European Constitution
At the end of last week, leaders of the 25 EU members signed the EU Constitution despite the strong opposition in many countries. Ten countries plan to hold a referendum in the next two years. Ours will probably not be held until 2006.
In the end, it's a matter of whether we can trust our politicians. Experience of the last referendum, in 1975, suggests that a pan-European elite has emerged comprising self-appointed intellectuals who feel a stronger loyalty to Brussels than to their own people. They have such a strong sense of their own righteousness that they feel entitled to mislead the electorate.
We have produced a facsimile of the Government leaflet produced for the 1975 referendum. It shows the extent to which we have been deceived.

You say: "in the end it depends on whether we trust our politicians"
Surely the answer to that is a resounding no!! How can anyone who has lived a few adult years and is in their right mind can ever trust a politician, is utterly beyond me.
