The process of Asquis Communautaire is embedded in the treaties.
Letter to Telegraph - published Saturday 22 Oct
Sir
MPs and others supporting the option of renegotiating British membership of the EU forget one crucial fact.
The process of Asquis Communautaire is embedded in the treaties.
It is a one-way ratchet. Once the EU has taken “competence” over an area of government, it cannot be returned to the member states.
Our only realistic alternative to membership is to walk away, take our billions with us, and wish them well. If that is how Europeans want to govern themselves, that is a matter for them.
We were far better off as a global player – and can be again.
Europeans are our neighbours. They should be our friends. They cannot be masters in someone else’s house.
