That's an interesting point - unfortunately my Google-Fu is weak 
Any references to this increase in expenditure due to the EU (or whatever they called it then) in 1973 please? |

The EU has been a disaster for the UK. I cant think of anything except the Human Rights Court ( which is powerless to stop Jackboot Jacqui as we have now found ) that the EU has done for the UK ?
The UK education and housing has been overwhelmed by the free movement of labour within the EU. Leading ultimately to mass unemployment in Germany and the UK - where all the workforces of the poorer countries have moved into pushing out the local populations who are lesser skilled or not willing to work for such poor pay.
UKIP therefore have taken this anger - which is real in working class areas - and the working classes ( or non working ) see UKIP as the only party representing their view. I can see that - it is not a matter of ideology. It is because the three main parties are upper middle class and disconnected from them.
I can see our society falling apart because the implications of the last 10 years of Labour and EU mismanagement are mass unemployment - whole estates without work - on a scale even bigger than that of the 1980s when we hit the recession back then.
UKIP have many distasteful views for those of us with "liberal" values - but they are a party that are standing up for the millions who are losing their jobs. Therefore they could suprise everyone and overtake the Conservatives if this expenses row continues.......now that would be a turn up and it has been created by the worst Government this country has seen in its history - and its worst ever PM. |

Not only has he basically destroyed the Labour Party and possibly changed politics in the UK for the worse for all time, the evil he helped unleash along with George Bush will have untold repercusions.
Veritas, I really believe that the ZanuLabor project was all about imprinting their vile culture upon the country in the shortest space of time possible.
I can imagine Tony Blair telling Brown back in 97 'Listen Gordon, we've got to create an artificial boom long enough for us to wreck British society. If you can deliver it for a decade or so we can persuade the idiots to re-elect us a couple of times. That should give us enough time to systematically destroy every worthwhile British institution and cultural value before everything crashes and the fools finally realise they have been hoodwinked and kick us out'.
The conservatives are now simply New New Labor and the liberal democrats are the new new conservatives. |

I'll happily vote UKIP at the Euro Election. It's my protest against EU membership. People assume that the European Court of Human Rights means that the EU is a betters safeguard of civil liberties but the two are unconnected. The EU is one of the most undemocratic regimes since the USSR. Decisions are made by unelected commisioners, not by the elected MEPs. They impose laws which we cannot oppose.
I don't see UKIP as a genuine option for government, but in the EU election they'll get my vote for sure. |
