Victory for Metric Martyrs

Brussels will let us keep our pounds and ounces

by

Benedict Brogan, Colin Fernandez and Paul Sims

[Daily Mail-Tuesday, September 11, 2007]

BRUSSELS will today give up the fight to make Britain drop

PINTS

POUNDS

and

MILES

The right of Britons to use imperial weights and measures will be enshrined in EU law under plans being announced by

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION

[Well! a simpler method is for us to WITHDRAW from the despotic ,corrupt totalitarian police state to call itself

THE UNITED STATES OF EUROPE.

One of our most pro-MEP's the Conservative Mr Philip Bushill-Mathews will be bitterly disappointed as he believed that the British governments were responsible over 100 years ago? He mentioned a Select Committee of the House of Commons back  1862. As far as he was concerned

'Nothing to do with Brussels at all' 

He talked about Britannia

 ' being slow to embrace new rules'

.It is from a book which will haunt him at the next European Election -if there is one?

He condescendingly stated:

'it really is time that we finally gave up our pounds and ounces, just as we gave up the Groat all those years ago - not because of any [EU] Directive but in the common cause of common sense and getting up-to-date.

NEED WE SAY MORE?]

traditional measures will remain legal

''until kingdom come'

the Commissioner responsible for the move told the Daily Mail last night.

The decision was hailed as a

Victory

for the

'Metric Martyrs'

who have refused to accept successive governments attempts to abolish measurements dating back to the

MIDDLE AGES.

BUT

-the 

EUROPEAN COMMISSION

said it had acted merely to

'get the Government out of a hole'

and claimed it never targeted Britain's well-loved imperial system.

[ Well we don't think that that is all that happened. It is more than probable that Gordon Brown has been in touch and explained that the latest attempt to get the ball rolling over a campaign to get the people to sign the various eurosceptic inspired  calls for a REFERENDUM have almost stalled and therefore points to this and asks Brussels to give the British people a sop as an incentive to believe that there is nothing to fear in the NEW TREATY.  Of course the Metric Martyrs particularly the late Steve Thoburn the driving force with his friend fellow market trader Neil Herron had made the issue of such importance with their supporters in the first place and if they had given in there would  have been no reprieve.

It is an object lesson to all eurosceptics that ACTION and not just WORDS that makes a DIFFERENCE.]

*

A  Directive published today will be put to the

Council of Ministers

to be approved by EU member-states within the next few months.

It will confirm the UK's right to carry on using non-metric measures such as the

PINT

MILE

and

POUNDS and OUNCES

[What a damn check they have to give the impression that they had any right to take away our accustomed

IMPERIAL MEASURES

We feel Mr Francis Fulford of

'England is f****D'

will find the appropriate words for us.]

But shops and traders will have to stick to current rules which require those using Imperial  weights and measures to show their equivalents in metric as well.

British governments have repeatedly asked for delays in implementing the switch to metric agreed by the EU nearly 30 years ago

[Well as we all know ALL British governments have given away the

'Rights  and Liberties'

of the people and in the case of Imperial weights and Measures they continued to put off the evil day for as long as possible which is their tactic since we were all conned into a supposed

'Common Market'  EEC in 1972.

As many now know Edward Heath asked his  Lord Chancellor- Lord Kilmuir  prior to the acceptance of the

TREATY OF ROME

for a legal analysis of the treaty as to its affect on the

SOVEREIGNTY of the NATION STATE

and he wrote a letter which clearly stated that the

SOVEREIGNTY

 would be at risk.]

Mr Philip Bushill-Matthews further says in his book

'Some have gone so far as to say that they were lied to by Edward Heath back in the 70's as part of a

 GREAT DECEPTION'

They thought they had voted for

FREE TRADE

-for a

'Common Market'

'They could not be more wrong'

says Mr Philip Bushill-Matthews.

[Well! -the evidence is against him  as indicated above and only a few years ago Edward Heath himself indicated that

HE HAD LIED.

The current of delay -or derogation- expires in 2009 and it  would have  become illegal for UK shops to display the imperial measurements after January 1,2010 [And to remind our viewers that 2010 is as long as Gordon Brown has got if he decides he will not chance a

GENERAL ELECTION

as his STUBBORNNESS on not keeping his PARTY'S PROMISE of a REFERENDUM would ensure that his TERM of GOVERNMENT would END]

*

But a consultation by the

COMMISSION

found that the UK could carry on using imperial measures without harming the

SINGLE MARKET

which governs trade across the 27-member bloc

Gunther Verheugen, the Commissioner for the Single Market, told the Mail he was acting to end the 'myths' that 'the EU was banning the pint and that this was part of a wider plot against Britishness.

