EU Referendum Campaign Party Poll 30 March 2011

Tory Voters Tell Cameron ‘we want a referendum’
 
A new ComRes poll for the EU Referendum Campaign, published today, shows that a large majority of Conservative and Liberal Democrat voters want their parties to commit to a referendum on continued EU membership.
 
In a week that has seen controversy over the UK’s exposure to a bailout of the Portuguese economy, the poll also found that fully two-thirds of the public oppose Britain contributing financially to it.
 
James Pryor, Chief Executive of the EU Referendum Campaign, said “Again, our polls show the disconnect between the politicians and the people. Both David Cameron and Nick Clegg should seriously consider asking their own parties how they feel on an in/out referendum. I am not sure whether it is sheer arrogance or just plain stupidity to ignore the wishes of their own supporters. What are they afraid of?”
 
Andrew Hawkins, Chairman of ComRes, said “The EU undoubtedly has a major image problem.  Fewer than one in three people feel Britain gets a good deal from being a member of the EU and almost half regard the EU as ‘fundamentally undemocratic’.  These are problems that, unless addressed, will be left to fester in the minds of the electorate.”
 
Full results:
 
I want my party to commit to a referendum on continued EU membership
Agree: 53%
Disagree: 35%
Don’t know: 12%
 
(Conservative (63%) and Liberal Democrat voters (66%) are more likely than Labour voters (48%) to say that they want their party to commit to a referendum on continued EU membership.)
        
The EU is fundamentally undemocratic
Agree: 45%
Disagree: 36%
Don’t know: 19%
 
Britain gets a good deal from being a member of the EU

DAVID CAMERON UNDER FIRE OVER HIS PROMISE ON EU BUDGET

David Cameron is under fire over his promise on the EU budget
Wednesday November 10,2010

By Alison Little, Deputy Political Editor

DAVID Cameron was forced yesterday to fend off a claim of dishonesty over his pledge to hold down next year’s increase in the EU budget.
A key player in crunch talks starting tomorrow about the 2011 settlement claimed governments demanding a 2.9 per cent limit knew full well more cash would still have to be found.
The accusation came from MEP chief negotiator. Sidonia Jedrzejewska, of the Polish centre-Right.
 
She said member states ­supporting a 2.9 per cent deal knew extra cash would have to be added during the year to meet existing ­commitments, through “amended budgets” to pay for things such as ­pensions for retired eurocrats.
“It is not an honest proposal. People who wrote the letter know it will be more in the end. They are just postponing payments,” she claimed.
She said “putting a stop” on the EU budget meant capping “ambition” too, adding: “You can’t have more for less.”
A British Government spokesman denied dishonesty, insisting: “The UK is determined to go no higher than 2.9 per cent.
“This is not about postponing payments and we are not privately planning to agree to further increases to the 2011 budget through amending budgets next year. That is wishful thinking on behalf of MEPs. Any future amending of budgets should be about re-prioritising expenditure within these limits, not increasing them.”
His denial came as a new poll underlined the depth of British taxpayers’ anger at the EU’s continuing cost.
And there was cast-iron proof over the poor state of EU finances as ­auditors refused it a clean bill of health for the 16th year running.
The European Court of Auditors said key areas in the £88billion budget were still “materially affected by error”.
Nearly three quarters of people think the £48million a day that Britain sends to Brussels would be better spent here to ease the pain of the coalition’s ­public spending cuts. Some 68 per cent of those polled by ComRes for the EU Referendum Campaign agreed Britain should demand an “immediate reduction in its £17billion a year ­contribution to the EU budget.
This figure “does not take into account the UK rebate which other EU countries want to scrap”. Only 23 per cent thought Britain got good value for money from the EU.
The campaign’s James Pryor said: “This confirms the disconnect between the political elite and real people.”

The Daily Sport Comes Out In Support of an EU Referendum - 19-Oct-2010

The Daily Sport Comes Out In Support of an EU Referendum - 19-Oct-2010
EU Must Give Us A Vote

THREE quarters of people in the UK want a vote on whether we should quit the cash-gobbling European Union.

According to results published by the EU Referendum Campaign, 75% of the British public want a say on us staying in the emerging superstate.
And 73% reckon our contribution of £48million a day to the Brussels coffers is not good value for money.

Britain’s unease with our membership of the European club will be increased by news yesterday that Prime Minister David Cameron is set to cave in and allow the EU to squeeze more money from UK taxpayers.

With domestic services facing cuts outlined in last week’s spending review, Cameron had promised to block the 5.9% increase in the EU’s budget for next year.

But yesterday government sources conceded that the Brussels cash grab would go ahead and the already-bloated £107billion EU budget would swell by £3.15 billion.

That means Brit taxpayers will be asked to shell out an extra £435m a year, on top of the £8.3bn we already pay for membership of the EU.

Brussels’ latest spending spree is another reason why the British voters should have a say on our membership of the European Union, according to the EU Referendum Campaign.

Official spokesman, Jon Gaunt, said that a vote on Britain’s membership of the EU is long overdue and that the Union is a club not worth joining.

