Curly’s Corner Shop, the blog!

I should have expected it of the Eurocrats

Not content with bypassing the collective minds of the Irish people, nor content with riding roughshod over the people of France and the Netherlands in a previous referendum on the ill fated Euro Constitution, the Euro conspirators in the guise of European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso want the process of ratification to continue – in plain defiance of it’s own rules that ALL 27 member states need to agree to the Lisbon Treaty. They are already trying to worm their way around the legal niceties and force this new Constitution upon us.

And pity help anyone who disagrees or expresses a contrary opinion!

As Cranmer reveals they have a plan for bloggers like myself and others and notes that there is ‘a minority with malicious intentions or hidden agendas’, and that these ‘pose a danger’. This is indeed the behaviour that one should have expected from the federalists who are determined that their argument should be heard above all others, this is the way forward for them to control content, opinion, and analysis.

The report, drafted by Estonian Socialist Marianne Mikko, calls for ‘a voluntary code to identify the interests of the authors, clarification of their legal status and an ombudsman to guarantee media freedom’. A euphemism for superstate control if ever I saw it!

Ms Mikko said: “The blogosphere has so far been a haven of good intentions and relatively honest dealing. However, with blogs becoming commonplace, less principled people will want to use them.”

Asked if she considered bloggers to be ‘a threat’, she said, “We do not see the bloggers as a threat. They are in position, however, to considerably pollute cyberspace. We already have too much spam, misinformation and malicious intent in cyberspace.” She added, “I think the public is still very trusting towards blogs, it is still seen as sincere. And it should remain sincere. For that we need a quality mark, a disclosure of who is really writing and why.”

Oh right – I’ll be able to continue blogging and expressing my own opinion, and that of others, only if I have the necessary EU quality mark. Just what Goebbels ordered!

These buggers need to be watched and held to account, but it will be awkward and difficult to do that whilst Brown, Miliband, and the other 9,223 legislators continue to sign away our sovereignty and ancient rights and customs behind our backs without so much as asking our opinion first!

Give us a referendum or call a halt to the Lisbon Treaty – David Davies should be shouting from the rooftops about these erosions of free speech!
