EU Immigration Good For Britain?
September 13, 2006 By Leave a Comment
In the main on this blog I have steered clear of immigration subjects, it is far too easy to be branded xenophobic or racist in order to undermine the real message. However now I do so with the intention of pointing out the duplicity of the British governments handling of the issue of economic immigration [...]

Shocking ban on New Zealand butter
July 18, 2006 By
Sir – It is shocking that the European Commission has been able to impose a ban on New Zealand’s exports of butter to the European Union. In view of our close historical ties with our cousins across the world, this has big historical resonance. So important is butter to the New Zealand economy that, when [...]
Why didnt they tell the Truth in 1972-5
May 18, 2006 By 3 Comments
I have no idea whether treason was committed in 1972/3 when we joined the then European Community, or at a later date, but the people were indeed told lie after lie on what the Community was about, it was “just a Common Market”, “about trade” and there would be “no loss of sovereignty”. Now we [...]
That Exit Clause Again
February 2, 2006 By Leave a Comment
The Europhile spin put on the EU Constitution Exit Clause, would have us all belive that we can not leave the EU at the moment because there is no EU recognised legal apparatus for doing so. The implication being; if we wish to leave the EU then first we must ratify the EU Constitution, which [...]

Some Letters in the Telegraph
June 29, 2005 By Leave a Comment
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, [...]

Jean Monnet that elusive Quote

Europe’s nations should be guided towards the super-state without their people understanding what is happening. This can be accomplished by successive steps each disguised as having an economic purpose, but which will eventually and irreversibly lead to federation.’

inopportune overflow of the European interventions
February 4, 2005 By Leave a Comment
I used babelfish to translate the UMP “9 reasons to say ‘yes’ to the EU Constitution” Unless the software made a compleate dogs dinner of the translation, it would seem that the French Europhiles are as adept at telling lies to the French people as the Dennis MacShane school of constitutional interpretation. They are however [...]
Quotes!

Quotes! I did not expect that this particular pro European would try to argue against the words of such a leading light in the European movement as Monnet. So I was to say the least, a little surprised to find the old argument resurrected because it has been disproved so many times, not by Eusceptics [...]

The EU Parliament, by putting pressure on the new EU Commision President Jos̩ Manuel Duṛo Barroso, to drop Rocco Buttiglione Рthe Italian Commissioner under fire for his conservative views on gays and women, is staking a claim to a superior level of power than the individual states that send their chosen Commissioners.

“Thirty years ago, we joined a common market that was little more than a free trade area. Foolishly, Ted Heath promised no reduction in national sovereignty – instead of emphasising the strength that comes when sovereignty is pooled. But we all knew that the Zollverein was only the beginning. The free trade area begat a [...]

A Free Trade Area?
September 12, 2004 By Leave a Comment
Europhiles would like us all to believe the EU is no more than a benign club of nation states who have chosen to come together to form a trading area between themselves, a free trade area that each sovereign nation state controls for its own benefit, only agreeing to those rules which suit it.
