Discussion Forum for Readers and Supporters of European Action

I am also in the South East constituency and I have voted on the candidate's background and the major issues they campaign on.
In the last European Elections I voted for Dr Caroline Lucas who is now the leader of the Green Party.
She is articulate, educated and sincere. Environmental issues are ignored at our peril and I believe that all of humanity is threatened. We should not simply be concerned with matters within our own borders.
She is also pro-European Union and thus going in the right direction.
Dr Lucas gets my vote again this time round.
Your reasons for voting Libertas are equally sound although I am not in favour of protest votes. You should vote for a candidate whose group will have some influence and impact. The Greens are also Europe-wide.
It goes without saying that I would never consider any party that calls for Britain's withdrawal from Europe.

Looking at the choices in my EU constituancy (South East UK) I think Libertas might get my vote.
Pro-Europe, reformist, democratic, and Europe wide.
Thoughts?

A Welsh heritage site pays its respects to Jeffrey Hamm, the Secretary of Mosley's Union Movement.
The comments on that web page are especially interesting.

Why does Keith Thompson love telling fibs?

I have my suspicions regarding how you may have been placed on the BNP's mailing list but I may be wrong. Perhaps someone is forwarding these Gri££inite messages. I receive them by this path which consist of a never-ending stream of 'begging letters' from Nick Gri££in.
I take your point about Churchill, the man who once said, "I will not preside over the liquidation of the British Empire", but did exactly that while accepting honorary American citizenship. That is how patriotic this corrupt man was. As you say, they are welcome to him.
Of course, there is no virtue in being anti-Muslim or anti-Arab. The BNP may try to make political capital out of such a nasty and bigoted platform but the electorate will finally discover that they have nothing else to offer. Totally moribund.
Churchill was all for European unity after the war but so long as Britain was not involved. He was largely responsible for the disastrous policy of the 'special relationship' with the United States ... placing us in a semi-permanent position of servility to Uncle Sam.
I could go on.

Barak Obama's message to Iran is high on window dressing but low on substance. In effect he's saying We will welcome you back into the world community (whatever that is) if you give up helping the Palestinians to defend themselves from Israeli state terrorism. No change there then.

Somehow I have ended up on the BNP mailing list and from the latest message I see that Nick Griffin has not only roped in Vera Lynn (against her will) and the White Cliffs of Dover but are now using imagery of Winston Churchill to promote their 'Battle for Britain'campaign. The BNP has even dragged up some disparaging words 'the W.C.' made about Islamic people. I understand he was equally scathing about Indian people.

The BNP is welcome to Churchill, the man who presided over the decline of Britain from first rate power to banckrupt nation, was responsible along with Hitler for starting a war in which 60,000,000 died and agreed to Soviet Russia taking over more than half of our European homeland. Although he professed to believe in European unity he never lifted a finger to help bring it about.

The fact that he expressed hateful views against Arab and Indian people only serves to underline the malevolant nature of this loser.

The world must be growing tired of this hypocrisy from American Secretaries of State. US foreign policy under Obama is no different to that under George W. Bush.
Why? It is the power of the Jewish Lobby, of course.
Hilary Clinton backs Israel up to the hilt no matter what the Zionists do to the defenceless Palestinians. It is truly heart-breaking.

Hilary Clinton says she can't talk to Hamas until they renounce violence. In the recent Gaza conflict the Hammas resistance managed to kill about six Israeli agressers, whereas the Israelis killed almost 1500 innocent civilians and put another 5000 into wheelchairs for the rest of their lives. Shouldn't it be the Israelis renouncing violence seeing how they're the ones committing 99% of it?

Do you not find it strange thet Mrs Clinton put a wreath down for Holocaust
victims while visiting Isreal. I wonder if she will do the same for the Palistinians, if she ever visits them.

Is this the police simply acting on a complaint and getting it wrong AGAIN? No matter the source, the arrests were proven to be totally unjustified but the consequences for the aid campaign could have been much worse.
Muslims in Britain are being stereotyped quite wrongly, in my opinion. The police are simply pawns in this game but they are easily used to harrass and persecute innocent people. What's new, I hear you say?
There is no such thing as Islamic terrorism. The real terrorism is Zionist and neo-con in America. They are also war criminals.

You will probably have heard of the disgraceful events when the police detained a number of people, their trucks and their relief supplies that were part of the 'Viva Palestina' peace convoy. No reason was given for the detentions and even though the people were released (though I understand the police are still holding the supplies so desperately needed in Gaza)the number of public donations dropped by 80% at the suggestion of some 'wrong doing'.

One does not have to be a genius to know what happened here, pressure was put on police by certain friends of Israel in order to derail part of the relief convoy. No doubt suggestions were made concerning the nature of what was contained on the trucks. I hope that when the police come to review the case and realise that certain people have tried to manipulate them they will charge the culprits with wasting police time and making malicious false accusations.