The TV and radio personality said: “Most working people join a club for cheap beer or some other benefit. What benefit do we get from the EU?

“For every £2.60 that every man and woman pays into the EU, they get a pound back.

“Who would join a club where you pay £3.80 for a £2.60 pint of beer? There’s not a working person in Britain who’d join a club like that!”

He added: “If people thought that the MPs’ expenses scandal was bad, it’s even worse in Brussels.

“Politicians support Brussels because it is a place they can go to when their pitiful careers at Westminster are over — just look at the Kinnocks!

“It is ordinary readers of the Daily Sport, coppers, plasterers and brickies who will pay for the mess that the bankers and the MPs have got us in to.

“Ordinary working class blokes and women are ultimately paying with their jobs.

“We know that David Cameron has been shocked by the reaction to the poll already. If something like 60% had called for a vote, then those in the Westminster Village could have ignored it.

“But 75% is just an overwhelming figure.

“If we get a million people to sign our petition then the demand for a vote cannot be ignored.

“Let’s have a vote. What are they scared of?”

James Pryor, chief executive of the EU Referendum Campaign said: “This sends a clear message to the Prime Minister, David Cameron, that the British public demand to have a say on our relationship with the EU before any budget increase can be approved.

“The £48m a day we send to the EU could be used to save British jobs, invest in our defence force and give all our young people equal access to higher education.

“We are not only facing a financial deficit — we are facing a democratic deficit.”

*** - 75% of the British Public want a Referendum on the EU

British Public want a Referendum on the EU
   
An Exclusive EU Referendum Campaign Poll, conducted by ComRes, reveals that...
75% of the British Public want a Referendum on the EU 
73% of the public don't believe that Britain's contribution to the EU of £48 million a Day is a good value for money

These results are part of a poll which examines the public's views on British involvement in the EU. In the context of continuing financial instability, the poll shows that the public remain unconvinced about the economic value of EU membership. 6 in 10 people say that " Britain could survive perfectly well on its own outside the EU", while less than one in three people believe that "Britain gets more financially than it gives to the EU".


James Pryor, Chief Executive of the EU Referendum Campaign, said: "This sends a clear message to David Cameron that the British Public demand a say on our relationship with the EU before any budget increase can be approved. The £48 million a day we send to the EU could be used to save British jobs, invest our Defence Force and give all our young people equal access to higher education. We are not only facing a financial deficit ... we are facing a democratic deficit."


Andrew Hawkins, Chairman of ComRes, said: “In light of last week’s dramatic spending review and continuous messaging from Government about the need for belt-tightening, it is understandable that the public wants reassurance that taxpayers get value for money from every pound the Government spends. This poll shows that among an already sceptical public, the Government have an uphill struggle to sell the benefits of EU membership given the current economic climate.”

"Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. ..........


"Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. ..........
In a series of debates on socialism published in 1914,  John Basil Barnhill said:





"Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty."



It is self evident, from correspondence I have seen to day, that neither 
The Petition Campaign for an EU Referendum
nor  
The EU Referendum Campaign
see their initial aim as THE goal.


There will be teething problems as it is early days for both and there will be little mens big egos to deal with as they feel their days of being taken seriously slip away for them, having endlessly provided Einstein with his proof that:


'To repeat the same experiment over and over again and expect a different result is a sign of madness'.


I can not promise but I do believe we can make this time different.


For half a Century we have armed our Government to laugh at us - we have arrived with petitions of 1,000s, sometimes 10,000s even 100s of 1,000s telling our Government we are not serious and we are weak.


You will remember the contempt with which Tony Blair sneared at the electorate when over 1,000,000 marched through London - at his first available opportunity on his feet in The House of Commons he proudly announced this showed that 60,000,000 people in Britain did not march and they were content.


Some may remember his open mic. error when he retorted:
"F**k the electorate"
well he surely did!
He also stuck us with both the bill and the body bags!



It was then that it was made plain for all to see that we lived in a 'tyranny' as the Government had no fear of the people and it was this knowledge that gave him such contempt for the British peoples that he lied to Parliament, he lied to our Monarch and he used our troops as an armed force to carry out his personal goals for his personal ego - his lies led to Crimes Against Humanity and the slaughter of over a Million people - making terrorism on our streets a justifiable action for extremists.




With your help there are 4 differences this time:  


01. 
We are working together - not joining together each individual can take what action they believe is best, in this co-operative venture - whether that is making presentations to the press, lobbying MPs and other Politicians, showing that MPs, Councillors and MEPs seats will fall in disaray if they fail to represent the will of the people.


02. 
We are taking actions which are complimentary as separate organisations acting in harmony and co-operation, I for one am not nor will I be a member of any of the organisations but I will help any Patriot in any way I can to regain our Liberty as a free peoples with sovereign self determination, with our own borders, controlled by our own peoples and SERVED by our own politicians, that we can select and elect AND if they do not Serve in accord with their duty that we can Recall.




03.
But in the background we have a core of people - who will NEVER be known putting together a structure, plans, vison and the very machinery of Government with a national organisation below the radar with organisers and Patriots across these United Kingdoms who are aware that our enemy is NOT membership of The EU, it is NOT some nebulous New World Order, it is NOT Globalism and it surely is NOT Common Purpose or Free Masonry. They bring each their own betrayals and self serving self interest.


