    ‘Let’s Unite Europe!’ We Should Echo That Heroic Call! 


    Yes, I know what you’re thinking –  I’ve had a few beers too many, fallen over and banged my head, woken up, red-eyed, seeing stars…?

    ==================

    Not so!

    Unity is not the same as unification.

    Here’s the hero I’m echoing.

    “Liberate the peoples from this Europe!’

    =

    ooo

    That was the inspirational peroration heard by a big crowd in Pontida, a very small town probably as unknown to you as it was to me.

    It’s in Lombardy, Northern Italy, and here’s a picture…

    .

     

    …just so you may remember it, because Matteo Salvini’s words spoken there should echo in the history of Europe.

    All you Eurosceptics in the UK will surely endorse the sentiment Salvini expressed when he roared out his war-cry for the EUSSR elections next year.

    “To win we had to unite Italy, now we will have to unite Europe!”

    =======

    He declared his aim was to create an alliance of “all the free and sovereign movements that want to defend their people and their borders.”

    In other words, a movement that can turn next years election, when those Strasbourg Slugs have to face the voters, into a referendum in which the people in every land would have a starkly clear choice.

    “…a Europe without borders…

    OR

    …a Europe that protects its citizens.”

      You took me by surpriee.
      But yes, I am OK with all you say, and 100% OK with anything Salvini says.

      Salvini ranks up there with God Almighty.

    Just A Europhiliac Guy – Who Spits In Ulster’s Face! 


    Good to hear the DUP say that –

     “We don’t like talking about red lines – but one key element of what we are trying to do after we leave the EU is to have no internal borders between Northern Ireland and parts of UK.

    =

     In contrast….

    Verhofstadt described the Irish border as an “illogical divide” and called for it to remain invisible.,

    https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/sep/21/eu-brexit-negotiator-attacks-boris-johnson-old-fashioned-views-on-identity-european

    How dare this Belgian twerp talk in derogatory terms about an international frontier…

    ==

    ======

    ….which both his own country, and Dublin, affirmed was inviolable when they signed the Helsinki Treaty in 1975.

    In what possible way is Ulster’s border with Eire any more an illogical divide than any other border anywhere in the world?

    It was agreed by solemn treaty in 1925, with signatories from London, Dublin and Belfast and it was only when De Valera, Hitler’s champion mourner…

    ====

    De Valera’s Disgrace Replicated – No Tears, Please, for Chavez 

    …came to power that Eire’s expansionist ambitions challenged its legitimacy.

    Sure, adjustments might be in order, as were mooted when the boundary was drawn.

    =======

    It might be needful to re-draw the line, to remove disloyal infestations such as exist in Crossmaglen and other pockets of treason.

    Certainly that will become essential if enemies outbreed patriots and use a ‘border poll’ to vote for annexation by Dublin.

    =

    ==

    The right to self-determination that belongs to the Ulster-British, as to all peoples, may have to be thereby safeguarded.

    But arrogant aliens like Guy Verhofstadt have no role to play, or to pontificate on, the affairs of Ulster.

    “Europe?” What’s Ghastly Guy On About Now? 


    The European parliament’s Brexit negotiator has launched a scathing attack on Boris Johnson, saying his recent criticism of young voters who feel allegiance to Europe was “old-fashioned” and “nonsense…”

     =====

    ===========

    That Europhiliac fanatic Guy Verhofstadt was making an indisputable statement when he told a special meeting of three committees in the Irish parliament that it was perfectly possible to feel European while at the same time feeling allegiance to your country of birth. 

    A quick aside, though, before we get into the nub of the matter. One assumes the report refers to EIRE’S parliament…

    Map of the Island of Ireland – please note that the ‘Irish Parliament’ referred to in the report does not represent or govern that lovely red, white and blue British bit at the top of the picture

    =====

    …since ‘Ireland’ is not a country but a geographical expression.

    It pains me yet again to offer a review of the obvious objections to the Belgian fanatic’s latest burbling, but here’s what I’ve been saying for years and years about this, in pictorial form…

     

    .

    =

    …that of course no thinking Brit dislikes, much less hates, Europe, but that the ‘European Union’ is a detestable supranational construct devised by bad people with bad objectives.

    ———————

    Like Adolf Hitler, Jean Monnet held the common people in contempt…

    “Europe’s nations should be guided towards the super-state without their people understanding what is happening. This can be accomplished by successive steps each disguised as having an economic purpose, but which will eventually and irreversibly lead to federation.”
    Jean Monnet, Founder of the European Movement.

     ——————

    British people understand that their cultural identity is linked in innumerable ways with the common heritage of Greece and Rome and Christendom. There’s pride to be taken from that.

    =

    =

    I delighted in my teenage travels, hitching all over those countries currently under Brussels rule. Here in Jakarta I enjoy the company of other foreigners, from various European nations – as well, of course, of many Indonesians.

    ALLEGIANCE is something different entirely.

    British allegiance belongs to Queen and Country, to the magnificent Union Jack flag.

    That’s why many of us find it slightly nauseating to hear millennials – and some dreary old toe-rags too…

    ….

    ‘Hee-Haw!’

    ….

    …whining and shrilling in favour of foreign rule.

    It’s a sign of fundamental immaturity on the part of those who say they want supranational supervision, who assert that a realm as distinguished and rich in achievement  would somehow be better off remaining under Euro-Commissars…

    =

    =

    ….whose values are neither British nor truly European, but in fact alien to the traditions of most every decent person across the Continent.

    =

    =

    The Third Reich’s Festung Europa wanted Brits to pay allegiance to Berlin, much as the Fourth Reich wants today’s generation to bow to Brussels…

    =

    ==

    ….and it’s sad that some of that generation are so eager to do so.

    We understand that Ghastly Guy regards Brits who think British suffer from “…a binary, old-fashioned and reductionist understanding of identity.”

    – even if we don’t understand a lot of his fancy-pants vocabulary  – Binary? Reductionist?

    That word old-fashioned, though, is clear enough.

    =

    =

    Yet it sounds funny, coming from somebody the object of whose adulation carries so many echoes from the past.

      Nice one, Ross.
      Van Damme or whatever he calls himself has been sticking his nose into Ulster, from Dublin, to add insult to injury.

      I don’t know what’s going to happen because neither May nor Corbyn are to be trusted.
      I am only glad my parents’ generation are not around now to see all they fought for in WW2 being thrown away
      So many of these sick young people too badly educated in their country’s history to feel shame at the rubbish they talk.
