Senior Conservative Euro-Federalists from 1998 are still
with us in 2005.
In
the Freedom Today journal of the Freedom Association in February 1998
under the Chairmanship of the late Norris McWhirter CBE an article by a
member of the Freedom Association’s management committee Professor
Anthony Flew in response to a letter sent to the Independent
by the Conservative Euro-Federalists.
Much of the content of the article has appeared in a
number of the essays shown on our Bulletin Board nevertheless it is appropriate
to have a further review of the points raised to show that the so-called
Conservative Party has not moved in its admiration of the EU and with a General
Election only a few month’s away in May 2005 a reminder to beware of false
promises and gifts.
*
On 5 January 1998, just as the working New Year was beginning, Lord Howe
of Aberavon, Edward Heath. Michael Heseltine, Kenneth Clarke and eight other
senior Conservative Euro-federalists published a letter in The
Independent. This letter declared their support for what they commended
as the Prime Minister’s positive approach to Euro-negotiations, expressed their
enthusiastic support for joining the common Euro-currency and promised that they would all be
active campaigners for a ‘Yes’ vote in the eventual referendum.
Misguided policy
That
policy as stated by the leader was to say ‘No’ only to joining the common
Euro-currency during the present Parliament or the next, leaving open the
possibility of our joining after that.
But this temporising policy was, we must hope, adopted only to retain
the support of the signers of that letter and their like.
In
that misguided aim it has failed (1998) quite dramatically. So William Hague should now feel free to
abandon his appeasement of the unappeasable.
Instead he ought categorically, absolutely and permanently to reject the
very idea of the UK abandoning its own currency. He should on this supreme
issue complement Lady Thatcher’s ‘No!’ No!
No! ‘With his ‘Never! Never! Never!’
For the project for the common Euro-currency is not, and
should not be judged as being, a purely or even mainly economic project. Instead, as everyone who wants to know
already knows, it is, and by its continental sponsors and controllers is advocated
as being, the major, the irreversible step which will make inevitable the
establishment of a single common government for the emerging United States of
Europe
[Written
in 1998 and in 2005 the UK is the only member-state of the previous 15 which
has not joined the Single Currency because of the opposition of the People -and
a previous President of the EU has stated that we were right to keep out - ‘UP
Yours’ Delors - see No.25 - details on
our General Bulletin Board]
To take this step [join the single currency] is,
therefore, simultaneously to abandon [our] home rule and national independence
Anxious pretence
The
reason why most Euro-federalists in the UK both deny that that is what they
are, and pretend that joining or not joining the common Euro-currency is simply
and solely a matter of the balance of economic advantage and disadvantage, is
that they are not confident that they could persuade even the younger British
generation to take the step of joining if their eyes were opened to what and
all that this step would involve. And
the Euro-federalists apparently suffer this anxiety despite all the efforts of trendy teachers to ensure
that their pupils lack any of the knowledge of British history which might have
the effect of effacing their proper, politically-correct shame for being born
British.
There are relevant quotations from two great Prime
Ministers of earlier centuries. The
first comes from a speech made by a Tory.
[Please
take note Mr Kenneth Clarke and your traitorous cronies]
William
Pitt the younger, on 31st May 1781.
In
it he said, of and to members of the House of Commons, that they:
“…hold
the strings of the national purse, and are entrusted with the great important
power, first of granting the money and then of correcting the expenditure. To delegate this right, then, is a violation
of what gives them their consequence in the legislature, and what, above all
other privileges, they cannot surrender or delegate without a violent breach of
the constitution.
The
second quotation comes from a speech made at Hastings on 17th May
1891 by William Ewart Gladstone.
(He
was, of course, a classical Liberal, rather than a modern Liberal or Social
Democrat.)
He
said then:
“
The finance of the country is ultimately associated with the liberties of the
country. It is a powerful leverage by which English liberty has been gradually
acquired…If the House of Commons by any possibility lose the power of control
of the grants of public money, depend upon it, your very liberty will be worth
very little in comparison. That powerful leverage has been known as the power
of the purse-the control of the House of Commons over [ALL] expenditure.”
Appalling prospect
Even those who may believe that our liberties are
adequately safeguarded by the incorporation of the European Declaration of
Human Rights into UK law, and who are unworried by the constitutional
impropriety of the successive delegations consequent upon the Treaties of:
ROME
MAASTRICHT
AMSTERDAM
ROME
[2004]
[NEW EU CONSTITUTION
-LISBON-2008]
ought
to be appalled by the prospect of surrendering all the powers and privileges of
our national Parliament in which British MEPs of all parties will always be a
relatively tiny majority.
[Fortunately
in 2005 we have a Referendum to decide whether our nation will still be a
self-governing nation in the 21st Century though if the unexpected
happened because of the unwillingness of many to see the dangers- the battle
would continue into Civil War-there would be no alternative left to those who
cherish their country's and their own Independence under the historic Common
Law of England]
For
our EU ‘partners’ already gain substantially from their exploitation of our
fishing grounds [Which Edward Heath decided to give away without a thought
in the negotiations of entry into the supposed European Common Market in
1972.]
.
From
our membership of their Common Agricultural Policy, and from our net
contribution to EU funds (our tribute quota).
And our own Europhiles (people whom members of my generation are
inclined to regard and abhor as collaborators with a foreign, occupying power)
have still made no attempt to meet Norman Lamont’s challenge (written in
1996) to specify a single substantial compensatory economic benefit from
our EU membership.
[In
2005 though the Government has been asked the same question in the House of
Lords by Lord Pearson and 50 other members of that House -details on our
Bulletin Board -an answer is still unforthcoming. We wonder why?]
Coalition of collaborators
So
how else can we explain the eagerness of those ’partners’ to involve the UK in
their common Euro-currency, and consequently to subordinate the UK to the
common Euro-government, except as due to their desire further to exploit what
they must very reasonably see as a nation of suckers ruled by a de facto
coalition of collaborators?

