Ken on May 11th, 2008Failure of Royal Mail
Thank heavens for Jeff Randall. In all the coverage of last week’s devastating Government report on the collapse of our postal services, nowhere was there any mention of the key part played in the disaster by the EU - until Mr Randall broke media silence in Friday’s Daily Telegraph.Yet the report itself made no secret [...]
Ken on May 1st, 2008Better late than never
Richard North is for ever going on about the MSM not being up to the job of reporting, and if today’s article in the Telegraph is anything to go by, with good cause, to my knowledge Dr North has been arguing for a redistribution of military funding for at least the last two years. But [...]

And in 1973, the UK joined the European Economic Community
This week Gordon Brown launched a nation wide public debate on the British Constitution.
I say launched perhaps I should say re-launched because he was referring to the Governance of Briton a green paper published in July last year.

Ken on Mar 11th, 2008The EU is a Distant Foreign Policy Question (not)
Europe’s power is easy to miss. Like an ‘invisible hand’, it operates through the shell of traditional political structures. The British House of Commons, British
law courts, and British civil servants are still here, but they have all become agents of the European Union implementing European law. This is no accident.
By creating common standards that are implemented through national institutions, Europe can take over countries without necessarily becoming a
target for hostility… Europe’s invisibility allows it to spread its influence without provocation.
Ken on Mar 30th, 2007Reading the Treaties
The EU is not a defence alliance in fact this is quite clear as Article 17 of the treaty states the EU "shall not prejudice the specific character of the security and defence policy" of a member state.

Leaving on one side the pleasures of what he refers to as "advantageous separate whipping" (which sounds kinda fun - may we be allowed some in the Lords?) could he explain why he [...]
Ken on Apr 3rd, 2006The EU ID Cards and an Uninformed? Minister
Mr. John Redwood (Wokingham) (Con): Will the Home Secretary confirm that people are right in thinking that this is all part of an EU requirement to prepare for a common system across Europe, and that that is why he is in such a hurry to get rid of our liberties in this respect?
Mr. [...]
Ken on Feb 28th, 2006The Invisible Elephant
Several letters to the Times argue that George Osborne should have acknowledged in a recent article that Irelands current prosperity is partly due to its membership of the euro and the amount of funding it receives from the EU.
