Cameron bars eurosceptic ministers from referendum
David Cameron's move to block ministers in a future Conservative government from campaigning to quit the EU is a sign of weakness. Still, when the time comes, they must retain the courage to say the emperor has no clothes

Britain's complicated relationship with Europe
Against the whole run of our past policy and experiences over centuries, since the 60s the UK establishment, with some notable exceptions, has decided to allow and actively promote a new European hegemon to emerge called the European Union. It's a very dangerous experiment

A 2015 new deal for England in UK, and UK in EU
2015 should be the year when the ball starts rolling for England to get a proper deal within the UK and the UK to get a radically different relationship with the EU. A heck of a lot rides on the general election. We'd better get it right

Why 2015 should be a great year for enemies of the West

Santa won't visit the EU, but a eurosceptic Pope did

The Europhile gerontocracy: Deluded Ken Clarke accuses Eurosceptics of "silly" arguments
Ken Clarke and his Europhile friends are making the same mistake as the geriatric leaders of the Soviet Union as it approached its demise.

Cameron’s worthless 11th hour EU “Reform” con
David Cameron's leaked strategy for reforming Britain's relationship with the EU confirms he simply cannot be trusted to get a real deal. The only way of truly reforming our relationship is to get Britain out of the EU altogether. The rest is smoke and mirrors

More outrageous EU demands
Whenever Eurocrats realise their ambitious spending commitments cannot be fulfilled, they casually raid Britain’s coffers while our political classes do little more than fake outrage and horror. It will only stop of we get Britain out
