside, but only for the time being, sooner or later the builders will need that brick and will return to the fray with renewed enthusiasm and new reasons and so on, all we have achieved at most is to delay part of the structure for a little while.

What we EUsceptics really need to do is to bring the whole building down, but how to achieve that becomes harder all the time, the builders have been very busy, building a network of supporters in high places, the political parties, the education system, local government, national government, the Foreign office and law departments the media, big business, charities, so much so that which ever way one turns we find people in powerful positions in every walk of life who are all determined to do one thing and that is to create a country called Europe.

Many of these people are wholly or partially supported by our own money given for their research projects or EU promotional projects, through our own government and the EU. These are the elites the ones who spend their lives undermining our own constitution and our norms, garnering accolades from others in the set for doing so. We hear and see professor so and so, who has done this or that report for some department or other, this supposedly independent report that just happens to show the only way forward is through Europe, this report is of course then used by Sir such and such or the right honourable something or other, to prove the point. It is like a dangerous new style old boys and girl’s network who will willingly leap the barricades to defend the breach if any of their schemes gain too much adverse attention from the media. Last week I wrote about Sir Stephen Wall, a leading Foreign Office mandarin. Who has been a special adviser to two British Prime Ministers yet now admits that all the time he has been working against the wishes of the British people. So if we are going to achieve anything other than a delay in the inevitable we need to do something about this establishment of Europhiles we really do need to do something about the BBC and other media outlets which do not consider the British way, important enough to report on let alone support.

There are, people working to undermine the foundations of the EU in Britain, these people deserve all our help and encouragement in their efforts to show that the British Constitution will not allow any government to give away its powers. There are those like Neil Herron from the North East who is on the front line of the present battle on devolution if they loose in the North East then game is up because the next fight will be that much harder to win and even if that fight is won the battle will be lost because we all know we cannot possibly have just one part of the country with regional government and the rest not, and they are not going to remove the elected parliament once it is in place.
