The dictatorial screw tightens.




Four MEPs were threatened with arrest today after Belgian police objected to a 100% peaceful protest outside the European Union summit.

Divisional Commander Pierre Vandernissen said he was "acting on instructions from a higher authority" when he confiscated an inflatable bulldozer and threatened to arrest MEPs Nigel Farage, John Whittaker, Derek Clark and Gerard Batten. When questioned why he was doing it, he answered "because I have the power" and refused to say whether or not it was politically motivated. "I don't have to answer you" he said.

"Because I have the power." ?????????
To think there are those who state that the limitless powers of the EU's own Europol should not concern us!
"Acting on a higher authority." Oh, yes?.....I hardly dare ask!
If this is the reaction of an ordinary Belgian Police Officer....
