Cameron adds EU referendum to Tory manifesto

Cameron: The EU's Baby

David Cameron announced today that the Conservative manifesto for the next election will contain a promise to hold a referendum on European Union membership. Yes, the much publicised promise is no more than a promise that the Tory manifesto will have some sort of referendum involving EU membership.

The pro-EU lobby has turned this tawdry announcement into a media circus. One thing that all pro-EU interests, from Cameron to Merkel, can agree on is that they do not want UKIP to win many seats at the next election or encourage Tories to defect to UKIP. To stop UKIP the entire media circus, Obama and any pro-EU friends have been brought together to help Cameron get maximum publicity for an election pledge.

Are the British happy that the entire EU Establishment, the Labour, Tory and Lib Dem parties and the media have all lined up against them? The majority of British people would vote to leave the EU but they are being bullied and forced to stay in. The sheer power of the EU Establishment is terrifying. We must leave the EU.

What of Cameron's promise? Firstly Cameron is unlikely to win the next election, secondly the Tories break their election pledges - on immigration for example, and lastly his "promise" allows him to make up any type of referendum question. Anyone who is fooled by this manoeuvre must be weak in the head.

The Falklands have always been Argentine - Las Malvinas son Argentinas

"The Falklands have always been Argentine" is taught to every Argentine child as a matter of faith. What was Argentina during the time when it "always" possessed Las Malvinas? In this article I will trace the history of Argentina in the context of its physical and political relationship with "Las Malvinas", the Falkland Islands. The Argentine claim to the Falkland Islands dates from a brief episode in 1831-32 so it is like Canada claiming the USA despite two centuries of separate development. This might sound like ancient history but Argentina has gone to war for this ancient claim so the following article is well worth reading. For a summary of the legal case see: Las Malvinas: The Legal Case Argentina traces its origins to Spanish South America when it was part of the Viceroyalty of the Rio del Plata. The Falklands lay off the Viceroyalty of Peru, controlled by the Captain General of Chile. In 1810 the Falklands were far from the geographical b...

Do Muslim women want to wear the Burka (Burqua)?

Do all islamic women want to wear burka? Can a woman's freedom to wear what she wants oppress other women? Are western feminists aiding a cult that is dedicated to the destruction of feminism? I hope to answer these questions in this article. I would much appreciate any comments you might have if you disagree with the article, especially if you have a feminist viewpoint. Here is a description of the problems of wearing burka by a woman of Asian origin: "Of course, many veiled Muslim women argue that, far from being forced to wear burkas by ruthless husbands, they do so out of choice. And I have to take them at their word. But it is also very apparent that many women are forced behind the veil. A number of them have turned up at my door seeking refuge from their fathers, mothers, brothers and in-laws - men brain-washed by religious leaders who use physical and mental abuse to compel the girls to cover up. It started with the headscarf, then went to th...

The Roots of New Labour

This article was written in 2009 but is still useful to understand the motivation behind New Labour - from the global financial crisis through the over-regulated, surveillance society to the break up of the UK into nationalities. The past lives of Labour Ministers have long been sanitised and many biographies that include their shady communist and Marxist pasts are inaccessible or removed from the net. The truth about these guys is similar to discovering that leading Tories were members of the Nazi Party. If you are a British voter and do not think that this is important then I despair for British politics. Had these people taken jobs in industry their past might be forgotten and forgiven but they continued in left wing politics and even today boast of being "Stalinist" or International Socialist (or in Blair's case, Trotskyist ). Peter Mandelson (first Secretary of State and Labour Supremo): "Mr Mandelson was born into a Labour family - his grandfather wa...
