Now LibDems withdraw EU referendum promise

Nick Clegg stated simple facts about asking the people in Feburary 2008, writing

Nobody in this country under the age of 51 has ever been
asked that simple question. That includes half of all MPs. We’ve been
signed up to Europe by default: two generations who have never had
their say.

On June 16th this year, speaking on Radio 4’s You and Yours, Nick Clegg said:

the only way to sort out the debate about EU membership was to
have a referendum in this country as to whether we stay
in or stay out. What we can’t do is to be a member of a club and
complain about it from the sidelines.

Today, the BBC reported Ming Campbell's appearance on the Daily Politics Show.

The Lib Dems have ditched their pledge for an “in or
out” referendum on UK membership of the EU, ex leader Sir Menzies
Campbell has said….Sir Menzies told the Daily Politics there was “no
public appetite” for a vote since Lisbon Treaty ratification.

Well the LibDems may think that there is no public appetite, but a visit to the Albion Alliance website will show you how to fight back if you think differently. Poll after Poll has consistently shown that the people of Britain want their voices heard. I think the Libdems have got the mood terribly wrong, so on their own heads be it..

EU Empire – fingerprints at the UK border

IanPJ Main Page 2 comments

As from today, in true East German style, travel checks will begin for UK borders.

“From
30 November 2009, the UK Border Agency is introducing fingerprint
checks at the border for passengers with biometric UK visas,
entry clearances and identity cards for foreign nationals (ICFNs).
This is being introduced incrementally at ports across the United
Kingdom by March 2010.”

It should be noted that the
UK is to fingerprint children of 6 years old and above – unlike
the provisions in the EU Directive which sets the age at 12 years
old and above.

Remember that the East German system was designed not only to keep the unauthorised out, but primarily to keep the East German population in….

It begins – Press Release from the Empire #1

As The Lisbon Treaty has now been ratified by the governments of all 27 members states, (I say governments because the 500m people of those members states with the exception of 4m Irish, were denied a say on the matter), the Treaty will come into force at midnight tonight.

At 00:01 on Tuesday 1st December 2009, the empire is born. The first legally constituted institutions of the EU State are now being put into place, despite all the denials from our politicians that the EU would NOT become a state..

One of the most powerful of those new Institutions is the Court of Justice of the European Communities. It has therefore just pronounced its arrival via the empire's first press release, and the changes that will now take place as a result.

To give you a taster, here are the first couple of paragraphs. (highlights mine)

The Treaty of Lisbon, which was signed on 13th December 2007 by the 27 Heads of State or Government of the Member States of the Union, comes into force on 1 December 2009. It amends the two fundamental treaties – the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and the Treaty establishing the European Community, with the latter to be known in future as the 'Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union' (TFEU).

1. Changes in the organisation of the Court and the appointment of its Members.
The European Union, which will henceforth have legal personality, will replace the European Community. Accordingly, under the Treaty of Lisbon, the 'pillar' structure will disappear and the Union will have a new institutional framework. As a result, in common with the institutions to be renamed, the whole court system of the European Union will be known as the Court of Justice of the European Union, comprising 3 courts: the Court of Justice, the General Court and the Civil Service Tribunal.

So where now is the British Crown Court? the County and Magistrates Court? Did Jack Straw tell you all some porkies?

Here, read the whole thing for yourself, and be as disgusted and angry as I am. I now await the flood of new regulations that have been waiting in the wings for this day, for a flood there will indeed be.

If you want an interpretation of what we will be losing, what will be changing, then read this, it will only make you tremble with anger.

But don't just sit there and fume, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

You can TRY to make a change happen if you really want to. You can join the Albion Alliance, a pressure group set up to petition Parliamentary Candidates to stand up and speak for the people rather than their party, and demand and work for a referendum on the UKs relationship with the EU. Not in 5 years time when there will be nothing left of the UK, but now, within 1 year of a new parliament.

Albion Alliance needs all the grassroots support that it can get. Make your voice heard now.
