Whilst 'we' knew this.........

……..it is nice to have it confirmed. From Angela Merkel, quoted in the Guardian:

“My vision is one of political union because Europe needs to forge its own unique path. We need to become incrementally closer and closer, in all policy areas. Over a long process, we will transfer more powers to the [European] Commission, which will then handle what falls within the European remit like a government of Europe. That will require a strong parliament. A kind of second chamber, if you like, will be the council comprising the heads of [national] government. And finally, the supreme court will be the European court of justice. That could be what Europe’s political union looks like in the future – some time in the future, as I say, and after a goodly number of interim stages.“

The ‘goodly number of interim stages’ would appear to be well under way, as Helen, Your Freedom and Ours, posts. (Follow the link Helen provides to read the actual exchange in Lords Hansard). So much for the European Union Act! Meanwhile Richard North, EU Referendum, writes that “Angela Merkel, according to Reuters, has rejected as “unfounded” stereotypes about a domineering, dogmatic Germany…….”.


As Captain Ranty writes – be afraid, be very afraid. However, to free yourself and your nation from a very nasty, very greedy, very unaccountable, very obviously power-hungry unelected group calling themselves the EU, first we have to free ourselves and our nation from a very nasty, very greedy, very ‘unaccountable’, very obviously power-hungry group calling themselves our government!


And the only way we are going to do that is by adopting direct democracy and ‘referism’!
