Finally!

Britain is at last on the road back to sovereignty as the British ambassador delivers the formal letter starting the two-year process.

A great day.

Invade and destroy

From the BBC:

The EU should "do its best to undermine" the "homogeneity" of its member states, the UN's special representative for migration has said.

Translation: The UN's special representative for migration urges the EU to declare war against its member states.

It's time to invest heavily in tar and feathers.

No lifeboats left

Nigel Farage once again states the blindingly obvious.

Don't forget shotguns

Miami Herald Sun headline:

Election apocalypse: Greeks hoard canned food

I'd say when serious food hoarding starts, it's time for the European Empire to get ready for the end.

The logic of empire

From the BBC:

Speaking on German TV, [German Chancellor Angela Merkel] called for "more Europe", including a budgetary union, saying "we need a political union first and foremost".

That makes about as much sense as treating a gunshot victim by pumping more bullets into him.

Unhelpful

Deputy Prime Minister Nicholas "Nick" Clegg says that talk about hordes of refugees swarming from the Continent in the event of the Euro collapsing is "deeply unhelpful".

If you're part of a government that allows 250,000 immigrants, mostly illegal, swarming into Britain every year, then the prospect of facing an even larger wave due to your continued support the entire European Empire project that any sane person can't see as anything less than barking mad, then someone pointing out your utter uselessness might be "deeply unhelpful".

But that depends on to whom it's unhelpful.  For the rest of us, it's as helpful as raising the alarm on the eve of invasion.

Break up the Euro

The EU mind at the BBC.

A BBC Europhile laments the collapse of the dreams of establishing a European Empire and lets the mask slip with this litttle gem:

For myself, I had always been an enthusiastic pro-European and an unashamed believer in a federal European state. Like many English people of my tastes and proclivities, I rather fancied myself propping up zinc bars, sipping pastis and listening to the musical chink-clank of petanque. 

I viewed an increasingly united Europe as a necessary counterweight to US world hegemony and Russian idiocy, while also being a handy cosmopolitan stick with which to beat the backs of uptight Little Englanders.

That seems like a pretty fair characterisation of a BBC European Empire booster; a man who sees himself in Continental cafes, drinking anise-tinged cocktails and wouldn't be caught dead watching something as English as bowls, but is perfectly happy with petanque.  A man who isn't so much interested in dissolving nationalism as establishing Empire over sovereign states, is anti-american while critcising Russia strictly for the sake of form (and very likely for abandoning Communism).

But I think the final bit is most telling.  Above all else, he is a man who despises his own country and sees the entire, rotten European project as a stick to beat his fellow, retrograde countrymen.

It's a telling difference of philosophy.  A decent man who disliked his own country would just leave.  This sort isn't satisfied unless they conform to his will.

Euros disintegrating in sunlight

This is satire.  I pretty sure it is.  I think.

The future of Europe

Nigel Farage once again tells the Eurocrats some home truths they'd rather not hear.

I never thought I'd see so many grown men stuffing cheese in their ears at one time.

Down the memory whole

The European Empire declares that henceforth, the Second World War will be known as the European Civil War.  But that occurred before the Year Zero, so it doesn't matter.

We have always been at war with Eastasia.

Hannan on Iceland

There goes Daniel Hannan MEP talking sense again.

Circle girl to the rescue!

Financial Times headline:

Asia defence spending to overtake Europe

Fortunately, the European Empire has women who sit in circles with disapproving looks to defend it.

Time to go?

The European Empire is cracking wide. Is this the time to go?

Pat Condell: The Gathering Storm

Some reports have the Euro collapsing by Christmas and the Foreign Office seems to be of a similar opinion.  If it goes, then the whole rotten Empire comes down shortly afterwards.  Five years ago, I gave the EU 15 years to go.  Looks like I was off by 10.

The Junta robs Britain to pay Brussels

From the BBC:

The UK could potentially give up to £40bn to the IMF to help the global economy, Treasury Chief Secretary Daniel "Danny" Alexander has said.

Marvellous.  It's bad enough that the illegal junta lead by the traitor David Cameron acts like it's keeping New Labour's seat warm for them, guts the constitution on a bizarre whim, and cuts back the defence budget to the point where the seas around Britain are literally undefended; now they want to take enough money to build an entire nuclear-powered carrier group and hand the lot over the European Empire via an IMF money laundering scheme.

Now we know where their loyalties lie and it isn't with Britain.

God help us.

Decline is a choice

Proof from the Telegraph that the EU is a dead tyranny walking:

Beekeepers face being driven out of business by a European court ruling that pollen must be listed as an ingredient of honey.

No wonder the Empire has to go cap in hand to the Chicoms!

Breaking chains

Over at the Spectator, Ian Milne looks at what steps would be required for Britain to declare independence and leave the European Empire in two years' time.

Actually, two years is 729 days, 23 hours and 30 minutes too long.  All we need to do is vote to repeal the European Communities Act 1972 and we're out.  The rest is just house cleaning.

Some critics have pointed out that leaving the Empire would mean a nightmare of negotiating an avalanche of bilateral agreements to replace those with the Empire, but I prefer a simple solution to this that is also a neat little twist of the knife.  Instead of negotiating new treaties with France or Germany or Poland, Britain should take the euro-tyrants at their word about "ever closer union" and refuse to recognise the existence of any of the member states.  We could simply close our embassies in Paris, Berlin, Madrid or wherever, expand the one in Brussels and appoint a new ambassador to the Empire.

You want a meeting with the Prime Minister, Mr Sarkosy?  Sorry, he doesn't have time to chat with lowly provincial governors.

Marching to the Dark Ages

How's that carbon restriction working for you?

How much is the European Empire's EU's energy policy costing their serfs citizens?  Try double (emphasis added):

Average electricity prices for households and businesses would rise “strongly up to 2020-2030” under all scenarios, the document says, and the highest prices would occur after 2030 if renewable sources of power, such as wind and solar, make up a large share of energy production. For example, average prices for households could jump by more than 100 per cent by 2050 if this were the case but only by 43 per cent under a scenario that assumed more nuclear power and carbon capture and storage were used.

The governments of Europe and Britain have a clear choice:

a) Drop this insane "green" fantasy, recognise that cheap energy is the fuel of civilisation and start a proper programme of encouraging private investment in shale gas and nuclear power.

b) Step out into the street so the mob won't have to break down the door to tar and feather you.

Misfortune cookie

Demonstrating how valuable the European Empire is, the German finance minister recently doled out 16,000 fortune cookies containing stirring pro-EU slogans that would have made a Soviet Commissar proud.

The cookies cost €4,000.  That's €4 a cookie or £3.53 in real money.
