Ten things the new Constitution Reform 

Lisbon Treaty does for Britain

  1. It establishes a LEGALLY NEW European Union in the form of a supranational European organisation.

  2. It empowers this NEW European Union to act as a State towards other States and its own citizens. (The NEU can make treaties with other states which are binding on ALL the old EU constituent nations.)

  3. It makes us ALL citizens.  (There will be no choice in the matter.)

  4. To hide the enormity of the change, the same name - European Union - is kept.  (And the flag and anthem, but we'll not mention those either...)

  5. It creates a Union Parliament for the Union's new citizens. (We have one of our own, in theory, useless though it may be.)

  6. It creates a Cabinet Government of the new Union.  (Cabinets are so called because they have closed doors.)

  7. It creates a new Union political President.  (A position for which one T. Bliar, Esq; is already fishing.)

  8. It creates a civil rights code for the new Union's citizens.  (Which will over-rule the working one the British already had for centuries.)

  9. It makes national Parliaments subordinate to the new Union. (Say goodbye to British self rule. Mind you, 75% of our law is Made In Brussels anyway.)

 10. It gives the new Union self-empowerment. (The EU will make its own changes to itself. No more messing around quibbling with Treaties, Haw Haw.)

How to Catch Wild Pigs (with apologies)

A Parable for EU Politics

First, lay out some food. The pigs will be extremely suspicious, but eventually their greed will induce them to eat. 

Keep laying out food, then put up a single fence panel. The pigs will again be highly suspicious, but when the fence panel continues to do nothing, they will return to eat. 

Every so often, add a new fence panel. The pigs will gradually lose their suspicion as the fence panels continue to do nothing. They will become used to new panels appearing.

Then you shut the gate...
