"Euro Extremism", Indeed

The Marxist dynast and general simpleton who currently pretends to be Foreign Secretary describes as "Euro extremism" the call for a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. He is right. But not for the reason, if any, that he has in his mind, if any.

If David Cameron really were against the Lisbon Treaty, then he would have put down Second and Third Reading Amendments rejecting it because of its content, without mentioning a referendum. And he would now be promising not to ratify it, again without any need of a referendum. We all know why he isn’t. He wants to hand for the decision to the BBC during the month leading up to a referendum, thereby guaranteeing a Yes vote. The party of the Treaty of Rome, of Thatcher’s Single European Act and of the Maastricht Treaty has not changed one bit. It never will. It can’t. He is indeed a "Euro extremists".

As, for that matter, is anyone who wishes to subject us to the legislative will, but in the Council of Ministers and in the European Parliament, of Stalinists, Trotskyists, neo-Fascists, neo-Nazis, members of Eastern Europe’s kleptomaniac nomenklatura (among other neocon crazies), people who believe the Provisional Army Council to be the sovereign body throughout Ireland. Soon to be joined by Turkish Islamists, Turkish ultra-nationalists, and Marxist Kurdish separatists. Ted Heath was a Euro extremist. Margaret Thatcher was a Euro extremist. John Major was a Euro extremist. Tony Blair was a Euro extremist. David Cameron is a Euro extremist.

Speaking of Stalinists, and not just the House of Miliband, Charles Clarke has stirred from his slumbers today, to demand that Gordon Brown resign. Clarke comes from the old Soviet fellow-travelling faction that was nominally within the Labour Party, and which controlled the NUS when he was President. He has never recanted. Not just in Brussels and Strasbourg are we subject to such people.
