Revealed: The Five Nightmare Certainties of Staying IN the EU

 

 

 

 

  1. The UK will continue to send £350 million to Brussels every week.
  2. Free movement of people will continue permanently. This will get worse when Albania, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey join the EU.
  3. EU regulation will continue to cost British companies over £600 million each week.
  4. We will continue to be unable to remove criminals and terrorists whose presence in the UK is not conducive to the public good.
  5. We will have to pay out up to £43 billion in tax refunds to multinational businesses.

 

Commenting, Vote Leave Chief Executive Matthew Elliott said:

 

‘If people vote to stay, they are voting for the free movement of people from Europe to the UK, permanently. This will get worse when Albania, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey join the EU. British business will continue to be strangled by EU regulation and we will continue to send £50 million each week to Brussels.

 

‘If we Vote Leave on 23 June, we take back control of our money, our borders and our democracy. That’s the safer option for our future.’

 

 

The UK will continue to send £350 million to Brussels every week.

In 2014, the UK’s gross contributions to the EU budget were £19,107 million, or £367 million per week.

The Head of the UK Statistics Authority, Sir Andrew Dilnot, has said ‘Yes, the £19.1 billion figure is a legitimate figure… the official statistics are the £19.1 billion’.

 

Free movement of people will continue permanently. This will get worse when Albania, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey join the EU.

After the renegotiation, the unamended EU Treaties will still give every citizen of the EU the right to come to the UK. The EU Treaties provide that: ‘Citizens of the Union shall enjoy… the right to move and reside freely within the territory of the Member States’.

In 2015, 270,000 persons came to the UK from the EU, the equivalent of the population of Newcastle. Net migration was 184,000, the equivalent of adding a city the size of Oxford to the UK population each year.

There are currently five candidate countries: Albania, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey. When they join, their 88 million citizens will also acquire the right of free movement. As the Government has admitted, ‘once a country becomes a Member State of the EU its citizens have the same rights under EU law as other EU nationals‘.

 

EU regulation will continue to cost British companies over £600 million each week.

The 100 most costly EU regulations have been estimated to cost British business £33.3 billion each year, or over £600 million per week.

This is likely an underestimate. In 2005, HM Treasury admitted that: ‘although Europe’s founders aimed to remove barriers and reap the benefits of expanded markets internally, they also sought protection and special treatment for particular aspects of their economies such as agriculture. This has brought costs: expensive subsidies still remain in some sectors and it is estimated that barriers to external trade and investment – such as tariffs, quotas and unjustifiably restrictive standards – could cost Europe’s consumers up to 7 per cent of EU GDP‘. This is the equivalent of £125.2 billion per year in today’s prices, or £4,638 per household.

 

We will continue to be unable to remove criminals and terrorists whose presence in the UK is not conducive to the public good.

EU law prevents us from removing serious criminals. This includes violent killer Theresa Rafacz, a Polish national who killed her husband, including by kicking him in the face with a shod foot while he lay on the ground defenceless and drunk. Mr Justice Hart ruled the offence involved ‘gratuitous violence’. She was sentenced to four years’ imprisonment. Nonetheless, Mr Justice Blake later ruled that EU law prevented her removal, stating that there was ‘no basis’ which could ‘justify her deportation on the grounds of public policy‘.

EU law prevents us from removing persons our courts have concluded are terrorists. In 2015, the Special Immigration Appeals Commission ruled the UK could not exclude the French national ‘ZZ’ from the UK because of EU law, despite the fact that he was a suspected terrorist. The Commission concluded that: ‘We are confident that the Appellant was actively involved in the GIA [Algerian Armed Islamic Group], and was so involved well into 1996. He had broad contacts with GIA extremists in Europe. His accounts as to his trips to Europe are untrue. We conclude that his trips to the Continent were as a GIA activist’.

 

 

We will have to pay out up to £43 billion in tax refunds to multinational businesses.

Rulings of the European Court have exposed the taxpayer to massive liabilities for tax refunds to big business. The OBR now forecasts that HMRC will pay out £7.3 billion from 2016-2017 to 2020-2021, an average of £270.43 per household. If HMRC also loses every case currently pending (a further £35.6 billion), the UK will be forced to pay out £42.9 billion, the equivalent of £1,589 per household.

