UKIP has launched a petition calling for a referendum on our continued membership of the European Empire.
Ignoring the fact that the petition says Great Britain when it should say United Kingdom (another of my pet hates!) it’s one worth signing. This petition is going to be a big one, a lot of resources are being [...]

Conservative Home has confirmed what we’ve been saying along – the Tories will not hold the referendum they promised on the Lisbon Treaty/EU Constitution.
Tim Montgomerie has tried to spin David Camoron’s treachery claiming that the last line of his cast-iron guarantee to hold a referendum means that no promise is being broken:
No treaty should be [...]

The people of Ireland have been bullied, cheated and bribed into voting for the EU Constitution aka the Lisbon Treaty.
Despite yesterday’s referendum being on exactly the same Treaty already rejected this year in Ireland, the Irish have been conned into believing the “guarantees” they have been given that the Treaty will be changed are legally [...]

74% of residents in Edinburgh voted against a road pricing scheme. 79% of residents in Manchester voted against a road pricing scheme. 1.8m people signed a petition on the Prime Minister’s website calling on the British government to abandon plans for road pricing.
The European Empire’s response? Ignore the referenda and press on with promoting road [...]

Peter Mandelson (I won’t call him Lord Mandelson, a man without honour doesn’t deserve an honourary title) says that the UK will join the Euro.
Does it remain an important objective for Britain to find itself in the same currency as that single market in which it interacts? Obviously yes. 
Important objective for who Mandy? Not for [...]

Thanks to our glorious overlords on the continent and their proxy war with the US through the medium of anti-trust lawsuits against Microsoft, Windows 7 in Europe will ship without Internet Exploder.
Yes, Internet Explorer is a shit browser but there are plenty of websites out there that just don’t work properly with Firefox and other browsers and [...]

A poll by ConservativeHome shows that 77% of Tories think Tory MPs and PPCs should be able to sign up to the Better Off Out campaign.
David Camoron has banned Tories from publicly opposing the UK’s membership of the European Empire via the Better Off Out campaign. Supporters of Better Off Out are not allowed to [...]

The British government has unveiled plans to install gas and electricity smart meters in every house at the customer’s expense. Installation of the smart meters will be mandatory.
According to the British government, the meters will save consumers money and reduce CO2 emissions. The meters don’t make electricity or gas cheaper and they don’t reduce the [...]

The Identity and Passport Service (IPS) has awarded £650m of contracts to CSC and IBM to build its national identity register even though the Tories said they will repeal ID card and national identity register legislation when they win the next election.
The IPS have justified pissing £650m up the wall because they need to record [...]

No, this isn’t the new UK Fuel logo for a new type of eco-friendly power station, it’s the logo of the United Kingdom First Party.
The motto of the UK First Party is “Country before self” – a rallying call for fascists everywhere, very Musollini-esque.
Fascism is a radical, authoritarian nationalist ideology that aims to create a [...]

This excellent letter appeared in the Shropshire Star on Saturday:

England is denied EU aid benefit by Labour
The Labour Government is denying England a windfall from the European Union yet it is making sure that Wales, Scotland and Ulster benefit.
The fall in the value of the pound has increased the value of euro-denominated EU grants by [...]

Total have exposed Gordon Brown’s “British jobs for British people” pledge for what it is – a big fat lie.
Gordon Brown can’t do a single thing to ensure that jobs in the UK are given to people from these isles because control of our borders was handed over to Federal Europe years ago.
Total has awarded [...]

Via the Devils Kitchen, this from Raedwald:
Have you paid a parking fine recently? Got three points on your licence? Been formally warned by the council for your bin protruding on the footway? (yep, I have had the £1,000 fine threat on the last one) Been suspended from your Sunday football league for rough tackling? (yes, [...]

Last week the island of Sark in the Channel Islands held its first ever election for the Chief Pleas, the parliament of Sark.  Sark is a Crown Dependency and is therefore not part of the UK or the EU but the elections were held to comply with the EU Convention on Human Rights.
Until last week [...]

Yes, I know I’m being lazy re-posting things I’ve written elsewhere but there are only so many hours in a day and I do have to work for a living!
I’ve just posted this on Bloggers4UKIP:

Working Time Directive will cost billions
Earlier today I wrote about the EU Parliament voting to abolish the UK’s opt-out of the [...]

