Just remember this..
We were taken into the EU by that lying, traitorous, tory ******* Ted Heath. Were the british people consulted on this??? NO, we were all deliberately lied to and told that it was "the common market", "Just a trading arrangement is all" [No mention of "EU"]
Heath was questioned about us "losing sovereignty" and flatly denied this; he actually said;
“There are some in this country who fear that going into Europe we shall in some way sacrifice independence and sovereignty. These fears, I need hardly say, are completely unjustified"
In particular, the liar was questioned about our "territorial waters" and one of his ministers told the house of commons that; "We retain full jurisdiction over our coastal waters’. This was a complete lie, along came the Common Fisheries Policy and that was the end of our fishing industry... They claimed at the time that; "the Government is determined to secure proper safeguards for the British fishing industry’
This sort of thing sound familiar does it???
In the early 1990's Heath was asked if he had known all along that Britain was signing up to a federal European state, he replied, ‘Of course, yes’.
Heath later admitted that he knew full well that all this would result in a loss of sovereignty [this was proved anyway when papers were released a few years ago under the "thirty year rule"] and he was asked why he lied to the british people...
His response???? ‘the British public are too stupid to be involved in governing themselves’..
So, what have we gained?? The ruination of our fishing industry, shopkeepers being jailed for selling a pound of bananas to old ladies, illegal road signs [they are not supposed to have metres on them] and the list goes on..
We did gain the "human rights act" but governments can opt out of all the bits they do not like when it suits them [they are called "derogations"] but no, the only people that have gained anything with the human rights act are terrorists, murderers, child rapists, and illegal immigrants, oh, and all the bogus "asylum seekers"
Just for the record, the are NO genuine asylum seekers in the uk, it is not possible. The law requires that they claim asylum in the first safe country they get to. Since it is IMPOSSIBLE to get to the uk without passing through a "safe country" every last one of them is bogus...
So, you were all lied to by one traitorous tory ******* in the early 1970's, are you all going to allow yourselves to be lied to by another one?????
