Regarding your article last week 'UKIP and BNP votes rise in Euro election', my comments refer to the former. Have the British voters realised what our Parliamentary members have voted us into, over the past 30 years, by way of approval, by signature to the demands of the European Union Treaties?
Citizen approval has been given by one referendum vote only to Treaty of Rome/EEC dated 1957.
UKIP has the support of 1620 per cent of those who voted with no representation in Parliament (please correct me if they have one seat).
The Government and the opposition could not muster 50 per cent of the votes between them. So nearly one fifth of strong-minded voters have no say in Parliament.
Our political leaders who are responsible for signing these treaties, now find that they have lost 12 MEP seats to UKIP who seem to have no strategy other than total withdrawal from Europe.
The Prime Minister will no doubt return from the EU Constitution Conference trying to ring the bells of success, but if he does the price paid will be his possible agreement to the Prime Minister of Belgium, Guy Verhofstadt, being made president.
I think the message from the public to Mr Blair is we need a general election. He acts as if he is president but is only in power so long as the majority of voters support him.
