Dateline 6th February 2007

In an extraordinarily naïve article in The Sunday Telegraph 4th February 2007 David Cameron betrays that dangerous ignorance of the European Union which characterises the entire British political class.

He describes the foundation of the EU as a "post war generation's response to the realities of the day". No it was not - it was the German and European anti democratic and anti Anglo Saxon response to their failures of 1918 and 1945. The European Economic Community (and its Charlemagne prize given to those who have done most to "build it") was founded by rather too many Nazis for anyone's comfort. Germany had already started the process of undoing the Treaties of Versailles, Potsdam and Yalta with its friends in the corporatist French political class by founding the 1951 Coal and Steel Community. This was an EXACT REPRISE of what they did after the First World War in 1921, thus laying the foundation stone of Hitler's "integrated Europe" of 1941 and the European Union of today.

David Cameron condemns an EU which "debates the future of 500 million people behind closed doors". But is he not aware that the entire edifice (to which he is still devoted) was constructed in the 1950s "behind closed doors"? According to the US ambassador to Germany at the time, George McGhee (my father's tutor at Oxford as it happens) it was the secretive meetings of the Bilderberg Group which "brought the European Union into being".

It was also the Conservative Government under Edward Heath which concealed from the British public for 30 years the report which it had itself commissioned from Lord Kilmuir and which condemned the betrayal of constitutional freedom which Heath was about to commit. No wonder it was suppressed. Continuing that arrogance and deceit, it has recently been revealed by the MEP Ashley Mote that there are 3,500 secret committees "advising" the European Union - membership of which is even hidden from MEPs. Secrecy is the very heart of the EU and it was founded not with the approval of all but by concealing the intentions of the few - the supranational corporatist pseudo elite which founded it and by whose imperial and anti-democratic methods it is run.

David Cameron's "new realities" today include the "countries previously locked out of freedom" by which he means those (briefly free and democratic) countries which in 1989 left the soviet communist yoke and a few years later had their constitutions destroyed by the European Union. Indeed most of their constitutions were overturned even before they joined the EU as the European Commission forced hundreds of thousands of regulations into their legal systems. Indeed it is a tribute to the topsy turvy world of the British political class that those countries for whom we went to war in 1939 (Poland and Czechoslovakia) today are the most vociferous in their rejectuion of the EU. And it is the British Conservative Party which has spurned them in favour of the rampant imperial Franco German Euro-State.

Mr Cameron claims in his article that he "and Britain" want "a Europe of nation states" and yet he despises and attacks the one party in Britain (UKIP) which unambiguously has that as its central aim. He claims that Britain can lead Europe and yet points to Europe's failures (massive burdens on industry, the failed agricultural policy, growing carbon emissions, centralising power) - all catastrophic failures of policy from which no British government has ever been able to divert it.

No, Mr Cameron. The EU does not "have flaws". It is one massive flaw. To that extent it is like the Tory Party under your leadership. Europe must rid itself of the European Union as surely as the Conservative Party must rid itself of you. It is sometime possible for leaders of political parties to reform, renege and adopt the policies they should have embraced in the first place. But in the case of David Cameron he has gone so far and been so dismissive of everything that his own party members stand for that no one would believe it if he recanted. He must go - for the sake of his party, his country and the peoples of Europe! These are dangerous times. Those who forget history cannot be allowed to force the rest of us to relive it!
