GB .v. EU

January 2008 - looking ahead!

December 13th Gordie arrived late and signed the 'Treaty of Lisbon' (aka the EU Constitution) - looking for publicity...and making sure we all saw you?! Then, with the ink barely dry, he rubber-stamped a dastardly new French power-grab. Titled as a 'European Dream', he agreed (on our behalf as usual) to support a clique of Brussels big-wigs (heads?) - 'the group of the wise' - I ask you! We've heard of these 'wise men' groups before.
They will spend two years drawing up a plan for the 'new vision' of Europe, chaired by Spanish Felipe Gonzalez, an old-style European Federalist. Two years sounds like 2009 when the new President and supporting coterie of Ambassadors and 'courtiers' are proposed - step up T. Blair - he's quietly rehearsing already!
"We don't need a Referendum, I can't think what all the fuss is about" - Gordie. Oh can't you - who do you think you are trying to fool?...Mr & Mrs GB spotted it all coming up years ago. [and will be doing something about it?....BUT that's up to YOU -  which includes everybody!]

2008 February's Fearsome Five

1. You will have heard of massive power increases coming up this year! Yes...Germans own Npower and propose a price hike of 27.1%. EON is owned by Germans, EDF by the French (and you will have noticed that they are going to build a Nuclear Plant (or two) for us..'guaranteed' by the GB government.) Scottish Power is part of a Spanish conglomerate. I wonder who let all these folk buy us out in the critical area of power?!! Don't also forget that BAA, who control the management of major British airports, is now owned by Spaniards.
2. The Prime Minister of Slovenia...yes, Slovenia...is currently leader of the EU. As Churchill once said (sorry to do one) "as for the Balkans, don't touch 'em with a barge pole."
3. Last year Poles working in the UK sent home £1.8 billion. Instead of being ploughed back into the flagging UK economy, these funds are triggering a property and consumer boom in Poland!
4. Thousands more asylum seekers are on the move across Europe...such as a family from Russia, into the Czech Republic, entering the EU via Poland and ending up in Austria. This so-called Schengen zone does not apply to Britain or Ireland ...YET!
Do we want any more of this nonsense?...you decide.

5. Romanian immigrants are being arrested by the truckload for trafficking children to the UK to support begging and stealing rackets. Yes, children...aged 1 to 17, so far!
The sight of a terrifed little tot being carried out of a lowly dwelling by a policewoman, clutching her little toy teddy bear, is very distressing.
The Poll called the Romanian Government's 'relief' at being able to export their criminal classes at the beginning of last year. Yes, GB gave up on proper documents, a photo of sorts stapled to a piece of paper was enough!
Overall immigrant related crime is reportedly up by 560%!

March Madness 2008.

Like school or a business, the results all depend on the 'head' and leadership. Let's look at the the 'big 5' in the EU as of recently.
1. The president of France marries a 'celeb' supermodel only a few months after divorcing his wife.
2. Germany refuses to support the US/UK Afghanistan effort by sending any troops.
3. Italy's president resigns after only a few months in office (again) and we are looking at the possibility of Berlusconi (again!)
4. The British government nationalises a collapsed high street bank after months of dithering around ...showing utter economic incompetence.
5. Spain displays some disgusting racist behaviour towards a fellow EU (GB) sportsman.
Generally...disgraceful exposure of MEPs expenses..snouts in the trough or, er, hands in the till?
Do you really want to belong to this shambles? Also, the Poll does not yet accept Kosovo as the 28th EU member...remember what 'old Winnie' said re the Balkans!

April Fools - that's all of us! - 2008

Seems as though the Frogs are now doing the wooing! President Sarkozy and wife (aka Mr & Mrs Blingo) visit GB and we immediately hear about entente etc. This includes the demand for 15,000 British troops to be placed under the flag of the   'European Army', a major French participation in the obvious forthcomig British nuclear power development programme and endless slush directed at the 'Constitution'...Gordie uses his two words of French "it's going to be entente formidable" ...ha, ha, ha!
UK farm shops and other produce exports are becoming too successful...so... DEFRA are indirectly closing more local abattoirs (a must-have for local farm shops) by applying draconian inspection charges - EU behind this one - and the Government FFB (Food From Britain) are cutting back drastically on their support ceasing March 31st 2009. 
  Of course GB produce, coupled with farmers' enthusiasm and flair is too good and the EU don't like it! 

May 2008 - GB goes free range!

Your car insurance goes up...influenced by drivers recently coming from the mainland EU. You got it - low standards, using continental licences (particularly Poles), uninsured, even unlicensed!
  Organic, locally reared beef in pubs and restaurants - ha, ha, ha! Dishes so billed = 20%+ meat from overseas.
Prisons are so full we now have 150 'bail hostels' - built in secret. Absconders, early releases and other 'offenders' (receiving very little support or supervision, if any) are now committing sex attacks, kicking and stabbing people to death etc...what fun!

