GOVERNMENT WITHOUT CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED IS TYRANNY: WELCOME TO THE EUSSR

VIA GOV - protest within the EU parliament that you've probably read nothing about:



RTWT. The Old Media in Europe is worse than it is here, according to Bruce Bawer, and this is why this protect has gone unreported. It's like the good news from Iraq, and the reports from scientists who DON'T agree with Al Gore: since it does against their leftist agenda, they just don't report it.

If the EU bureaucrats thought the member states could win a referendum, then they would be sure to recommend that each have one.

They know that they would lose, and so they don;t want any member states to have one.

That's why they have gone the "treaty" route, and signed off on what is called "The Lisbon Treaty."

Only Ireland is going to have a referendum.

The rest of Europe will just be told it's a done deal.

The Lisbon Treaty reduces each nation's sovereignty over its own affairs and makes each nation - and the citizens of each nation - more subject to laws they have never voted on - and can't.

This is not democratic. It is tyrannical.

Between this burgeoning statism and the attacks by jihadism and encroaching dhimmitude, I feel I Europe will not survive as a Western democratic continent, but will come to more resemble Turkey or Algeria.

Pity.
