As I said before, this kind of oppression only appears when democracy itself is threatened and removed from the people.
Tyrants cannot survive and prosper when there is democracy for in a democracy they are accountable to the people and if they fail the people choose someone else.
Thus we need only look around us now and ask ourselves what is actually happening?
Is democracy being threatened ? Yes absolutely
How is it manifested?? By a corrupt Establishment refusing to enact a democratic referendum result and pushing us ever further into a regime which itself does not operate democracy.
The EU is a dictatorship plain and simple.
Nobody gets to vote for the leaders.
The European Parliament is just a toothless tiger that has no power to do anything. Thus the voting system for the various European Level Parties is just a sham paying nothing but lip service to the idea of democracy and there to create the illusion of it.
The unelected EC is the body that makes changes, makes the rules, calls the shots. It can not be opposed or removed. It is a law unto itself comprised of dictators who will not expose themselves to the rigors of a democratic election.
The various EU Treaties which are used to shackle EU members states clearly that they may not oppose the EU or its aims and agendas and that if they do the EU can use whatever force is required. Those are the tenets of a police state, an Orwellian nightmare.
We can wax lyrical all we like about aspects of the EU but the fundamental and most core basic issue of freedom remains that the people MUST have a democracy and that leaders are accountable to the people.
The EU does not support this. It seeks to remove democracy and operate without it. Thereby we can determine its true intentions.
We need to be out of it as soon as humanly possible and we should never ever have been in it in the first place.
