Britain will be forced by Brussels

“Britain will be forced by Brussels to accept Mediterranean refugees.” 

Report in the paper today. 

And there’s actually nothing our government can do because on 21 November 2014, immigration and border control was just one of many policy areas that was moved from “unanimity” to “QMV” (Qualified Majority Voting) a rather important change that our politicians and mainstream media didn’t feel it worth mentioning during the election.  

Here’s what happened - In the EU, the Council of Ministers is supposed to make a lot of the key decisions about the main legislation to be passed by the EU. 

In the Treaty of Nice, many of the areas where the EU wished to legislate required unanimity of the Council of Ministers. 

So Britain had the option of vetoing any legislation it disagreed with.

But, in order to ‘improve the quality of decision making’, the Lisbon Treaty moved a huge number of areas from ‘unanimity’ to “QMV”. 

Moreover, the threshold for QMV was lowered from countries with over 70% of the EU’s population to countries with just 65% of the EU population.

So, Britain can now be outvoted by Merkel and her stooges on virtually any EU decision.

The areas which moved from ‘unanimity’ to ‘QMV’ are all of these:

So, on 21 November 2014 we said goodbye to the UK as an independent country, because after 21 November 2014, Britain was no longer be able to block any legislation which was against our national interests. 

No wonder Cameron, Miliband, Clegg and all their self-serving sycophants in the mainstream media never mentioned 21 November 2014. 

After all, if we plebs had understood how our quisling leaders were handing over control of our country to Germany, more of us might have supported UKIP.
