You will be reading the destruction of your Country-how the EU can impose fines in this Country, and your country as you knew it gone.

This is just a very tiny part of one very large bill-like a little dot in the midst of a very long Bill that changes the governing of this Country from top to bottom.

And we-the people- let it happen, all because so many people believed our Politicians, yet they never fought in the last war to keep this Country free, they never prayed that the falling bombs would miss where you were sheltering, and sadly, these people were never taught at school about our Constitution and yet they signed Treaties that even the Judges had to look to before they looked or remembered we had a Constitution of our own.

But there was no point in that Constitution at all, if it wasn't used-or isn't going to be used- or put before everything that was to come, a Constitution that all our MP's should have built upon, not destroyed.

So many people now have only ever known rule by foreigners. And education over the years-well there is no need for me to write anymore is there?

The Localism Bill is pages and pages long, but if you can make top and tail of understanding this-well it will have been worth while writing (typing) it out long hand.

I cannot and never will understand why ANY of our Government Ministers are doing what they are doing now, for they know, without doubt, that if they continue in the EU this country will be nothing more than Regions of the European Union, and like the Constitution of the USA this country and all the people in it will never be free again, for they will be tied into the Union forever in the same way and by the same method that all the once separate States are now tied into the USA. EXCEPT that the EU will become one BIG STATE ONLY. Those that are in Parliament now will never know peace or happiness ever again, and sadly neither will any of the people in this Country for as time goes by they will yearn for the freedom that will be gone forever. Between them, they will have helped to destroy their own Country.