With the signing of the Maastricht Treaty the
people of Britain were given
DUAL CITIZENSHIP
-both
EUROPEAN and BRITISH
The extra tier of citizenship was thrust upon
the people without their consent -and in many cases knowledge.
The PEOPLE of GREAT BRITAIN should be allowed
the option of opting out of the EUROPEAN CITIZENSHIP if they so wish. The
GOVERNMENT will then be able to provide those who have opted out with
BRITISH DOCUMENTATION
-only such as British (not EU) passports,
driving licences and other national documents.
EU laws will also NOT APPLY to those who
HAVE OPTED OUT OF EUROPEAN CITIZENSHIP

(John Mortimer)
YOU CAN'T HAVE BOTH.
WILL THIS CHRISTMAS QUEEN'S SPEECH
BE THE
LAST IN A
FREE INDEPENDENT ENGLAND -SCOTLAND AND WALES?
Will
HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN ASSURE YOU THAT YOU
HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR FROM BECOMING A
PROVINCE OF EUROPE.
OR
WILL
THE QUEEN MAKE IT PLAIN THAT OUR FREE
INDEPENDENT NATION STATE IS SACROSANCT BUT
THAT IF THE PEOPLE WISH TO BECOME SLAVES
-THEN A REFERENDUM THERE MUST BE.
WE BELIEVE
THAT NO ENGLISHMAN SHOULD BE ASKED WHETHER
HE WISHES TO BE A SLAVE OR FREE!
THIS
CHRISTMAS WE WILL FIND OUT IF OUR PROTECTOR
OF THE
'Rights and Liberties'
of
Englishmen
Will keep
by HER SACRED OATH
or the
MONARCHY be nothing more than a
THEME
PARK in the future
THIS IS
THE TIME FOR BLUNT SPEAKING AS THE VERY
EXISTENCE OF OUR UNIQUE NATION STATE IS IN
DIRE PERIL.
We are told on the BBC (Brussels
Broadcasting Service) at 11.30 pm on
Saturday the 23rd December, 2007, that the
QUEEN now has a website which has footage of
the Royal Family in the past and that the
QUEEN is NOT
'Stuck in the past'
Well! as
far as many patriotic subjects are concerned
we need to remain in the PAST when it
concerns the protection of our
FREEDOM
and COUNTRY.
Change we
have had and will continue to have but it
must not threaten our very WAY-OF-LIFE our
Common Law of England and all which makes
our country the most unique parliamentary
democracy in the world.
THERE CAN
BE NO SURRENDER!
Should the Monarch fail to protect our
inherited RIGHTS and Liberties then we shall
have to fight for a REPUBLIC as
happened in the 17th century because the
Monarch of the day ignored those very
'Rights and Liberties of Englishmen' which
will still survive in the English Speaking
World today in December 2007. How can the
MOTHER of PARLIAMENTS give away what is
already our and our children's
INHERITANCE which cannot be taken away by
PARLIAMENT or the QUEEN.
If the above publicity
exercise is to be used to soften the impact to
the population of the BETRAYAL of their
CONSTITUTION and COUNTRY then it would be
the greatest TREASON by a Monarch since
James II who wished to sell our COUNTRY to the FRENCH
for MONEY and RELIGION.
WE ASK WHAT PRICE ARE OUR RIGHTS AND