 

The UK has tried to block these payouts before but its tax legislation has been overruled by the European Court. If we vote to stay, the European Court will continue to take control over our tax system and require multi-billion payouts to the multinational businesses.

EU Referendum Postal Vote instruction Urges Voters to Stay in EU

EU Referendum Postal Vote instruction Urges Voters to Stay in EU

In a blatant disregard of electoral rules, the instructions for the postal vote clearly guides the voter to ‘Remain a member of the European Union’ with a graphic of a pencil in the box for that selection.

The instructional leaflets have been sent to thousands of council households with the postal ballot papers.

The guide is most certainly one that leads the voter towards voting to remain in the EU, and has a clearly defined picture of a hand with a pencil within that box.

how to vote

The aim of the EU referendum postal vote instructions, which was created by a pro-EU government agency is to guide the voter to vote remain in the EU, and is a blatant contravention of electoral rules which forbid the suggesting of how voters should vote on election materials.

In a skewed EU referendum, this instructional guide on how to vote to remain in the EU is no surprise. Everything about this referendum has been in favour of the remain camp, and there has been little or no impartiality.

Britain has descended into the electoral practices of Robert Mugabe’s Zimbabwe, and even though there is a legal case against these instructional guides, it is probably too late for any legal action as the damage has already been done.

Naturally, no one will be held accountable for what is most certainly a case of electoral fraud.

Leading IN Campaigner Admits Gove and Johnson Are Right On Immigration

 

Responding to Sir Vince Cable’s comments on Murnaghan this morning, Vote Leave Chief Executive Matthew Elliott said:

 

‘Vince Cable has finally admitted what everyone in the country already knows – we cannot control immigration if we stay in the European Union.

 

‘A vote to stay in is a vote for unlimited EU immigration and further strain on our schools and our NHS, which will only get worse when we pay for Turkey and its population of 77 million to join the club.

 

‘It is only by Voting Leave on 23 June that we will be able to take back control of our borders and the £50 million we hand over to Brussels every day.’

 

 

Sir Vince Cable admitted that Michael Gove and Boris Johnson are right, that it is impossible to control migration within the EU.

On Murnaghan, former Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, Sir Vince Cable, admitted that the points made by Michael Gove and Boris Johnson on immigration today were ‘actually valid‘.

He said: ‘I think what was said this morning about the immigration target this morning was actually quite interesting – Mr Gove and Boris Johnson – I mean the Liberal Democrats argued throughout the coalition that it was not sensible to have a rigid immigration target that couldn’t be met. It isn’t just because of migration from the European Union. You can’t control emigration from Britain. I mean we’re not East Germany or North Korea and of course if you manage to reduce British emigration, if British people stay at home and work at home, of course you then make the net immigration position worse, so it was a foolish target to have met and you have got different groups of people, you’ve got asylum seekers, workers, families, overseas students, who are not actually immigrants at all, all in the same number and we urged them to drop this target because it wasn’t achievable, and they repeated it again in 2015, so I think the basic point that Mr Gove is making is actually valid in its own terms‘.

Michael Gove, Boris Johnson and Gisela Stuart’s open letter to the Prime Minister on migration was reported in the Sunday Times.

Sir Vince also slammed the Prime Minister’s campaign to do Britain down for its exaggerated claims.

Sir Vince Cable admitted on Murnaghan that ‘there is exaggeration‘ on the part of the pro-EU campaign.

Sir Vince also admitted: ‘I don’t expect we are going to get Armageddon either way.‘

Project Fear: A Definition of Sanctioned Institutional Terrorism – ‘Using Fear as a Tool to Control the Masses’

Project Fear: A Definition of Sanctioned Institutional Terrorism – ‘Using Fear as a Tool to Control the Masses’

 

 

The definition of terrorism is: the unofficial or unauthorized use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.

Although there has not been any violence, there has certainly been intimidation in the pursuit of political aims, the aim of course being of scaring the public enough for them to vote to remain in the EU.

How does the government feel about resorting to such terroristic tactics to engender fear amongst the population? Well, the orchestrators of this fearful terrorist technique do not feel anything. Their only goal is to achieve their target of a remain vote in the EU referendum, in fact, if they ever felt any form of emotion, these operatives would not function well within Project Fear. It is only up to the public to feel something, they are the targets of this terror technique being employed on a daily basis during the EU referendum.

