Showing a little realism Tony Blair has said that it is up to France and the Netherlands to decide on whether they can ratify the EU Constitution. “The EU constitution depends on a change in the French and Dutch positions, so in a sense it is for them to come forward and say how [...]

Anatole Kaletsky in the Times suggests that Blair has the opportunity enjoyed by no other British leader, at least since the Second World War. The question is how he can play the strong hand that fate has dealt him.
Simple really “Mr Blair can start by explaining why the EU constitution has failed. The voters of [...]

Letters from the Telegraph on ID Cards

Rodney McGough, Harrogate, N Yorks
Sir - We are told that it is possible to track by satellite millions of cars and the distances [...]

Boris Johnson in the Telegraph questions the amazing indulgence we show - now that communism is meant to be dead - to commies, socialists and Lefty tyrants of all kinds.
Remind me: who was the greater mass murderer, Stalin or Hitler? Well, Stalin is thought to have been responsible for about 50 million deaths, and Hitler [...]

I have been busy this last week so haven’t posted much, I have been saving items I wanted to write about in my draft folder, one of which was John Major’s little missive in the Telegraph,
Thankfully Richard North has save me the trouble

Always passionate?
Sir - When Tony Blair delivered his speech in the European Parliament, he demonstrated why so many British people no longer believe a word he says. He told the MEPs: “I am a passionate pro-European. I always have been” (News, June 24).
Always? When he sought my vote in the 1982 Beaconsfield by-election, he said: [...]

From Denis Cooper, commenting on the article below
1. ” The response of the Home Office minister Fiona McTaggart - someone whose job I thought was to defend free speech - was deeply depressing. She refused to defend either the theatre or the playwright and insisted on the moral equivalence of the writer and her violent [...]

Please visit: http://www.no2id.net/ , swell our numbers by one more, and then circulate this on.
REMEMBER: Tony Blair swears blind that it’s a jolly good thing, so you can be pretty sure that it’s not.

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years.

One thing we in the online community can do is to work to ensure transparency and accountability is brought to this process. We need to find out who has been pressing [...]

From Denis Cooper
“Presidencies may come and go but the European Commission is eternal” - President Barroso to Tony Blair,
after Blair’s speech to the parliament, 23 June 2005.
“National sovereignty is a luxury of the past” – Graham Watson MEP, leader of the liberal group in the
European parliament, speaking after Tony Blair’s speech, 23 June 2005.

The EU Elites change the meaning of words or invent new words instead of using readily recognised words to explain what they mean then because they are using these new words they get away with making the most extreme statements.
In EUspeak democracy becomes populism “the political doctrine that supports the rights and powers of [...]

Not that I care one way or [...]

So when the Euphiles keep telling us that the member states are in charge do they mean that they are in charge only so long as they understand that it’s all heading in the direction of more Europe, and the direction of deeper integration.
EU development commissioner, Louis Michel, said “The British Prime Minister has the [...]

Mark Steyn in the Telegraph notes that Peter Mandelson is admitting the Common Market has been a failure. He points out that when Mandelson says “Europe is faced with a fundamental choice.
