47% OF VOTERS SAY BRITAIN NEEDS TO PULL OUT OF THE EU

                 
NEARLY half of British voters want the country to quit the European Union, a shock opinion poll revealed last night. A YouGov survey found that 47 per cent of adults would vote in favour of the UK withdrawing from the EU if a referendum on the issue were held. Only a third of those quizzed for the poll said they would vote for Britain to remain within the 27-nation group.
              
Last night, Eurosceptics seized on the poll as evidence of growing disenchantment with Britain’s EU membership. Paul Nuttall, chairman of the UK Independence Party, said: “These poll results just tell us what anybody with eyes to see or ears to hear has known for ages, the people want out of the EU. Britain needs a referendum on continued EU membership, not some makeweight promise from the Government. The fact that in every part of the country there is a majority for leaving says it all.”
                 
The YouGov poll showed that a majority of voters aged over 40 want Britain to quit the EU.  
  • 52% of voters aged between 40 and 59 backed withdrawal, and among the over-60s the figure rose to 57%.
  • 63% of Tory voters wanted Britain to quit the EU, with 37% of Labour voters in favour of the move. 
  • 33% of the Lib Dem supporters quizzed said they would vote against EU membership in a referendum.
The poll result was published last night as ministers released details of a proposed new “referendum lock” law which is designed to stop any further power being handed over to Brussels. The aim is to prevent a repeat of the Lisbon Treaty fiasco which saw Gordon Brown give the EU sweeping powers to meddle in UK affairs but last night Euro-sceptics critics were quick to brand the measure “worthless”. Senior Tory backbencher Douglas Carswell said: “This ‘lock’ is worthless and ministers must know it, under the Lisbon Treaty the EU doesn’t need any more treaties to give itself more powers.”
      
   
*************** 
A "shock opinion poll", they say....... what fucking planet are they on?!!!! 
         
People all over Europe want out of the EUSSR and the only ones who refuse to see that are fucking politicians - there are none so blind as those who will not see, and these self-serving cunts are blind a bats! According to this poll a full two thirds of us want out of this New World Order experimental club for the ruling elite and these fuckers know that very well - that's why we have not been given our referendum and the "referendum lock" that they are trying to buy us off with now is pure fucking bollocks, piss and wind! Douglas Carswell has said what we already know that the so-called "lock" is worthless as the Lisbon Treaty is self-amending and that ministers know it.
              
Well here's a bit of news for those ministers - we know it too, you fucking cunts, even though you seem to think we are all thick and easily hoodwinked!
                  
Fuck the fucking fuck off and give us our referendum, you useless twats!
            
CUNTS!

ANTI-EU HELP FROM THE CZECH REPUBLIC

Some of you may remember a while back when I found an article by Peter Oborne in the Daily Mail which informed us that we were going to receive some unexpected help from Germany as they had referred the Lisbon Treaty back to their Constitutional Court. They have still not managed to amend the treaty to their satisfaction and, as we all know, whatever amendments they make in order to keep the sovereign powers that they do not wish to relinquish to the EU will be null and void as soon as the Treaty has been ratified.

Now we are going to get even more help from the Czech Republic as you can see in the following report from The Times. Many thanks to Quiet Man for pointing me in the right direction - he's rather made my day.

Czech Republic 'planning to delay signing Lisbon treaty'



EU leaders are said to be furious that the Czech Republic is planning to delay signing the Lisbon treaty for up to six months even if the Irish vote "yes" in their referendum next month.

The country might even try to delay it until after the British general election campaign when a Tory victory would see the question put to voters by David Cameron.

Nicolas Sarkozy, who helped to draw up the treaty after the French and Dutch voted against its predecessor, the EU Constitution, has warned Prague that it faces "consequences" if it does not swiftly follow an Irish "yes" with its own ratification.

The outburst followed a private warning from Jan Fischer, the Czech caretaker Prime Minister, to his EU counterparts over dinner at their summit in Brussels last Thursday, it has emerged.

Mr Fischer said that Václav Klaus, the country's unpredictable President, was planning to have a group of loyal senators in the Czech Upper House refer the treaty back to the country's constitutional court for a second time, which could delay ratification for between three and six months.

This would mean that the treaty could still be unratified going into the British general election campaign, expected next April or May. Mr Cameron has pledged that, if the document remained a live issue, even though Britain has completed its own ratification, he would call a referendum on it. This prospect horrifies most EU leaders, given the strong vein of Euroscepticism in Britain.

Tensions are already running high among EU leaders over whether the Irish will vote in favour of the treaty on October 2 after a close-run referendum campaign. They are desperate that the momentum of a "yes" is not lost on the eurosceptic Czech and Polish presidents, the final two signatures required for EU ratification.

The treaty further erodes national powers to veto EU decisions, and a Tory government would campaign against it. President Klaus is understood to have told allies that he wants to wait if possible to see if Mr Cameron wins the next election.

Speaking after last Thursday's dinner, Mr Sarkozy said: "I stated clearly that if the Irish say 'yes', there is no question that we will accept to stay in a no-man’s land with a Europe that does not have the institutions to cope with the crisis,” he said.

Asked about what could be done to persuade President Klaus to sign, he added: "It will be necessary to draw the consequences — but those will be the subject of another meeting."

Mr Fischer is acting as caretaker Prime Minister after the Government of Mirek Topolánek fell in the summer and while fresh elections are organised. He has warned privately that he has little control over the country's headstrong President. Speaking to Czech journalists after last week's summit, he admitted: "It is certainly a fact that several government leaders perceive the ratification process in the Czech Republic with a degree of nervousness."

Notice the same old threats from Sarkozy about "consequences" just as the people of Ireland were told if they vote "NO"!! Cameron may yet have to grow a set and give us our referendum as all three parties promised us they would in their 2005 election manifestos - another fucking lie.

President Klaus and the Czech Republic may yet turn the tide on the EU monster and buy us enough time for our own resounding "NO" vote. Then Cameron must ensure that the EU is dead in the water once and for all!

I don't know about you but this is the best news I've read on the subject for some time.