At some points, we would get three or four fearful headlines from prominent institutions told to relay some scripted horrid headline; when the Bank of England says something, it sounds official. When the head of the IMF spouts out a fearful headline or soundbite referring to the EU referendum, people get hot under the collar as the words seep through all news outlets.

It is the utilisation of official institutions and offices which shows how the government had no qualms about defiling these organisations with scripted terrorist headlines.

Defiling a known institution is exactly what Cameron has done with his terror campaign. How can we trust these institutions again, especially when analysing their skewed pro-EU data and finding so many falsities, blatant lies and massive holes in their data?

World War III

The government’s Project Fear is terrorism, it fits the exact definition of terrorism, and it acts exactly like terrorism, and the government has been using the exact same technique of engendering fear in the populace as ISIS, sans burning pilots in cages.

David Cameron’s pro-EU government uses the same technique a shepherd uses on sheep to herd them into a pen, where the shepherd uses dogs to cause fear upon the sheep and make them move into a pen, Cameron uses governmental institutions, world leaders and the media to herd the masses into acting out of fear, to be herded into only one singular thought pattern, when in reality there are many choices, the government has sought to create a funnel of fear, a corridor where there is no other choice but to choose the path he has created for them.

The reality of the EU referendum is that there are multiple avenues and variables, and Cameron’s role as a seasoned fearmonger is to narrow the field into only one choice for the masses through herding techniques of fear.

Repetition

The constant repetition of a false piece of information makes it true in the eyes of the public. This technique is borrowed from Nazi Germany’s propaganda technique and is being used by the Cameron government mercilessly.

“The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly and with unflagging attention. It must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over. Here, as so often in this world, persistence is the first and most important requirement for success.” – “War Propaganda”, in volume 1, chapter 6 of Mein Kampf (1925), by Adolf Hitler

If one is knowledgeable, there is no fear. Ignorance is a staple that Cameron and his corrupt cronies are counting on and exploiting to full effect.

The leaflet Cameron effectively financed by stealing from the taxpayers purse and foisted on the populace is such an example, and was full of inconsistencies, lies and disinformation. It was summarily debunked.

Do not fall for the same tricks utilised during the Scottish referendum, as the exact same techniques are now being employed during the EU referendum.

Do not fear, do not believe a word they say as it is all calculated to sway you towards a certain point through fear. Do your own research, question everything, cross reference data.

Terrorism can also be defined by the state use of fear, and the British people have been attacked by terror techniques for the past two months by their own government, albeit one that has been compromised by internal terrorists.

We are now in a period of purdah before the final vote on June 23, and the fearful headlines have died down slightly, but they will continue right up until polling day.

There is no fear in knowledge. Vote Leave on June 23.

Predict the European Championships and Win £50 Million – the Amount We Send to EU Every Single Day

Predict the European Championships and Win £50 Million – the Amount We Send to EU Every Single Day

Vote Leave has today launched 50million.uk, a competition to win £50 million – the amount of money we hand over to the EU every single day.

The competition is free to enter and involves the public using their skill and judgement to predict who they think will win each game of the 2016 European Football Championships this summer.

If they predict the outcome of each game correctly, the line up at the knockout stage, and all the games including the final then they will win £50 million. If no one predicts all the results then there is a guaranteed prize of £50,000 for the person who gets the most consecutive games correct from the first game of the tournament.

The competition is open to any member of the public who is over the age of 18 and is registered to vote in the EU referendum. How someone votes in the referendum or whether they even vote is irrelevant to whether they can enter and win.

Vote Leave is funding the £50 million prize via an insurance policy taken out with underwriters at Lloyds. The competition is based on a similar competition run by Warren Buffett based on March Madness basketball in the US.

win 50 mil

Vote Leave’s Campaign Director, Dominic Cummings, said:

‘Every day we spend at least £50 million on the EU – that’s £350 million a week which is enough to build an NHS hospital. We want as many people as possible to know that we are sending life changing sums to the EU every single day so we’re giving them a chance to win it. It’s a bigger prize than any one person has ever won on the national lottery.

‘This is the chance of a lifetime – just imagine what you could do with the £50 million we send to the EU every single day. We want everyone to have the chance to win the sort of money most people can only dream of, unless they are a banker or a Euro MP.

