EU follows US into stealing from future generations

“the EU’s bailout-and-borrow policy had taken on a momentum of its own, like a runaway train. That train is now going at maximum speed, and has passed the point where a switch can still be thrown. The only question is when it hits the buffers. My guess is that we are months away.” – MEP Daniel Hannan in The Telegraph. Much the same can be said of the US debt problem.

We Don’t Like the Future We See

Europe’s financial collapse is the result of extravagant deficit spending and the increased percentage of the population dependent on government handouts, which their people have begun to believe are entitlements. Europe’s cultural collapse is the result of allowing a tsunami immigration of people who will not assimilate into European civilization, will not obey the laws of their adopted country, and stubbornly retain their loyalty to and customs of their native land.

Will Britain abandon the European Titanic?

“you have decided to head off on the Titanic towards economic and democratic disaster and we are now in a lifeboat outside the Titanic, but we’re threatened by a bow wave that is going to come and engulf us if we’re not careful – and it’s retribution – We’ve heard the language of retribution this morning – financial market legislation is going to be imposed upon Britain and we will have no influence whatsoever over any of it.” – Nigel Farage MEP and Co-President of Europe of Freedom and Democracy

European MEP calls for lower taxes, less regulation for growth

EU climate insanity

MEP Hannan says “doom is almost upon us and here we are solemnly talking about these proposals massively to increase our debt and deficit and to pour more money into this climate project.
