Indeed, I wonder if
the Albanian people are now convinced that Britain's Foreign Office
is full of Norman Wisdom characters, lovable chumps whose generosity
and good-heartedness make them easily gulled into accepting all
sorts of bad advice.
HOW ELSE COULD THEY EXPLAIN
THEIR GOOD FORTUNE IN BEING ON THE RECEIVING END OF A
£2 BILLION
BALKAN BONANZA
Many British people will ask
WHY,
if we have bullion to spare, it isn't being
spent on UK schools and hospitals rather than on ALBANIA and
MONTENEGRO.
But what makes this expenditure
particularly difficult to defend is the fact that we are not just
paying to help Albanians Montenegrins in their own country.
WE ARE
ACTUALLY PAYING TO GIVE THE PEOPLE OF ALBANIA AND MONTENEGRO ACCESS
TO UK'S PUBLIC SERVICES.
EU citizens enjoy the right to
live and work in any member state - it's a freedom the EU's
ELITES consider essential to the working of their
union. We saw in the Prime Minister's recent attempts to
RENEGOTIATE OUR EU
MEMBERSHIP
the absolute determination of other EU leaders to
PROTECT
THIS RIGHT.
But while it suits the EU
establishment to allow so many millions to move to the UK that
freedom for others means
PROBLEMS FOR THEIR OWN
CITIZENS.
What's interesting is that it has been thinkers
on the Left-people
whose whole lives have been devoted to
supporting the
MOST DISADVANTAGED IN OUR
SOCIETY
-who have been ringing the alarm
bell this week about the [dire] consequences of
UNFETTERED FREE MOVEMENT.
The
Labour MP Frank Field spelled out the
PROBLEM
with
great clarity in a speech on Tuesday, when he said:
'Our
open-door policy, which began under Tony Bliar, has pushed down
wages
AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LABOUR
MARKET.
[We are astonished at the
unapparent concern of the main labour unions who appear to be
ignoring the plight of many of their members and others in society
in order to be members of the EU's Collectivist with its destructive
polices ..]'