‘Too many people, particularly younger voters, don’t engage in politics and do not plan to vote in the referendum. For years there’s been a lot of talk about this problem but it’s got worse. 50million.uk is an attempt to engage with large numbers of people who normally ignore politics. We’ll be able to speak to them about the issues, give them some facts, and answer their questions.

‘We’re big underdogs in this campaign. The Government sets the rules. We don’t get millions from the big investment banks and we can’t spend millions of taxpayers’ money like the IN campaign. We have to innovate. If you want to win the amount of money that British taxpayers spend on the EU every single day, take a shot at our competition and spread the word to family and friends. After we Vote Leave and take back control, we’ll be able to spend the money we now waste on the EU on our priorities like the NHS.’

HOW TO ENTER

  • Go to 50million.uk and create an account with just your email address.
  • Pick the outcome of each game at the group stage and then the knockout matches all the way to the final.
  • Enter your contact details so we can get in touch if you win.
  • Deadline for entries is 20:00 on 9 June 2016, 24 hours before kick off of the first game at 20:00 on 10 June. It’s possible to change your entry up until this point once you’ve submitted it.
  • We’ll be back in touch if you win within 72 hours of the end of the final.

In 2014, the UK’s gross contributions to the EU budget were £19,107 million, or £52 million every day.

IDS: Government’s Latest Claims Are an Outrageous Attempt to Do Down People’s Pensions

 

Commenting on the Government’s claims about the consequences of leaving the EU for pensions, former Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith MP said:

 

‘This is an utterly outrageous attempt by the Government to do down people’s pensions and is little more than a cynical attempt to distract from the Government’s broken promises on immigration.

‘The biggest threat to British pensions is the European Commission’s proposals to undermine occupational pensions which the Government themselves have described as ‘damaging and reckless’. Meanwhile tax proposals from Eurozone countries will wipe billions off British assets hitting pension funds hardest.

‘These are measures that Britain is powerless to stop in the EU. Remember we have been outvoted again and again and lost each battle. After 30 years there is still no proper open market in services and the UK has lost out and continues to lose out.

‘The real risk in this referendum is to stay in the EU, handing more money and power to Brussels.’

PensionS_pay

 

 

  • Inflation will not rise if we Vote Leave. Sterling has appreciated since David Cameron called the vote. If we Vote Leave we can cut the current account deficit by £12.3 billion, stabilising sterling.

  • Asset prices will not fall if we Vote Leave. The Treasury accepts house prices will remain flat. The Bank of England has said there is no evidence that property or equity prices are being affected by the referendum.

  • The real threat to pensions is staying in the EU, as the Government accepts. In 2013, it described the Commission’s legislative proposals on occupational pensions as ‘damaging and reckless’.

  • The EU’s proposed financial transactions tax could wipe €4.4 billion off the value of UK household savings. This will hit pension funds and make it more expensive to save. George Osborne challenged this proposal in the European Court but lost.

 

Inflation will not rise if we Vote Leave.

There is no evidence the referendum is having an effect on sterling. The minutes of the most recent meeting of the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee state clearly that: ‘The sterling exchange rate had appreciated on the month’. Sterling has maintained its value since the announcement of the referendum and has in fact appreciated, from $1.4406/$ on 19 February to $1.4660/£ today. This suggests the prospects of a leave vote are not driving movements in the foreign exchange markets.

Leaving the EU will cut the current account deficit, reducing pressure on the currency and therefore prices. The current account deficit could be substantially reduced if we Vote Leave. In 2014 (the last year for which data are available) the UK recorded a £12.3 billion balance of payments deficit with the EU institutions. ONS figures released in March 2015 show the UK Government paid the EU institutions (net) £10.6 billion in 2015 (this figure excludes payments by the private sector to the EU institutions). This means we could substantially cut the current account deficit if we Vote Leave.

The Bank of England has said that the EU referendum has had a minor impact on inflation. In February 2016, the Bank of England’s inflation report did not see the EU referendum as a major issue in determining inflation, stating ‘Global growth has fallen back further over the past three months, as emerging economies have generally continued to slow and as the US economy has grown by less than expected. There have also been considerable falls in the prices of risky assets and another significant fall in oil prices’.

 

Asset prices will not fall if we Vote Leave.

The Treasury’s own report shows that house prices will stay the same if we leave the EU. The Treasury says that ‘at the end of the two years, house prices in the shock scenario would be around 10% lower relative to a vote to remain in the EU’. The OBR forecast is that house prices will increase by 12% in 2016 and 2017. This means house prices would remain flat.