LIBERTIES WORTH?
THEY ARE PRICELESS!
*
*
The
Choice is Yours!-but time is running out
FAST!
6 months to be EXACT!
*
THE EU
WE-AND THEM!
WE are to
join THEM
THEY are not
joining US
WE have more to LOSE
THEY have
more to GAIN
WE have been clear of dictators from EUROPE
for most of our HISTORY
THEY have
been cursed with that abomination for most
of their HISTORY and NOW!

*
MESSAGE TO
HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH THE II
*
We now learn
from the Daily Mail COMMENT on Christmas Eve
that the Queen's Speech will cover the
catastrophic fall in Values and Moral
behaviour since the beginning of her 56
-year reign. This has been brought about by
the actions of HER MINISTERS and the greater
number of those in HER PARLIAMENT who have
placed THEIR CONCERNS before the INTERESTS
of THE PEOPLE and NATION STATE.
As for
the fact that HER PEOPLE feel LOST that has
been the direct result of the actions of HER
SUCCESSIVE GOVERNMENTS and the TRAITOROUS
POLITICIANS including PRIME MINISTERS who
have stealthily over the 56 years of HER
MAJESTY'S REIGN have almost achieved their
aim of ENSLAVING the PEOPLE to a FOREIGN
POWER.
The reason
for the marked drop in the number viewing
THE QUEEN'S SPEECH is no doubt because the
mass of people have realised years ago that
the MONARCH is powerless to PROTECT their
WAY-OF-LIFE and events up to now have PROVED
THEM CORRECT.
There is a well know saying
'Nero fiddled while Rome burned'
Is it the case on
Christmas Day 2007 while the Monarch
talks our Rights and Liberties are
being taken from us under our very
noses?
Of course the QUEEN
under HER CONSTITUTIONAL ROLE can only
'Advise and Warn' HER MINISTERS but when
the matter concerns the very LIFE of an
INDEPENDENT STATE we expect that HER MAJESTY
consider the arrangement to be AT AN END as
it would make a MOCKERY of the PRIME
IMPORTANCE of the MONARCH to protect our
inherited Rights and Liberties which HER
MINISTERS are endeavouring TO GIVE
AWAY.
We as loyal
subjects of the MONARCH who is the living
embodiment of OUR RIGHTS and LIBERTIES
ask at this late stage with only months to
the eradication of a FREE NATION STATE some
veiled comments that HER MAJESTY will
PROTECT our RIGHTS and LIBERTIES.
As for the
MORAL tone of the NATION STATE at this most
crucial time in ENGLISH CONSTITUTIONAL HISTORY this matter
should be left to CHURCH LEADERS who's
responsibility it is to CARE for their
FLOCKS particularly at this FESTIVAL of
CHRISTMAS.
IF HER
MAJESTY'S SPEECH has not been pre-recorded
we ask HER MAJESTY to give those MILLIONS of
HER subjects some hope that their PROTECTOR
has NOT FORGOTTEN THEM.
Should this
APPEAL not be answered we can at last
confirm that the MONARCHY is after all
nothing more than a talking shop suitable
for YouTube and therefore nothing more than
a
THEME PARK

