Cameron to fight our corner...

Apparently Camerlot is going to fight for our rights in any reform of the EUSSR treaties (BBC news), how will this be any more successful than standing against the increase in EUSSR budget?

    Absolute !!!!!!!!! It is patently bloody obvious, as I've said for some time now, that we are facing, very soon, major EU treaty changes that will affect the UK massively in future years. Don't be fooled by this pathetic posturing by Cameron. The adoption by the UK of the Euro is now moving more rapidly than it ever has before! The ECB becoming lender of last resort is now nothing more than a mere pen stroke away and our contributions to the IMF doubling, tripling, or more, to provide further support to the euro zone is already a done deal!

    The inevitable is now more inevitable than it has ever been before, bar a few very expensive PR based statements by the technocratic EU uber-elite, to keep the gullible electorate, now largely without any democratic rights whatsoever, happy for the time being.

  • Well he did manage to keep the budget lower than what they wanted to increase it by.

    It could be a whole lot worse, Imagine Red Ed at the table lol.

    This might be the best opportunity we get to renegotiate a way out of the politics leaving us with just the trade. If he gets our own borders back to so we can stop the immigration I think he will get back in despite the current financial pain.
  • Bet we don't get the referendum as promised if there is a treaty change

    With the amount of EU immigration we will be absorbed by stealth never mind what happens on the fiscal/monetary/trade/referendum front.

    They have already made sure we are not self sufficient on many fronts, food production being one.
