That scene when Heath signs the treaty is like that of the Senate in Star Wars ("Revenge of the Sith", I think)...democracy died to rapturous applause. The UK should leave and NEVER be part of such a project ever again. It has lost us money, time and effort from our domestic issues. Charles deGualle was doing us a favour when he said "Non!" to our membership. The question remains: Why were politicians SO keen for us to join the Common Market? (Did Britain contain forces that were too un-ruly? Did they see it as a way to overcome the divisive influences in Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Spain?)
Congradulations to my Brothers and Sisters across the pond, you now have your country back and are under self rule again. Happy independence day from your cousins in America.
The EU is a an administrative and bureaucratic establishment which makes laws to distribute and regulate markets. It is a structure to protect the wealth of the established elite and to regulate everyone else. We are all European idealists, but the EU is very far from the ideal of what Europe should be.
Me too. However sadly he lived in America . Peter Hitchens is good though and I think more people are waking up to what being a member of the EU really means . Taken us decades to catch on , through slight of hand by so many politicians both left and right! Time to leave Federal Europe we never voted for this. The last vote was to join the common market. Time to recover our sovereignty.
I preferred him when he was in Oasis and spoke with a Manc accent. This is what happens when you hang out with people like Tony "Blood on his hands" Blair.
"Brexit" was never a left or right issue... it was about Right and wrong"..... Why can't we all get on as single, independent constitutional states??...
The United Kingdom is debatably us Americans' strongest, closest ally. We share so much history, such a strong foundation for free society. Sticking with the E.U. will mean dependence on a federation I cannot support. Please exit.

Too many people mouthing off about the Brexit subject without any meaningful background research. Along with Hitch, Mr.Farages interviews & podcasts tell it like it is, also the Moneyweek channel on You Tube has some very interesting interviews with a variety of educated Eurosceptics.

Thankyou
24:10 I can't trust a guy named David who doesn't watch Top Gear on Dave.
I trust Hitchens though
What memories H.M.S. Victory brings back to me. Working on her was a privilege and a pleasure, but I miss that time even though it was in the waning days of the Royal Navy. So much has changed since the early 1960s, Victory still stands tall and proud of glories long since past.
This reminds me that I always thought Heath was an idiot!
If Portillo was still in politics he would be PM
The Westminster parliament is a "trusted institution"?
I remember that Heath never gave us a vote on membership, he just took us in without asking anyone....
