So Who Rules Britain?

So Who Rules Britain?
The EU Commision has confirmed that Britian is no longer a sovereign country, and that our Constitution has already been destroyed by our membership of the EU. The British people no longer have the power to elect a government they want to run the country. If this or any government can sign international treaties that cannot be removed by a following government we have lost any notion of democracy.

We did have a self protecting constitution in this country, much of it has been ignored by the people we elect to protect it, and they have over the years pretended that it was their parliamentary rules which have replaced that it. One of those rules was that one parliament cannot under any circumstances bind a following parliament because to do so would be to remove democratic choice from the people. We can now see the results of this destruction, when a foreign power can dictate to a political party that they will not be allowed to introduce a policy on which they have been elected.

Within hours of the Tory announcement that they would limit immigration to Britain if elected the European Commission said that Mr Howard was too late and they would block a Tory government. The qualifications directive establishes a binding EU definition of who is a refugee. It has been adopted by Britain and other EU governments and comes into full force in September next year, regardless of who wins the election expected in May.
If a future British government were to enact laws that contravened EU regulations, the commission would begin “infringement proceedings”. Those would be followed, if resistance continued, by legal action in the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg.
