I WOULD like to point out that in this country hardly anyone even now is aware of the European Union's nature, of the terrible cost it imposes on us and of the way it has sucked the blood out of our Parliament and our courts, or of its ultimate aims.

To have some idea of how it really works, anyone who may be interested should read The Great Deception by Christopher Booker and Richard North.

Anyone with any claim to understanding the state of this country should read it. This should also include all our political parties.
