- Are you a bit confused with the Alternative Vote Referendum on May 5th?
There is an interesting conflict of increasing ferocity being worked up between the Cameroonies and the Cleggers over the AV Referendum.
Could it be nothing more than a bit of cynical play acting to con us lumpen public and divert the attention of the media away from two very significant aspects.
1. For over 60 years the Liberal Party has campaigned vigorously for Proportional Representation. The Political Elite and the media do not mention PR now - only Alternative Voting. The only alternative on offer as it is safest option for the coalition.
Proportional Representation has been quietly ruled out by the coalition and no longer mentioned. This is because under PR there is now the very real probability that UKIP would gain far more MPs than the Lib Dems, possibly of even more than the Labour Party. There is no way that the Political Elite will dare risk that.
2. This Referendum may well be pointless anyway. Brussels already makes 70-80% of British law that completely bypasses Westminster and besides the Lisbon Treaty came into force on 1st Jan 2009.
The ultimate aim of this treaty is for the EU to be a single nation of Europe ruled from Brussels. All the existing nations are to be completely absorbed into it and England will no longer exist. You will be European not English. (Indeed, as of now the legal and political status of England is very ambiguous and it is certainly being steadily degraded).
The Lisbon Treaty paves the way for the complete sidelining of Westminster and UK political parties sometime in the future.
