'Hidden in the secret archives of the Foreign Office for nearly 30 years, only recently has a remarkable document been published — the official account of the negotiations from Britains' entry to the EEC.'Not for nothing was the document hidden, for it reveals that the negotiations were a sham, covering up an abject surrender by the British negotiators. It was written by the head of the British delegation, Sir Con ONeil of the Civil Service, who said that the guiding principle for entry was to accept everything the Community demanded, without alteration. He summed it up as a determination to swallow it whole, and swallow it now'. (Including giving away our National waters.)[It is from "Britain's entry into the European Community" - A Report on the Negotiations of 1970-1972 by Sir Con O'Neil. Publ. Publ. Frank Cass. 2000. See page 40.]
