the number 10 team pushing the Prime Minister's Brexit plan keep telling us
How resolute Mrs. May is. How determined she is.
How strong she is
They are trying to paint a picture of Mrs. May as today's Mrs Thatcher
well here's the problem with that
in 1990 Prime Minister Thatcher stood at the dispatch box and
replied to the European Commission's demands for more powers over Britain
with the famous and furious
no no no
now listen to Mrs. May in the Commons
Forget Thatcher what you hear is today's Ted Heath
Heath sold the European Economic Community to the British people as a free trade deal
he knew it wasn't
He lied he knew the EEC as it was then called was meant from the start to lead
to the unification of policies in every field economic political social
commercial tariffs and fiscal policy he knew it meant the UK losing our ancient
sovereignty to the emerging euro empire and we know that because years after
Heath bluffed Britain into the Common Market Foreign Office briefing papers
emerged which showed every British government was warned from the moment
the Treaty of Rome was signed in 1957 so our governments were warned again and
again and again about the aims of the EEC right until the moment he signed a
treaty taken the UK into the Common Market in speaking to the Commons in
speaking to the people Heath dissembled he misled he left out the important
parts of the future the EEC planned for itself and of course for us the parts
the British people at the time your parents and mine would never have agreed
to now we have Brandon Lewis the Conservative
Party chairman and spiritual heir to Heath telling all party members that the
draft deal and these are his exact words delivers on the referendum and will see
us take back control of our money laws and borders not in the Tory Chairman's
lifetime it won't and he knows it he says it will end freedom of movement
no it won't he says it will end the rule of Brussels no it won't he says we will
leave the EU no we won't look I'm a barrister I've read all the 580 pages
I've trade for years to be able to read this kind of stuff I can tell you for
certain that no the deal won't end freedom of movement it will tie us to
the EU restrictions and EU controls for as long as the EU once and we won't be
able to get out and since it will bleed tens of billions of pounds more out of
our taxpayers during all of those extra years of control it will not let us take
back control of our money in short mrs. May is trying to push through this deal
using the Heath playbook the deal is a swine to read it is full of cross
references and technicalities and that is no accident it was designed to be
unintelligible to you the voter may and her Tory establishment are counting on
the decent hard-working men and women of this country to be too busy to give
themselves headaches trying to crack the legal deal that way the prohi you Tories
can hope to get the poisonous steel passed in some form then in years to
come as each surrender each poisonous
surrender of the agreement comes into force they can turn to you the voters
and say it was all in the deal we told you we showed you and guess what you
agreed to it so whilst Theresa May is Prime Minister Ted Heath walks amongst
us like the undead at another forty years
of a zombie Britain living but um free maybe about to descend on us
