Calved from
necessity after 1945 the Common market was officially transformed at Maastricht
in 1993. For the 23 years since, this European Union, this controversial
institution carved out a deceptive mission to manage “Art of Superstate.” Now, it is finally under the spotlight of
accountability. The question being put to the British citizens is do we accept or
reject this deception and its entire works.
The debate
is so close; none can make a sure call for the outcome.

The result
of the British referendum will offer the UK two choices; a courageous path to a
Global role; or to be locked into the EU’s plan for Superstate with a divided populace
in a divided Europe, steamrolling towards further confrontation over the nature
of its flawed character.
For the Brussels
Federalists, it now matters little how the vote is cast. Either way there will
never be a meaningful trust towards the EU machine after this referendum. – Art of Superstate- is Finished.
This era,
when a group of faceless unelected and self-serving Federalists and their
technocrat servants wallow in their dream of instructing hundreds of millions
on how to run their affairs, is Over.
After this
vote - regardless of the outcome -the tone and atmosphere in the corridors of
the Commission’s Berlaymont building in Brussels-will (and rightly so) - be one
of despondent self pity at its failure to pressure and coerce Europe into a
federal state.
History will
point out that no project of such magnitude can succeed without proper consultation
with the people and their willing support.
Of course,
without Britain, the EU will struggle on for a while; maybe into the next
financial crisis, when the Euro buckles and is deserted. Maybe the closeness of the vote will set off
a change reaction across Europe. Maybe there will be another attempt to ignore
the people and carry on with the Federalists plans. Maybe –maybe –maybe!
One truth is
evident- In ignoring the value of Freedom
and Democracy cherished by those who
have won and kept it safe through thick and thin -the EU was always
destined to fail.
In gazing
through the Looking Glass - painting a picture of the future, I see a European
Union struck down by the folly and arrogance of its own character. This folly
is its inability to reform or respond to citizens concerns.
Twenty-first
century UK has modern leadership roles, one of which is to check dangerous moves by those
who would put themselves above the will of the people.
The EU has pursued its objectives to dilute plebiscite rights and opinions in favour of an unproven ideology.

The European
Union project is widely considered a threat to freedom and democracy. And so as I prepare to vote Leave I think of these two quotes about
safeguarding democracy over the past centuries.
“The
condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which
condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime, and
the punishment of his guilt.” - John Philpot Curran Irish lawyer and politician
- Speech July 10, 1790, Dublin.
“Freedom is
fragile and must be protected. To sacrifice it, even as a temporary measure, is
to betray it.” - Germaine Greer, Feminist activist - “The Female Eunuch” October
1970 London.
