European Slavery – It’s your choice
11-May-04, Windsor Observer.

"When speaking with residents in Harmon's Water and Martins Heron last Saturday, I had something confirmed.

People seem happier when able to make their own choices in life.

When free to choose your education, career, home and leisure activities, you appreciate them more.

So I’m angry that LibDems and this Government control us like feeble-minded idiots. They arrogantly lecture us on what we ‘should’ do, as if they somehow knew better.

They siphon off ever more of our hard-earned money in local, national and European taxes, leaving us unable to choose how we spend for ourselves.

And now they want to hand over control of Britain to a new European Union. If we sign the EU constitution we can no longer choose our own laws in so many areas.

There’s a clear choice at the European elections.

Vote Labour or LibDem, to voluntarily enslave yourself and your country even further.

Or vote Conservative, to retain your freedom and promote a flexible Britain – able to control and alter its destiny within the existing European Union.

I want us to control our lives, not a remote group of overpaid politicians and unelected bureaucrats seeking more power for themselves.

Of course, you might just stay at home.

European slavery - It’s your choice."