The referendum is having no discernible impact on property transactions. The Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee has accepted that it was ‘unclear’ to what extent property transactions were being affected by the referendum.

The referendum is having no discernible impact on equity prices. The Monetary Policy Committee has also admitted that ‘the evidence on whether other asset prices, including market interest rates and equities, have been affected by the referendum is less clear’.

The real threat to pensions is remaining in the EU, as the Government accepts. In 2013, it described Commission proposals on occupational pensions as ‘damaging and reckless’.

The Government has noted proposed new EU regulations to harmonise regulation of occupational pensions are ‘damaging and reckless’.

The Government has said the proposals ‘could also impact on the organisation of national pension systems which remains a Member State responsibility’ and ‘will shift the balance of competence towards the EU in two important respects’. It has also said the proposed Directive would result in ‘maximum harmonisation’ and would extend the EU’s role into ‘consumer protection’.

It makes very little sense to harmonise pension regulation. There is no EU-wide market in ‘institutions for occupational retirement provision’ (IORPs). The European Commission’s figures show that 92% of occupational pension assets are held in funds in the UK, Ireland, Denmark and the Netherlands and that 40.6% of occupational pension providers, holding 53.0% of assets in the EU, are based in the UK

 

The EU’s proposed financial transactions tax could wipe €4.4 billion off the value of UK savings. This will hurt British pension funds.

An analysis by the City of London Corporation has found that the EU’s proposed financial transactions tax (when adopted under enhanced cooperation) could wipe €4.4 billion off the value of household savings in equity and debt holdings.

This will hit British pension funds and make saving for retirement more expensive.

George Osborne challenged this proposal in the European Court but lost the case.

Government Accepts EU Damages Our NHS

 

 

 

 

Commenting on the fact that the Government has been forced to amend its own Queen’s speech for the first time in 92 years, Peter Lilley said:

 

‘We are pleased the Government accepted our amendment calling for a Bill to protect our NHS from TTIP. But the refusal of the Minister replying to the debate to promise that the Bill or its contents will be published before the Referendum suggests something fishy is going on. If it is not published the only sure way to protect our NHS will be to vote to leave the EU.’

 

nhs corridor

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) is a trade deal being orchestrated between the EU and the US. The clandestine project has been formulated in deep secrecy, and will seek to eventually privatise the NHS if the UK remains in the EU.

TTIP seeks to reduce the regulatory barriers to trade for big business, food safety law, environmental legislation, banking regulations, health care and the sovereign powers of individual nations. The primary aim of TTIP is to open up Europe’s public health, education and water services to US companies. This will most certainly mean the privatisation of the NHS.

David Cameron and George Osborne, are championing the TTIP deal because it will mean the costly NHS will become a business, and bring lucrative deals to the corporate bosses. This essentially means the NHS will have to be a paid for service and no longer ‘free’.

The only way to save our NHS is to Vote Leave on June 23.

BSE Hiding From the Fact That We Cannot Control Immigration

 

Responding to claims by BSE [Britain Stronger in Europe] that leaving the EU would cause staff shortages in the public sector, Daniel Hannan MEP said:

 

‘The IN campaign are trying to distract from the out of control immigration system that we are locked into while we stay in the EU. If we Vote Leave we will be able to take back control of our borders and create a fairer immigration system that prioritises the skills that we need here in the UK and stops the open door policy which puts pressure on public services.’

 

Last year, 270,000 persons came to the UK from the EU, the equivalent of a city the size of Newcastle.

In 2015, 270,000 persons came to the UK from the EU. This is the equivalent of a city the size of Newcastle. This is up from 264,000 in 2014.

In 2015, net migration from the EU was 184,000. This is the equivalent of adding a city the size of Oxford to the UK population. This is up from 174,000 in 2014.

Total net migration in 2015 was 333,000, up from 313,000 in 2014.

Boris Johnson: The Only Way to Take Back Control of Immigration is to Vote Leave on 23 June

Boris Johnson: The Only Way to Take Back Control of Immigration is to Vote Leave on 23 June

 

 

 

 

STATEMENT BY BORIS JOHNSON ON IMMIGRATION STATISTICS

 

Last year, 270,000 people came to this country from the EU and net migration was 184,000. That means we are adding a population the size of Oxford to the UK every year just from EU migration.

