Frank Field MP asks-When will Cameron play the EU card?

[Daily Telegraph-July 27, 2007]

THE EU leaders attempt to foist a new constitution on their respective electorates offers both

Gordon Brown and David Cameron

their real chance to impose their image on the politics of the post-Blair era.

BOTH LEADERS HAVE SO FAR STUMBLED.

There are two central issues the Prime Minister has to face and he shows that he is fully aware of BOTH

THE FIRST is the degree to which this new treaty/constitution transfers even greater sovereignty to the

EUROPEAN UNION.

THE SECOND is the degree to which his stance on the constitution reinforces the image he is anxious to portray as a great decentraliser of

POLITICAL POWER.

The sovereignty issue is quite clear cut. It is not simply a question of

90 or 95 per cent

of the treaty being identical to the

[NEW EU] CONSTITUTION

REJECTED

by the

French and Dutch voters.

Nor is it simply a question of accepting the assertion by the

Spanish Foreign Minister

Miguel Angel Moratinos, that it is the wrapping

THAT HAS BEEN CHANGED

NOT

THE CONTENT.

Sovereignty is to be transferred in the most fundamental way.

UNDER the TREATY the EU will assume LEGAL PERSONALITY

[AS THE EU BECOMES A STATE SO ENGLAND WILL LOSE HER NATIONHOOD.]

As a consequence it will be the

EUROPEAN UNION

and NOT the MEMBER STATES, that will sign

INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS

FOREIGN POLICY

DEFENCE

CRIME

AND

JUDICIAL MATTERS.

The European Union

will begin to take on the appearance of a separate country in all

BUT NAME.

The outward visible sign of the fundamental change will be the appointment of a

EUROPEAN FOREIGN MINISTER

speaking on behalf of what were once

MEMBER STATES.

[Have you ever heard of an

INDEPENDENT NATION STATE not having its own

FOREIGN MINISTER.]

It is true that in the first instance the

EUROPEAN FOREIGN SECRETARY

will be given a different

TITLE

But titles, to quote the

Spanish Foreign Minister

again, will be part of the wrapping. This decisive shift in power will all too quickly be followed by the

EUROPEAN UNION

TAKING

BRITAIN'S SEAT

AT THE

UN SECURITY COUNCIL.

[How have the once mighty fallen?]

The polls show that an overwhelming majority of the

PUBLIC

are sceptical about the

TREATY

and are waiting to have their say on whether

BRITAIN'S IDENTITY

should be changed in this

FUNDAMENTAL WAY

[The foundation of the Ancient English Constitution]

Here is the second difficulty for Prime Minister Brown about which he is also too well aware.

Those statements by the previous Cabinet Secretary , Lord Turnbull, that the Prime Minister-elect, as he then was, had Stalinistic tendencies have clearly hit home.

Much of the new mood music of the past four weeks has been that, far from being Stalinist, the new Prime Minister is a pluralist, almost to the point of fanaticism, in his wish to delegate authority away from the centre.

So far the most eye-catching initiative on this front has been to cast the

CHURCH OF ENGLAND

adrift. No 10 wishes to divest itself of having any say whatsoever in the appointment of Anglican Bishops. And while such a move might be welcoming among C of E activists, I cannot believe that the voters will buy this meagre package as a substitute for being denied a direct say

ON THE FUTURE OF OUR COUNTRY.

That the Prime Minister has been under little pressure on this front owes practically everything to the stumbling response of the [so-called]

OPPOSITION

who do not seem to appreciate that here, at least, is an issue on which it can create the political weather. And while David Cameron has found some of the right words to denounce the

TREATY

he has

NOT SERIOUSLY

ENGAGED THE PRIME MINISTER

ON THIS ISSUE

[Well as we have said on many occasions since the leadership election of David Cameron we considered that he was a cloned version of Tony Blair a Pro-EU fanatic and though he has made some feeble utterances recently for a

REFERENDUM

[telegraph.co.uk/eureferendum]

he has not pushed home this matter with energy and purpose. We identified him early on as a possible Bilderberger - as is Kenneth Clarke and no doubt others in his party. We have the LibDem politician and once dictator of KOSOVO Paddy Ashdown who admitted he was a member a number of years ago.]

The POLITICS of the TREATY would be TRANSFORMED if DAVID CAMERON committed his PARTY unequivocally to the following stance.

The Prime Minister keeps teasing him with the possibility of an election this year. Cameron's response should be to snatch up the gauntlet by declaring that, if an election was held during this year or next, he would commit a Cameron Government to

HOLDING A REFERENDUM ON THE TREATY.

[telegraph.co.uk/eureferendum]

[possibly Mr Brown knows that Mr Cameron is a closet European who finds himself with a dilemma .He wants to win the forthcoming election but he appears unwilling or possibly unable to act as he would wish as it might prejudice his future ambitions in EUROPE?]

As the parliament can run to 2010 it would be unrealistic not to time-limit such a pledge. But the

EUROPEAN ELECTIONS

if early 2009 offer a clear cut-off point. At that point the election to the

EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT

would itself become a

REFERENDUM.

[telegraph.co.uk/eureferendum]

The election results were not good for the governing party last time. They would be truly horrendous if Labour went into those

EUROPEAN ELECTIONS

denying a direct say on the

TREATY

-that was being

PROMISED BY THE OPPOSITION.[?]

Gordon Brown would never let the scenario develop. Nor would he call an election with the Tories giving a

REFERENDUM

[telegraph.co.uk/eureferendum]

pledge not equalled by one from the governing party. Either the election in the foreseeable future would be off, or a pledge made. And Cameron would be seen to be making the political weather.

The most likely scenario in the circumstances would be that Gordon Brown rediscovered the sceptical attitude to the

EUROPEAN PROJECT

that was so pronounced when Tony Blair was Prime Minister. Some of us believe that all too much of that scepticism was based on the fact that

BLAIR was so PRO-EUROPE

Again the referendum pledge

WOULD SMOKE THE PRIME MINISTER OUT.

Whatever the outcome the

OPPOSITION

would show that it can influence events -the most any

OPPOSITION

can achieve. And those people who put

LOVE OF COUNTRY ABOVE PARTY LOYALTY

WOULD BE WELL SATISFIED.

The Prime Minister's response has been to hide the issues so far as possible.

THIS IS EXPECTED

BUT why is David Cameron so reluctant to show his

REFERENDUM

[telegraph.co.uk/eureferendum]

card in the long game of political poker with the PM, to which his position inevitably commits him?

[Well we have given our considered opinion above on the present reluctance of Mr Nice Guy Dave to speak-up boldly and persistently on the importance of a

REFERENDUM

[telegraph.co.uk/eureferendum]

which a great majority of the loyal subjects demand particularly as such a promise to hold a

REFERENDUM

[telegraph.co.uk/eureferendum]

-is at present being withheld by the same

GOVERNMENT WHO AT PRESENT REFUSE TO HONOUR THEIR PREVIOUS UNDERTAKING TO ALLOW A REFERENDUM TO TAKE PLACE

Details from petition creator

With the signing of the Maastricht Treaty the people of Britain were given

DUAL CITIZENSHIP

-both

EUROPEAN and BRITISH

The extra tier of citizenship was thrust upon the people without their consent -and in many cases knowledge.

The PEOPLE of GREAT BRITAIN should be allowed the option of opting out of the EUROPEAN CITIZENSHIP if they so wish. The GOVERNMENT will then be able to provide those who have opted out with

BRITISH DOCUMENTATION

-only such as British (not EU) passports, driving licences and other national documents.

EU laws will also NOT APPLY to those who
