WE all know that the Greeks are a fun-loving people, so no surprise then
that most of them voted for the fun to be resumed – so long as someone else
picks up the tab. The referendum would have made an ostrich proud – simply bury
your head in the sand.
Is it too much to hope that any further expansion of the EU will now be
off the agenda indefinitely? Is there a chance that the Euro penny will at last
drop with the realisation that the Eurozone pipe dream has become the inevitable
Eurozone nightmare?
The answers to the above are no hope and no chance. Why? Because the EU
is founded on the principle of all-embracing political union stretching from the
Baltic sea to the shining Aegean, this to be achieved by whatever means are
necessary, be they fair or foul. Unfair? Consider the recent ill-considered
attempt to engineer the integration of Ukraine into the EU, or if you like, the
gross deception foisted on us by Edward Heath when he successfully concealed the
federalist intention behind the first EU referendum.
If (oh happy day) Britain votes to leave this shambolic federation, we
will still be ruled by politicians of questionable competence but we will at
least have voted for them all.