Two English men have successfully challenged South Yorkshire Police’s decision to retain their DNA samples even though neither of them have been convicted of a crime.
The Police have amassed the world’s largest database of DNA samples, a sizeable proportion of which were retained illegally before the law was changed to allow them to keep DNA [...]

The Bank of England is loaning £100m to the UK arm of Landsbanki so that it can repay its UK customers.
Landisbanki was nationalised by the Icelandic government last week and its UK arm closed down leaving customers here unable to access their money.
The Icelandic foreign minister has responded to the economic problems there – national debt at [...]

Our beloved leader, President McBrown, threw carbon footprint to the wind and jetted off to Europe at the weekend to decide on a common EU response to the economic problems but when push came to shove, national interest came first for our federalist colleagues over the water.
The Republic of Ireland announced it was guaranteeing ever [...]

Via an Englishman’s Castle, an Australian holocaust denier has been arrested in the UK to be extradited to Germany to stand trial for breaking their holocaust denial laws.
Dr Toben runs a holocaust denial website which is illegal in Germany but not in England. He was in transit from the US to Dubai, stopping off [...]

Regular reader, KeithS, send me this message this morning:
You can rely on the EU never to give up on a bad cause…
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/3075189/EU-resurrects-daytime-running-lights-plan.html 
You’re not wrong Keith.  Back in October 2006, Federal Europe said that it wanted every vehicle to have its lights on at all times.  They said it would save lives but motorcycling groups inundated the [...]

It’s no secret that Federal Europe hates blogs – they don’t like the idea of a source of topical information and commentary that they can’t control. Hence their calls for regulation of blogs.
Sadly, they have found a way of silencing Gawain Towler, the author of England Expects. Gawain works for the Independence and Democracy group [...]

Federal Europe is going to force mobile phone companies to cut the cost of text messages in Europe from an average of 23p to 9p.
Whoop de fucking do.
Hands up who’s been abroad this year. Hands up who sent loads of text messages while they were there. Hands up who regularly uses their mobile [...]

I was bored the other day so I thought I’d have another pop at getting the Home Office to tell me how to renounce my EU Citizenship …
Hi,
I have emailed about this a few times but nobody ever comes back to me. I suspect the answer is inconvenient for you but I really would [...]

Federal Europe’s own internal auditors have refused to sign off their accounts for the 14th year running.
Every year the European Court of Auditors refuse to sign off the EU’s accounts because of the rampant fraud and corruption that sees £1 in every four lost to fraud and bureaucracy.
Federal Europe is after a 3.15% increase in [...]

A few months ago I started a petition on the 10 Downing Street website calling on the British government to commission an independent cost-benefit analysis of our membership of Federal Europe.
Here’s their response:
This Government strongly believes that the benefits of EU Membership clearly outweigh the costs. UK membership of the EU is central to the [...]

German police in Passau have dug up the grave of a neo-nazi to remove a swastika flag that was thrown onto it when he was buried.
The swastika is banned in Germany, along with other symbols of Naziism and the glorification of Naziism.  It is illegal to posess a swastika (presumably Hindu’s are allowed a swastika [...]

Well, it was bound to happen eventually – the acre has fallen to the forces of Europeanism.
Federal Europe has issued a directive on the harmonisation of measuring open spaces which specifically bans the use of the acre from 2010.  The directive was given the nod by the eurofederalist minister for the south east euroregion of [...]

The Belgian Prime Minister has tendered his resignation after only a few months heading up a coalition government hastily thrown together under pressure from Federal Europe to prevent delays to the ratification of the EU not-a-Constitution.
Unsurprisingly, the Belgian government has fallen on its arse yet again, this time over a devolution package that would give [...]

Stuart Wheeler has lost his court case to stop the ratification of the EU not-a-constitution.
Sadly (but not surprisingly) the judge ruled that the British govenment was perfectly entitled to lie in its manifesto and that the contract it makes with the electorate in the run-up to an election isn’t worth the paper it’s written on.
The result [...]

A friend of mine has just got back from a week in Strasbourg and said the thing that stuck most in her mind from the whole trip was the vote on the harmonisation of road signs which would have the effect of changing all our road signs to metric.
Only 8 MEPs voted against the measure [...]
