Free book: Ten Years on Britain Without the European Union

I'm a member of the Taxpayer's Alliance and received the following in an email today. There are only 5,000 copies available so please be considerate and only order one if you (or person you're gonna give it to as a pressie) will definitely read it :A

Ten Years On: Britain Without the European Union

The TPA is pleased to announce that the first 5,000 copies of our new book, Ten Years On by Dr Lee Rotherham, are now available to order free on a first-come-first-served basis. To pre-order your free copy, click here. As a TPA supporter, we are of course giving you advance notice of the book's release to make sure you get a chance to get your hands on a copy, which are normally priced at £5.99.

Here's a taster of what to expect from the book, which features a foreword by The Sun's Trevor Kavanagh and an epilogue by best-selling author Frederick Forsyth:

"If you traded something, made something, sold something, ran something, policed something, protected something, transported something, communicated something, fished something, grew something, stored something, repaired something, bought something, spent something, exchanged something, taught something, learned something, powered something, healed something, published something, researched something, reported something, supported something, Brussels had a say in it.
The EU was everywhere.
Now, ten years on, things are very different…"
Britain has been a member of the European Union for a third of a century, enduring all the waste, fraud and red tape that Brussels could imagine.
But what would it be like if one day Britain just said ‘Enough’?
Ten Years On takes us to a world where they have done just that. Dr Rotherham’s new book imagines a future where Britain is free to control its own affairs, to strike its own deals and to decide its own fate.
This is your opportunity to get a vivid glimpse of how the future could be very, very different. Click here to order your copy today.

    This is not spam, political or otherwise, it is a legitimate freebie like any other. No-one is forcing anyone to send for it unless they are interested (nor are they likely to bother!), which a fair number of us are.

    So please keep your left wing political views to yourself, lol!

    Don't think this is 'spam' spam.

    Although some may see it as some sort of reticule if they do not have the same political interests it actually doesn't look like spam in the spammy, spam sense.

    I think it's one of those freebies that seem to attract political/regilous discussion or opinion which is 'going off topic' when really it should just be seen as a freebie that if anyone likes/wants they press thanks and send off for and comment if they want to, or if they don't want or like it, just don't send off for it or comment.

    Have requested it myself - having worked for a Union for years it sounds very interesting to me - but will post if it turns out to be 'spam' spam.

    In the meantime, thanks for the post and lets hope this doesn't turn into a 'discussion' thread (particularly a negative or confrontational one!) instead of an optional freebie post.

    Pathetic. There's a chance to get a free political book, you don't happen to agree with the author's views so you call it 'spam' and try to get it removed from the board to stop anyone else enjoying the offer :rolleyes:

    I know no more about this book that you do - I just happened to receive the info via a mailing list and posted it here for anyone else who might be interested. But it's obvious that it's a real book that's for sale on Amazon for 6 quid. If it's your cup of tea - order it; if it's not, don't. It's no more spam than an offer to get a free copy of Will Hutton's The State We're In would be. If I came across an offer for a free 'leftie' political book I wouldn't order it myself, but I would certainly post the info here for others with different political views to me to take advantage of.
