POOR BRITAIN

We have all known for many years now that Britain is subservient to its new masters in the European Union, despite Conservative and Labour Governments trying to give the impression they are in charge, but what could be more humiliating for the no longer sovereign British Government than being told by the EU to get its budget deficit in order.

There is no secret in the fact that Gordon Brown was just as bad as a Chancellor as he is as a Prime Minister, and the fact he and his Government have created a fiscal nightmare in this country, but for the EU to start telling him and his Ministers to get their acts together is a real slap in the face and more evidence that those we elect ar no longer in control.

Reported in the Daily Telegraph on the 24th June 2009, it stated that “Britain has been censured by Brussels for the size of its budget deficit and ordered to bring it back under control immediately.”

This is a real embarrassment for Chancellor Alistair Darling and Gordon Brown who have been told by the EU Commission that it had lumped Britain alongside Latvia and Ireland as having the biggest increase in public debt and felt these were the most worrying figures.

Poor Britain, it just hasn’t learned that it can’t do as it pleases and its head boys have been dragged before the EU headmaster for a good dressing down.