A
CHRISTMAS MESSAGE
TO
ALL OUR
VIEWERS.
WE WISH YOU ALL A
HAPPY
CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY
NEW YEAR
IN
2008
[Since our
Xmas message to you all last year we find
that our sentiments remain the same with the
added emphasise on the coming danger to YOUR
COUNTRY from those many traitors in YOUR
HOUSE of COMMONS who intend to sell YOUR
COUNTRY to a FOREIGN POWER]
We Remember The
Year 2006
The
Spirit of England-Winston Churchill-1953
[We
were warned in 1953 to beware of wreckers of
our Constitution and Way-of- Life but it had
taken Tony Blair just 10 years to do just
THAT while everyone had their minds they
thought on more important matters. Well! in
2007 his predessessor Gordon Brown is
leading you to SLAVERY and only awaits the
final signature of the present holder of the House of Wessex the over 1000 year
PROTECTOR of our inherited
RIGHTS and LIBERTIES of ENGLISHMEN
HER
MAJESTY-THE QUEEN
Of the House
of Wessex since King Alfred 'the Shepherd
and Darling of England' in the annals of 893
-897
'We still
leave it to the work of
Alfred the Great
that
England was saved to become the first
individual nation -state which over 1100
years later a member of that same House of
Wessex has already signed away much of those
ancient Rights and Liberties and
fundamentals of justice and Rule of Law and
only awaits a final signature to enslave her
people into a despotic undemocratic godless
police state to call itself a
UNITED STATES
OF EUROPE
It is
within the power of Her Majesty the Queen to
refuse to ratify the New EU TREATY because
whatever lies her ministers have given her
over her long reign the TRUTH is now clear
for ALL TO SEE.
In the
Netherlands a number of years ago their
MONARCH resigned for a day rather than sign
the Bill put before him. The New EU TREATY
is the death of a NATION STATE of over 1200
years in the making. It is the treasonable
actions of HER MINISTERS which has placed
THE QUEEN in the forefront in the protection
of the Rights and Liberties of HER SUBJECTS
as on no one else can HER PEOPLE DEPEND.
GOD SAVE
THE QUEEN

BE THE LAST IN A

OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS WILL PORTRAY ITSELF

'Don't tell the voters-or you

"...we have to make sure
that there are no discussions taking place
in the open air"
Guenter
Burghardt, a former EU ambassador to the US,
warning that details of the new EU
diplomatic service (officially to be known
as the External Action Service) should not
be discussed in public before the
UK
PARLIAMENT
had
ratified the NEW EU TREATY
and Ireland has held
its TREATY REFERENDUM early next summer
(source: EU Observer on 27th
November ,2007
The EU has also stated
that none of its institutions should rock
the boat until the English have ratified
their TREATY.
Over the next few months
you will hear more than ever the wonderful
benefits of the EU. Whether it is Global
warming or whatever they feel shows them in
a good light and when you have swallowed the
bait you will not know what has hit you.
They intend to show how reasonable they are
and that they are there to make you happy.
If you all fall for this con-trick then you
will deserve the SLAVERY that is in store
for
YOU!