 

Since 2004, 1.25 million people have been added to the population due to EU migration. That is bigger than the city of Birmingham.

 

I’ve always championed the great benefits that can come from immigration. I am the proud descendant of immigrants.I’ve seen how as Mayor of a great capital city, London has benefited in so many ways from migration. As Mayor I argued consistently for a more sensible visa policy that would welcome talented people from across the globe, people recruited on the basis of their skills.

 

Britain benefits from cultural influences from abroad, I’m pro-immigration, but above all I’m pro controlled immigration. People of all races and backgrounds in the UK are genuinely concerned about uncontrolled immigration and the pressure it’s placing on local services. People have every right to question why we can’t control our borders. We need to answer those concerns by taking back control of those borders.

 

But we must also face the fact that the system has spun out of control. We cannot control the numbers. We cannot control the terms on which people come and how we remove those who abuse our hospitality. This puts huge pressure on schools, hospitals and housing. It is exploited by some big companies that use immigration to keep wages down – and it is striking that the pay packets of FTSE 100 chief executives are now 150 times the average pay of people in their firms.

 

Worst of all, it is terrible for our democracy. People have watched Prime Minister after Prime Minister make promises on immigration that cannot be met because of the EU and this has deeply damaged faith in our democratic system.

 

The Prime Minister repeatedly promised that he would get a grip of this. The government told us that it would ‘keep our ambition of delivering annual net migration in the tens of thousands’. We were told that economic migrants from the EU would need to prove they had a job offer to come here – a pledge made by the Prime Minister, the Home Secretary and the Chancellor.

 

I am afraid that Brussels sent them packing, and in fact 77,000 have come since the Prime Minister made that promise.

 

The Government has failed because of the simple reality that inside the EU we cannot control immigration – it is literally impossible because we have no choice but to accept the principle of free movement and the European Court has ultimate control over our immigration policy. This has led to the absurd situation in which we stop highly qualified people coming from around the world who could contribute enormously to our society because we cannot stop millions of unskilled people coming here from the EU.

 

Even worse, the Prime Minister’s deal has given away control of immigration and asylum forever. His deal does nothing to solve this crisis and has not brought back a single power for the UK. The rogue European Court now controls not just immigration policy but how we implement asylum policy under the Charter of Fundamental Rights.

 

And, on top of all of this, new countries are in the queue to join the EU and the EU is extending visa-free travel to the border of Syria and Iraq. It is mad.

 

If you vote IN on 23 June, you are kissing goodbye permanently to control of immigration. You are voting for the current situation not only to continue but to get worse. You are voting for the European Court to be in charge of immigration and asylum policy permanently. You are giving away any chance of democratic legitimacy for immigration policy.

 

The only way to take back control of immigration is to Vote Leave on 23 June. The public should be able to vote for those who make the laws of this country including on immigration. It is intolerable to continue without democratic consent for Britain’s immigration policy.

 

That will be best for our public services, particularly the NHS. It will also allow us to have a fairer immigration system that is better for Britain, stops discriminating on the basis of where you come from, and instead allows us to pick people on the basis of skills.

 

Imagine how much stronger we will be, and how much more respected in the world, when we have an immigration policy that stops discriminating on the basis of whether you are an EU citizen and instead selects people on the basis of their contribution to this country.

 

The British public support immigration but they want it controlled by those who they elect. They are generous but feel their generosity has been abused. They are right. On the 23 June they will get their chance to take back control.

 

That’s the safer choice.

 

  • In 2015, 270,000 persons came to the UK from the EU, the equivalent of a city the size of Newcastle.
  • The Prime Minister has categorically failed to reduce net migration to the tens of thousands as he repeatedly promised.
  • The UK population is rapidly expanding as a result of migration from the EU. Since 2004, 1.25 million persons have been added to the population, more than the population of Birmingham.
  • In 2015, 77,000 persons came from the EU looking for work despite promises by David Cameron that EU migrants should have to have a job offer to come to the UK.
  • The Prime Minister did not even ask for this as part of the renegotiation as it was illegal under EU law.

eu migrants boat

The Prime Minister has categorically failed to reduce net migration to the tens of thousands as he repeatedly promised.