[Well! the Commissioner must be surprising ignorant to think that it was only the banning of the pint which figured with millions of Britons who

WANT OUT OF THE EU

as the so-called NEW TREATY which was rejected by the French and Dutch in 2005 is still in existence and it will affect every part of our subjects lives as the so-called 'red lines' or if you like 'red herrings' have clearly illustrated.

NO! COMMISSIONER -NOT AT ANY PRICE WILL MILLIONS OF OUR ISLAND PEOPLE GIVE UP THEIR SACRED INHERITANCE TO ENTER A SLAVE COLONY IN EUROPE.

We will dispense with the rest of the propaganda from the Brussels spin machine.

Last night , the widow of Steve Thoburn -nicknamed the

METRIC MARTYR

after he was convicted for selling bananas by the pound -demanded he now be pardoned.

 The greengrocer who worked a local market in Sunderland, became a national hero in 2001 when he refused to abandon his old imperial weights in favour of metric measures.

Until his death three years ago from a heart art, the 39-year-oldfather of two fought against the bureaucracy of the

EUROPEAN COMMISSION

and inspired the

Metric Martyrs Movement.

Led by his friend  and fellow market trader, Neil Herron, it continued its work in his name and refused to back down despite the threat of legal action. But his criminal conviction remained.

Now , his widow, Leigh, 33, is calling for his name to be

CLEARED.

Mr Thoburn was prosecuted by Sunderland City Council in 2001 for breaching the

WEIGHTS and MEASURES ACT

after selling bananas by the

POUND

His Imperial scales were confiscated and he was given a six-month conditional discharge.

Mr Thoburn was one of only four shopkeepers ever prosecuted for using

POUNDS  and OUNCES

-an offence which carried fines of up to £5000.

*

[As we have said on a number of occasions lately it is ONLY by ACTION that we will throw off the CURSE of BRUSSELS and be again an island of the FREE. Mr Thoburn was a rare instance of a man of great courage and tenacity would not bent to TYRANNY. Oh! to have thousands of such men combine in our

FIGHT for FREEDOM

We have recently asked for those who wish

TO DO SOMETHING

instead of

TALK

to join our new association of

FRIENDS of ENGLAND

and

take to the streets to press home our determination not to remain a part of the despotic, deceitful, discredited totalitarian police state another day.

Our new PRIME MINISTER has glanced about him and thanked his lucky stars that the Eurosceptic bodies have failed to UNITE with the SPIRIT of RESISTANCE that Steve Thoburn and his associates have shown but which the country at large has ignored.

Nothing is gained without effort and should the NEW TREATY be ratified by your traitorous HOUSE OF COMMONS then that will speak volumes to future generations of a people who just couldn't get their act together

TO SAVE THEIR COUNTRY.]

AS viewers have seen over the past five years at least we have ALWAYS supported every eurosceptic campaign by showing the details on our web-site as still continue to do so. What we question at this late state is the sudden realisation by a number of members of parliament to show that they are concerned that their constituents are offered the REFERENDUM which THEY WERE PROMISED.

We have been on the web-site of

www.iwantareferendum.com

and have observed that though they have clearly shown the matters at issue there is still not representation in all areas of the country.

This sudden concern for the public about such an important

CONSTITUTIONAL

significance-the destruction of a nation state of 1,400 years in the making is typical of

YOUR

HOUSE OF COMMONS

They want history to be kind to them so they leave it to within a few weeks of a decision in the HOUSE to show their concern.

WE ARE NOT AMUSED

as a great Queen of England stated in the 19th century.

It is as far as we can observe

TOO LITTLE!-TOO LATE!

What seems to have been observed that for all intents and purposes

SCOTLAND and WALES

are separate nation states.

SO WHY

is the

REFERENDUM

not taken on national grounds as it is not for those in the other nation states outside

ENGLAND

should have the right to decide the fate of

ENGLAND

as

ENGLAND

should NOT

have the right to decide their fate. 

Obviously , this is a matter which has been deliberately overlooked as it would suit the GOVERNMENT to have the larger numbers of Pro-EU supporters in SCOTLAND and WALES whose politicians are anxiously awaiting the extra funding they will secure in their OWN RIGHT.

WE NEED A MIRACLE as looking at the array of CAMPAIGNS on offer it will need one in order for the general public to understand what in heavens is happening with this fantasia of multitudes of dissected projects.

THEY AS ONE WOULD SAY CANNOT SEE THE WOOD FOR THE TREES

WHAT A WAY TO WIN A WAR?