June - EU 'jollities' 2008

  The Irish Referendum in the middle of the month. Watch the result...BUT BEFORE THAT do all you can to remind ALL your Irish contacts of the Patriotic Poll.
  UK County Councils (15 so far) are working with the EU (and some, er, funds) to structure road-pricing schemes for motorists...ie. congestion charges, road tolls etc!
  The EU 'red tape' regulations for shipping scrap metal to the major manufacturing markets - India, China et al - are strangling the UK initiatives in this field. Yes...that will mean that all the scrap will stay here...and, of course, let the Americans and other nations beat us to it!...yes, again - thank you the EU.

WHY CAN'T GB JUST RUN IT'S OWN SHOW?!

July 'gems' 2008

The Labour Party finish below both the Greens and the BNP in the Henley bye-elaction.
The EU is proposing that citizens of same can shop around the EU member states for medical care. Naturally for Brits, all expenses including travel, would be met by the NHS.
The Government is suggesting sex-education for children - four-year olds and upwards!
The latest Treasury figures show that our £20 billion deficit in the six months to March was entirely accounted for by our trade and other dealings with the EU...trade with the rest of the world was in balance.
...and talking of exports, £600 million worth per annum are in jeapordy due to the Government's stubborn refusal to cull badgers and hence stop the spreading of TB to our dairy cattle. GB's 'TB free' status is seriously at risk.
Anglican Church in top level talks with the Vatican!!! See 'Sovereignty' on our EU Rules page!

August - 2008
EU farm policy killer.

EU farming policies are killing more than 3,400 people in the UK each year, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO).
The common agricultural policy (CAP), with it's subsidies for fatty foods such as beef and butter, has encouraged unhealthy diets and triggered early deaths from heart disease and strokes.
This is split up into c. 2,400 heart cases and 1,000 strokes.

September Scenario

Law & Order. The Europol Police are training secretly in Central Italy, ready to filter into countries, particularly where law & order is reaching a level of civil disobedience - like in the UK??!!
Once established in a country, they will, of course, stay on a permanent basis.

October - think money!

Late September, a 'run' on Northern Rock Bank. "Don't worry, says the Prime Minister, we'll underwrite any losses. [with taxpayers money - he was Chancellor of the Exchequer for the past ten years, so used to spending that] The Bank of England's to blame." [ooo thinks ooo 'we separated ourselves into a win win situation - ha, ha, ha!]
But you can't do that says the EU - that's the Euopean Central Bank talking. IF you get 'constitutionalised' THEY will be dictating our banking policy, your pensions, interest rates and mortages. PM Gordie goes on to tell us "Access rights to the account [interest bearing deposits - ie your savings!] will be limited." Frightened of another one going over the cliff Gordie?!
Yes, he's still holding out for no GB referendum on the EU Constitution.

Pro Referendum Rally - in front of Houses of Parliament, October 27th, 12 noon.

November - going nuts!

or what a load of 'Ed'...he's now Minister for Children, Schools and Families...who thought this one up? He was Gordie's 'Treasury Guru', but both seem to have lowered their heads below the parapet with regard to Economics..we're technically bust, after ten years shuffling the pack to pay for a whole load of imports - and 'we' don't mean goods!
  As predicted Gordie signed away the semi-final aspect of GB taking on the EU Constitution - for good! "Don't worry, our red lines are all intact" - more like red herrings!
  Any sign of the Cons giving a Referendum lead on the subject, er, um? Wee Willy (Hague) has said "if the Reform Treaty [hey up, lad... you've been telling us it's the Constitution in disguise. Looks more like the 3 card trick, now you see it now you don't!] were signed the Tories would not alter it, but CONTINUE to work within and strengthen the EU!" Sounds like that silly old chestnut "in Europe but not ruled by it"...ha, ha, ha!
  Two of our major prisons are 100% full of foreign nationals...are'nt we short of prison space? But don't worry in 20 years time the population will have risen by 10 million net...with the EU contingent being the biggest contributor. Do we want any more - even now?...you decide!

December 2007 - Christmas Fare?!

Turkeys for Christmas - yes, yes. Turkeys into the EU** - no, no, talk about 'fowl pest'! Particularly when considering the style of loose cannons invading neighbouring countries, and squeezing out Greek Orthodox christians on their own turf.
Talk of N African countries also joining the 'Club' (Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco) could make for (plus Turkey) a straight flush of the founding Muslim five!
Happy Christmas <----and New Labour are planning to ban that!
**The Poll's New Year resolution..."No more EU in it's present format, no more Gordie & Co".

SO...You decide! Go immediately to the voting page for the latest state of play... and don't forget to vote!
