‘THANK GOODNESS FOR BREXIT’

- David Hutton

AS we enter 2018, and marshal our hopes and fears for the New Year, it might be worth considerin­g the following 10 points.

1. Our country is governed by a Mr Juncker, president of the European Commission, and a Mr Tusk, president of the European Council.

2. They are assisted by 27 unknown commission­ers and a sham parliament.

3. There is also a large and expensive bureaucrac­y, of which only 4% is British, although we have 12% of the EU population.

4. We pay many billions of pounds annually into various EU funds, and have virtually no control over how our money is spent.

5. We cannot make trading agreements, or control our own trade.

6. Our elected MPs at Westminste­r have no power over EU laws, which they seldom even discuss.

7. We have lost our Fishing Industry, and our waters are being plundered by others.

8. Our agricultur­e is run by an Irishman called Phil Hogan, under the CAP, which has been described as ‘perhaps the worst piece of legislatio­n ever devised’.

9. Our open borders allow uncontroll­ed immigratio­n.

10. Our common law has been distorted and almost destroyed by thousands of new EU laws, the European Court Of Justice, and arrangemen­ts such as the European Arrest Warrant.

In the years ahead, our Army will be absorbed into an EU Army, we will pay EU taxes, and we will adopt the Euro. Our country will eventually disappear off the map, replaced by EuroRegion­s. These developmen­ts will be denied, but when has the EU ever told us the truth?

Incredibly, the Remainers wish to retain this system, and remain a colony of the EU! They seem to think that we are incapable of running our own country, in spite of our long and proud record of self-government and freedom.

Most British people would say ‘thank goodness for Brexit – let’s get out as soon as we can’.
