British ratification of EU treaty- a loss of freedom

"An most lamentable event is about to take place on British soil that will remove our right to choose how to live. It shall take away our voice in foreign affairs, it shall not let us choose our own domestic laws, and it shall impose directive upon directive upon us.

The UK is poised to ratify the EU treaty in parliament within the next 24 hours.

As Gordon Brown and his Labour party walk into the House of Commons tomorrow to sign this unifying legislation, Britons on the street are utterly dumbfounded. There is opposition to this act in the commons from the Conservative party, though that is unlikely to make any difference due to Liberal Democrat support for the Labour party.

In short, we Britons are standing at the brink. We are standing at a crossroad that once crossed, may not be doubled back on. At the stroke of midnight tomorrow, our fate may be sealed by our dear unelected Prime Minister and his lackeys.

What does the EU treaty do? It erodes the national governance of our country by throwing our 60 million voices to the wind. It allows Brussels and Europe to control our domestic agenda, and more worryingly to TAKE our UN security council seat whenever they deem necesary.

In my opinion, this is an unacceptable proposition. The freedom of this nation shall be lost tomorrow, but how many shall weep for it? How many shall fight for it? My guess is none. The war we fought nigh on 60 years ago is almost forgotten.

If you ask me, this is the biggest threat faced by British sovereignty since 1938 and that pesky chap named Adolf. And again our politicians are set upon appeasement. "

I think it's a good thing. It's one small step to a unified world. It seems similar to NAFTA to me, except yall have one government.

thats really unfortunate. I believe having a big government can oly hurt the little guy. The best thing for britain is to remain britain and not part of the United States of Europe as some of you deem it to be these days.

Even if a big government wasnt corrupt, and wanted to help you. theres just too many voices to listen to and it turns into nothing.

This is what happens when you believe that government is the great equalizer.

Modern day liberalism is based on control and restriction.
