TODAY'S RECIPE - IRISH STEW.

Although we'll probably get away with minimal stewing steak and vegetables, we will however need shed loads of money which we then will have to let simmer for years, not necessarily giving us the perfect result.

Isn't Europe wonderful this time of year? The Union was supposed to guarantee it's members a perfect, comfortable future. People are falling for all the Marxist marketing jargon from the unelected Euro junkies, cosseted in their Brussels' ivory towers; whose powers can give MEPs an increase of 3.7% and it's judges an extra £8000 per annum, as we tighten our belts. On top of this, they are spending billions on embassies around the world with thousands of staff.

We see that the Daily Express has started a campaign to rid us of this encumbrance that is the EU. Let us wish them well. Maybe they have been taking note of some of the suggestions in these postings.


THE END GAME HAS COMMENCED.

HOW ARE THINGS IN GLOCCA MORRA? (Lane/Harburg)

Getting worse by the hour.

It is beyond comprehension, that when the so called 'Celtic Tiger' was roaring away, dimwits who thought that the UK should be a part of the Euro zone could not see, rather like the economy in Britain, that the Irish finances were overheating. What is extraordinary, is the amount of loans dispensed by British banks; where did old fashioned prudence go? We in Britain may want to appear rather like a white knight; we could ask, with what? There is nothing quite like pretending to be well off and successful.

The problem here is what I call 'chasing the debt'. Brussels is now supporting Greece and Ireland, plus the Spanish getting their piece of the action, under the radar, with all the attention at the moment on the Irish.

What on earth is the UK doing consorting with this unelected rabble?



ALTHOUGH I'M NO CELEBRITY: GET ME OUT OF HERE!

A FRAGMENTED UNISON.

The bilge continues to poor from Brussels, apparently ignored by the people who have to foot the bill, the 'great disregarded'. We can probably include most of the good folk of Europe, who are opposed to all this drivel. Unfortunately, we are grumbling about total federalism but doing little to stem the ludicrous onward march by the EU Commission in the name of President Herman Van Rompuy. He is unequivocal in what he considers to be naive, the national sovereignty of member nations.

Firstly let us consider the continued fragmentation of these states, not least Van Rompuy's own country, Belgium; this may well be his approach to extracting his country from this embarrassment. In addition, we have a number of different parliaments in the United Kingdom, plus there is the ongoing running sore in Spain concerning the Basque Separatists.

Watch out for regulations with regard to banking, this is part of a plan to take the square mile into EU control. Our banking system is the major contributor to the UK economy.


BEWARE.

THE CONSISTENCY OF THE BRUSSELS MAFIA.

As the juggernaut, that is the EU Administration, ploughs on regardless, with a plethora of financial anomalies highlighted by The European Court of Auditors for the sixteenth consecutive year. This naturally doesn't seem to concern the EU Commission, all that happens is that they increase the contributions of the givers, the UK being a major one of these.

At what stage do our representatives point out that they will have difficulty getting taxpayer GB to sanction this gross negligence? Trading conditions within the community are about to take a turn for the worse, as the finances of the Republic of Ireland could hit the buffers fairly soon; followed shortly by similar problems in the Iberian peninsular, as Spain and Portugal suffer the same fate. There won't be too much business going on with them, as they will be forced to draw in their horns.



YOU PAYS YOUR MONEY WITHOUT A SAY.

HOW MANY STRAWS TO GO?

Our intrepid Prime Minister gets into the swing of 'smoke and mirrors' politics with his government's latest U turn regarding the voting rights of prisoners; this is to conform with EU Human Rights legislation, something he distinctly said he would oppose when coming to Government.

Such mind boggling changes of direction need to be considered seriously, with a view to a suitable response from the Electorate, whose back must soon bend to breaking point, if a move on behalf of, what seems to be a majority, is not observed as being completely against their will. The word sovereignty is bandied about by MPs as though they are defending it, when the opposite is the case.

The frightening thing about this slavish attitude towards the EU by all parties, which is not backed by the majority of the country judging by what one reads in the press and by hear say, will no doubt see the rise of British Nationalism. It won't be enough just to call them names.
