What Have We Done? The surrender of our democracy to the EU, by David G Green
Since
joining the European Economic Community in 1973, we have steadily lost the power
to govern ourselves. Here Civitas director David Green describes the essential
qualities of the free, open and democratic system which evolved over 1,000
years. Under our constitution the fact that the government can be removed
immediately by either the Commons or the Crown changes its behaviour. EU
officials have been handed powers by parliament at a time when the
constitutional importance of being able to oust the government has been
forgotten. Civitas.