The 2010 Conservative Manifesto promised that ‘we will take steps to take net migration back to the levels of the 1990s – tens of thousands a year, not hundreds of thousands’.

In his 2014 conference speech, Cameron described: ‘Numbers that have increased faster than we in this country wanted at a level that was too much for our communities, for our labour markets. All of this has to change – and it will be at the very heart of my renegotiation strategy for Europe. Britain, I know you want this sorted so I will go to Brussels, I will not take no for an answer and when it comes to free movement – I will get what Britain needs’.

The 2015 Conservative Manifesto stated the Government would ‘keep our ambition of delivering annual net migration in the tens of thousands’.

In her speech to the 2015 Conservative Party conference in Manchester, the Home Secretary, Theresa May, said: ‘not all of the consequences can be managed, and doing so for many of them comes at a high price… But even if we could manage all the consequences of mass immigration, Britain does not need net migration in the hundreds of thousands every year… The evidence – from the OECD, the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee and many academics – shows that while there are benefits of selective and controlled immigration, at best the net economic and fiscal effect of high immigration is close to zero.  So there is no case, in the national interest, for immigration of the scale we have experienced over the last decade. Neither is it true that, in the modern world, immigration is no longer possible to control… The numbers coming from Europe are unsustainable and the rules have to change’.

 

The UK population is rapidly expanding as a result of migration from the EU. Over 1.25 million persons have been added to the UK population since 2004, more than the population of Birmingham.

Since 2004, 1,257,000 persons have been added to the UK population as a result of net migration from the EU. This is bigger than the population of Birmingham.

 

Last year, 77,000 persons came from the EU looking for work.

In 2015, 77,000 persons came to the UK from the EU who were looking for work, without a definite job offer. This is up from 63,000 in 2014.

If this rate of migration of jobseekers continues for a decade, 777,000 jobseekers will come to the UK as a result. This is greater than the population of Glasgow.

The Prime Minister, the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Home Secretary promised EU migrants should have to have a job offer to come to the UK.

In November 2014, the Prime Minister, David Cameron, promised that ‘we want EU jobseekers to have a job offer before they come here… So let’s be clear what all these changes taken together will mean. EU migrants should have a job offer before they come here’.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, has said: ‘What we’re going to address is this question of how freedom of movement operates in the 21st century. It was never envisaged that you would have such large numbers of people coming, people coming who don’t have job offers’.

The Home Secretary, Theresa May, has argued: ‘when it was first enshrined, free movement meant the freedom to move to a job, not the freedom to cross borders to look for work… we must take some big decisions, face down powerful interests and reinstate the original principle underlying free movement within the EU’.

 

The Prime Minister did not even ask for this as part of the renegotiation as it was illegal under EU law.

The renegotiation agreement notes that EU citizens are ‘entitled to reside… [in the UK] solely because of their job-search‘.

The demand that EU migrants must have a job offer was not contained in the Prime Minister’s letter to Donald Tusk of November 2015 or his Chatham House speech of the same day.

This is because it is illegal under EU law. As early as 1991, the European Court held that the ‘Treaty entails the right for nationals of Member States to move freely within the territory of the other Member States and to stay there for the purposes of seeking employment’.

EgyptAir MS804: You Are Not Safe Flying From Charles De Gaulle Airport

The torn shards of metal and shredded human bodies from the recovered wreckage of EgyptAir MS804 indicate a mid-air explosion, and this is most certainly another terrorist act.

The main reason for the French denial of terrorism is an obvious one, as the authorities would not want to be blamed for their porous security risk ridden system within the Schengen zone, especially when there is an EU referendum occurring in Britain.

MS804

The EU’s Schengen zone is a gift to terrorism, especially for groups like ISIS. Within the Schengen zone, terrorist groups can easily move arms, bombs and other materials designed to cause maximum civilian damage around EU countries. The utopian dream of a Schengen zone can only be a viable solution during a time of global peace, of which we have none at the moment.

The lax security measures at French airports are ideal for terrorists to exploit, and this is why you are putting your life at risk simply from entering an airport in France or Brussels.

After the Brussels airport bomb attack little or no measures were implemented to resolve serious security flaws, and this will continue as long as there is a Schengen zone in place.

Britain must vote leave on June 23 to take back control of our borders, to ensure our citizens are safe, and to stay as far away from the dangerous, irresponsible Schengen zone as possible whilst the world is in such turmoil.
