Lies on the 1975 referendum leaflet to steal votes.

BRITAIN'S NEW DEAL IN EUROPE

'Her Majesty's Government have decided to recommend to the British people to vote for staying in the Community'

HAROLD WILSON, PRIME MINISTER.

LIE:
As a result of these negotiations the Common Agricultural policy (known as CAP) now works more flexibly to the benefit (?????) of both housewives and farmers in Britain. The special arrangements made for sugar and beef are a good example. (Totally unreformed after 35 years!)

LIE: Our food prices are now much higher than can be bought on world markets - costing around £10 extra to every person, every week, every year! Contrary to the claim.

LIE:
The Minister representing Britain can veto any proposal for a new law or a new tax if he considers it to be against British interests. (Sold out by successive governments.)
LIE:
....putting jobs at risk. This threat has been removed.
LIE: We have also maintained our freedom to pursue our own policies on taxation and on industry. (The known principle of acquis commaunitaire made this one of the worst lies.)
LIE:
Another anxiety expressed about Britain's membership of the Common Market is that Parliament could lose its supremacy, and we would have to obey laws passed by unelected 'faceless bureaucrats' sitting in their headquarters in Brussels. - (Deemed not true. Unbelievable!)
LIE:
.... has not deprived us of our national identity, nor changed our way of life.
LIE: ....No important new policy can be decided in Brussels or anywhere else without the consent of a British Minister. (Check out Lisbon!)
LIE: It is the Council of Ministers, and not the market's officials, who take the important decisions. (DEFINE 'IMPORTANT!')
LIE:
For a time at least, there would be a risk of making unemployment and inflation worse. (By leaving.) First 5 words cunningly give 'deniability'

There is so much more - I hardly know where to begin. With a casual read, the pamphlet seems balanced and reasonable. It is not.
It certainly FOOLED ME at the time!

Considering The Damage To Our Nation Caused By Sky-High Migration, It Must Now Drop To Near Zero. We Are Already The Most Overcrowded Major Nation In The Western World!
