Signing of the Lisbon Treaty – official ceremony
~~~ *** ~~~
[Please read Part 1 here!]
Warren Buffet, the multi-billionaire, put his finger on it when he said: “In effect, our country has been behaving like an extraordinarily rich family that possesses an immense farm. In order to consume 4 percent more than we produce — that’s the trade deficit — we have, day by day, been both selling pieces of the farm and increasing the mortgage on what we still own.”
Later, I began to reflect once again on the Lisbon Treaty. It’s another of those ‘things’ that few ever remember to talk about. Certainly, our politicians during this election time are not giving the subject much airtime. I wonder why not?
PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW, LEAVERS AND REMAINERS ….
“What will actually happen if we stay in the EU” is a question no Remainer will ever answer but here it is – warts and all. Check it out if you wish.
There you will read – a historical fact, yet hardly anyone is aware of it – that the EU has been one political-economic unit, that is, one country, since the acceptance of the Lisbon Treaty at the end of year 2007. The Lisbon Treaty is the very same as the former EU Constitution. Only the façade elements – the word “constitution”, the flag and the anthem – are omitted from the text but in practice the very content of the EU Constitution itself is retained and implemented, the flag is used and the anthem is played on a regular basis. By the EU national leaders signing one federal constitution in 2007, the affected countries actually merged into one federal union governed by a superstate, which might be called “USE”. The main constitutional elements of the Lisbon Treaty:
- Abolishes the borders among the EU-states – establishes one common outside border for EU.
- Establishes the governmental functions, responsibilities and powers of the EU supranational state above the authority of Nation States.
- Provides for a gradual transfer of the legislative powers of the members states to the EU.
- Stipulates precedence of the federal law over state-law in case of conflict between the two.
- Provides for EU-military (2012 – 022), EU-tax and a secret agency to protect the EU-authorities.
- It is an anti-democratic constitution placing the unelected European Commission on the top of the decision-making hierarchy, directing the activity of the European Parliament.
- Its content is designed to protect the rights of private property against human rights, it forecasts to abolish all welfare benefits and to transfer via privatisation all values and resources of Europe into the ownership of the protected super-rich.
- It is also an Enabling Treaty which means the EU can change anything in it without referring back to any elected body. It bypasses every democratic principle.
This is the historical relevance and importance of this fact: The Lisbon Treaty is an Enabling Act. It is virtually a clone of Hitler’s 1933 Enabling Act. That is, any of the clauses in it can be changed, added to, or deleted by unknown bureaucrats at any time without the knowledge of any elected person.
The EU uses what is known as the Salami principle – take very thin slices at a time so its loss is not noticed but eventually they gain the whole salami. When the leaders of the EU-countries signed the Lisbon Treaty – either willingly or upon deceit and intimidation – they gave up the national sovereignty of their countries.
This is both the present and the future that the young people of today think was stolen from them? They should be on their knees thanking the nation for saving them from being turned into Orwellian automatons!
Forget ‘Deals – No Deals’ it’s time for Remainers and Brexiteers to unite and see what’s coming.
Now that you know all this, I have a new question for you: To whom will you give your vote and consent next month? Think about it – between now and December 12th! It is important.
This is no time to box clever at the ballot box. Now is the time for truth because the truth can set us free.
Just remember – George Soros has got 25% of the EU in his pocket – you want to do anything with the EU?
You go through George Soros.
Vote TBP and you beat both the EU AND George Soros.
Wake, wakes!
In 1945, the British and Commonwealth, with the USA and those Europeans who had escaped to this Nation, thought they had defeated Hitler’s Nazi Germany. – One RAF Senior NCO, ( My Dad ), described the state of German towns and cities, as having been thoroughly smashed to bits, and Bomber Command was somewhat ostracised for doing such a total job ! As a very young child I remember a German POW digging our garden to earn a little money as he waited in the hope of repatriation to his homeland ! ….. Yes, the Nazis had been defeated, and had signed the act of Unconditional Surrender to all of us, and to the Soviets as well, and denazification of people was well under way. My Dad after his demob from the RAF, bored us all rigid with war stories for many years ! – One item was locked away and never told to his parents or his wife, and only came tumbling, tearfully out to me at the 50 year anniversary of D Day. – He had been detailed to Belson Camp as a possible witness to the War Trials, within the first 24 hours of the Camp’s liberation. – What he witnessed, to use his own words, was an assault upon every human sense he possessed, and so he locked it away in his mind for half a century !
