SWRA Protest with MEP Graham Booth

Speech at County Hall, Exeter. July 15th, 2005.
In the Regional Development Committee meeting in Brussels last month the subject was "inter-regional, cross-border and trans-national co-operation."

From micro to macro co-operation you might say.
But they failed to discuss a very relevant display at an exhibition put on by the Dutch presidency in Brussels last December. It predicted the EU's position at various dates in the future.

By 2010 six new member states will have joined and ten more will have applied to join.

By 2022, the EU (then called the United Unions) will sign a free trade agreement with the Association of SE Asian countries, the African Union and Mercosur (South America), granting each other full access to each other's markets. In the same year agreements are reached on unrestricted travel, elimination of border control and right of employment between the four blocks, creating the largest single market and political sphere on earth. What you might call MEGA-MACRO co-operation!
I have been accused of making this up but I took the precaution of taking photos of the displays.

How on earth could a Mega-Superstate on that scale possibly work ? Imagine the level of immigration with no border controls over such a huge area.

The EU is already getting into serious difficulties, even at its present level.

Following the "NO" votes on the EU constitution from France and Holland and the impending failure of the euro in Germany and Italy, even Tony Blair the keenest of Europhiles, admits that the leaders of the EU's member states have lost touch with the public. THEY NEVER HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH US!

The EU was conceived and pursued in a way which deliberately resulted in a democracy by-pass.

The SWRA has a similar parentage.

There has been a rapid build-up of quangos such as this SWRA with no public involvement other than the spurious attempts to use Constitutional Conventions to establish a huge hunger for elected assemblies. In the only democratic test thus far, in the North East, there was a comprehensive rejection of the whole idea.

Ignoring the people, dancing to the ODPM's tune and building up huge pension liabilities as a future burden on the public purse when it is not an elected body - that is not the way to gain the public's support - if indeeed that is even sought !

Finally, I understand that at least three members of this SWRA failed to declare a pecuniary interest when their council approved the subscription to this Assembly. If untrue I stand to be corrected, but if it is true, this violation of the LGA is apparently not deemed important by the Standards Board, showing further ignorance of the standards required in public life.

I repeat the challenge that I made to the CEO last November that the future of this unelected Assembly be put to the test by offering a referendum to our South West voters and taxpayers - what could be more "inclusive and sustainable" than that?

I agree with Ghery. Leave! Please!!!! Then, help us stop the NAU over here.

If there's ever anything I can do to help you fulfill Ghery's request, let me know. The more of your videos I see, the more kinship I'm feeling with you. We are all truly in the exact same battle.

The North American Union is in the works all it takes now is for people to do nothing and it will be implemented. Keep the internet equal access and uncensored for the people, this is our hope to spread the information. Those in the EU are much further down the road and provide an example of what is going to happen over here. Check out Radio Liberty with Dr Stan Monteith, Alex Jones, Meria Heller, Jeff Rense for what is happening.

Its a lot more than nostalgia. Its a matter of Democracy, Civil rights, honesty and accountability in Government. In the NWO you dont have a say in your own land, the elite rule and the commoners obey and have no say. This is an age old strategy ... subdue the masses and make them chattels...nothing has changed. Watch the EU not let the UK leave or break it up with Devolution.

[Kalydosos]

Agreed good point!

Are you high? All the UK needs to do to leave the EU is to vote in a government that will take you out. As it is now though, the only party proclaiming to do so (UKIP) doesn't have a single seat (zero, 0) in the House of commons!

[erikvanvelzen]

To the british id like to say that they shouldnt believe all the lies being told about "the big evil burocrats in brussels" and do some research. The EU is democratic, voluntarily and a major stablizing factor in the world spreading the values every right-thinking citizens should stand for.

[erikvanvelzen]

If Britain doesnt want to stimulate global prosperity, democracy, and freedom it is free to leave the EU, and it always will be. There is always a way back.

[11Jamie11]

Agreed! I use my MP3 player to play podcasts of some of those, and other, shows. I learn while I walk/do chores/shop/drive/etc. Highly recommended!

[Gheryando]

please leave then, make it easier for the continentals who do not share your passion for nationalist nostalgia