Our Country's enemy is a self styles, self serving, self appointed Political elite backed by the betrayal of these United Kingdoms by The Mandarins and minions of The Civil Service and Government, funded by YOU for Your enslavement and their luxury life styles and feather bedded pensions.


As OUR Monarch said: "The enemy within".




04. 
Patriotism being carried out by gaining an initial 100,000 signatures with The Petition Campaign for an EU Referendum the delivery of that petition to Downing Street and to The Petition bag of The Speakers Chair is the first step in raising the publicity stakes to show we are NOT going to go away EVER.


Meanwhile The EU Referendum Campaign will be working to gain pledges of support and making MPs, councillors and MEPs aware that their constituents will NOT quit and DO threaten their seats.



Yes its all been done before but as we move towards our FIRST Million signatures, which is only a matter of collecting 100,000 9 more times, more and more people will become aware and signatures will snowball. 


"Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty."

 
Be oh so minded of this FACT when you reflect upon OUR Governments betrayal to the rule of aliens centralised in The EU under the malign New Constitution The Lisbon Treaty in all its irrelevant, unlawful dishonesty. 



IF YOU DOUBT that when The Government fears the people they have Liberty be minded that OUR Government and its parasites are currently not only funding the polygamy of Islam and its practices, but permitting variance of our planning laws for specific sectors of those who DEMAND, and also permitting the influx of Sharia Law not JUST to take precedence over British Law for they betrayed that many years ago to the corrupt and undemocratic concepts of Justice from the top down as a 'system of REPRESSION' under The EU's 'Corpus Juris' - but also precedent over the risible Justice of The EU.


Donations will help fund advertising (Can you fund 3 x 1/8 page in the Express for Patriotism just send us a cheque for £20K - or would you rather fund your enemies in taxes?). 


We need only do this 30 more times and we will have the entire adult population working for a free, Fair, Informed Britain and Patriotic Liberty.

We seek the fundamental Human Right of Freedom of Self Determination and it WILL be delivered.









As John Basil Barnhill said:
"Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty."



'The Enemy Within' would be wise to feel a frisson of fear for we will have Liberty.  




Our aim is Liberty and we will do what it takes - Some may parlez, some may protest, some may be hard to hold back from violence - But we will have OUR Liberty, we will appoint our own Servants and they WILL Serve us. 




We will NOT be bought off with a pat on the head and the assurance that our self serving Political elite and their neophites know best.



We will NOT be bought off with Aesopian language and NLP with their wording for a Referendum and their control of the budget and the media for OUR Referendum.
It will be a FAIR, Informed and EQUALLY FUNDED Referendum.



Do not forget that currently these United Kingdoms are NOT a Lawfull part of The EU as it has been openly admitted that Edward Heath and others of the self styled political elite not only lied to the British Peoples, Parliament and The Queen in Parliament but did so deliberately.


Edward Heath stated before the Nation in a David Frost interview that when he said 'There will be no essential loss of British Sovereignty'
he deliberately lied on behalf of the Government as they believed that if the British peoples knew the truth they would vote NO in the Referendum to enshrine The Treaty of Rome in British Law.


This ignoble betrayal was repeated on the floor of The House of Commons.




Since British Law at the time, upheld by The Treaty of Vienna, clearly stated that should one party to an agreement or contract mislead the other to obtain acquiescence, compliance, participation or commitment by another said agreement or contract shall be as void.




We were outright lied to and lied to with intent to deceive - Britain's authorisation of The Treaty of Rome is thus Null and Void.




Since no subsequent vote of the British peoples has been taken and all subsequent Treaties are merely ammendments of the former these United Kingdoms are NOT bound by said agreements or Treaties.




Thus for our 'Enemy within' to surrender £48 Millions per day of OUR money not only to a body ultra vires to British law in that it does not keep and present adequate legal books and accounting but which has no legal status in British law.




The money is therefore the passing over, by 'The Enemy Within', of stolen money obtained by deceit and handed to an illegal organisation under British Law.




That is not for one moment to fall back on our perfectly valid British Constitution which as recently as the last Government clearly stated that The Magna Carta was NOT an arcane document but a part not only of our heritage but also of our law and valid to this day - I quote The Rt. Hon. Jack Straw in his position as Foreign Secretary.




I am happy to engage with anyone who wishes to debate the issues of Treason and the invalidity of setting it aside under the terms of our Constitution.




Yes THIS TIME it is different because behind the activities of
The Petition Campaign for an EU Referendum
and 
The EU Referendum Campaign
There is a Vision, an emerging Plan, a Determination to gain our Liberty by fair and legal means but be minded Liberty is achieved via One, Two, Three or Four boxes - let us hope 'The Enemy Within' has the good sense to permit the first two to avoid escalation to the Third & Fourth



The First Box is The Soap Box


The Second Box is The Ballot Box
The Third Box is The Ammunition Box


& may our Political elite and their parasites be spared the Fourth Box because:


The Fourth Box is A Coffin.