OK, now there are no large numbers of Nazis today, but there is the memory of what Hitler’s united Europe could have been, and it is utter fact that the Hitler Dream has not disappeared ! It is still in the minds of many, and the values of Democracy find no home within today’s EU. – there is a talking shop that is called the European Parliament, but if truly understood, it is no Parliament at all, merely a fop to keep Democrats happy enough to go along with it ! ….. The Common Market or EEC was originally a moderately good idea. – Common trading with each other, rather than shooting and bombing was a fine idea, but then it went off script, and quite probably, that was always the intention from certain individuals ! ….. The mood of 1939 was totally for Chamberlain’s peace at any price, and the folks then remind me of the ‘Remain’ folk of today. – When Hitler went into Poland, it was clear that Chamberlain’s bit of paper that was signed by Hitler, was a nonsense ! – Churchill arrived, and the people got in step with the new PM. – The rest is history ! ….. I only state these personal and National facts, in the hope of urging people to take on board the expensive lessons that this Nation has learnt the hard way. A friendly disposition to others, can only work if the others are friendly as well. – Brexit NOW !
Mike The real enemy is within! No European leader forced Britain to join the European project to create a European superstate. No European political body forced Heath, Thatcher, Major, Blair and Brown to transfer powers to an undemocratic EU. It is the British political establishment, academia, public sector, corporations, charities, and NGOs who have sought to hand the sovereignty of these Isles to the EU.
Heath got £35k tax free for signing up to the dictatorship. Not an inconsiderable amount back then. Some might call this corruption.
Jake – correct. And the answer is still in our own hands. The only person who has remained steadfast, unbending, positive, practical and determined in the face of screaming mobs and paid-up ‘demonstrators’ has been Nigel.
There is no other reasonable practical choice if we require even a modicum of power to sway the HofC votes in the offing – The Brexit Party of course. (Yes, I am a UKIP Member!)
Colin,
Forget about rational and reasoned debate with any on left, they can’t even support their own positions. They resort to name calling and mud-slinging, because that the only thing they CAN do. One can only reason with the reasonable. They are fanatics, denying facts and the reality of the situation around them. All totalitarian regimes corrupt the young and naive, history shows this, in order to create a subservient, obedient underclass.
I have been in a similar situation myself while at a friends dinner party. There were two Liberal Remainer types attending too. Leaving the EU came up, and I shot down all their remain arguments, they simply had no answer. The best part was when one of the remainers said, ‘Being in EU protects the UK car industry.’ I quickly replied, ‘Was this the same UK car industry which shut a Ford van factory in Southampton, inside the EU, and moved it to Turkey with and EU grant, to outside the EU.’
Annoyed he replied, ‘Yes but Turkey has a trade deal.’ I replied, ‘Are you saying the UK would not be able to get a trade deal too?’. At that he shut up, along with his tag team partner. My biggest take from this was that I found their ignorance of the EU breathtaking, yet they still flag wave this vile organisation.
Ignorance is bliss eh?
Ignorance and blind acceptance are the enemies of democracy.
Brilliant article Michael, truth though is not a concept familiar to many of today’s citizens of the what was once the U.K, many would not recognise truth or reality if they fell over it, and even then would ‘run, hide and tell’ somebody else to do something, Lisbon treaty what’s that? you are talking rubbish, was the answer my friend got when he pointed the facts out to some people the other day.
Colin,
Much of the higher echelons of the UK Establishment embraced the Nazi regime in the 1930’s, a simple google search will display the pictures…
Did you know that Ted Heath was invited to, and attended, the Nuremberg Rally in the 1930’s, and was invited by the German Embassy in London? Heath sat close to Hitler’s own box and after the rally attended a party, and met Goebbels and Himmler. Its in his book ‘Travels’.
Colin – an excellent assessment backed up by facts.
Like it or not – the fact is that most European countries simply surrendered to the Nazis –
Much the same (as I think you suggest) is happening today.
We are simply seeing a re-run of the 1930’s.
Our ONLY hope, at present, is TBP.
UKIP members are fighting back against the evil nec.
