I remember a few years ago seeing, as eveyone else did, the signs on the road sides around Ireland stating that a particular road project was 'Funded by the EU' which everyone, including myself though was great.

EU destroying Ireland one step at a time

I remember a few years ago seeing, as eveyone else did, the signs on the road sides
around Ireland stating that a particular road project was 'Funded by the EU' which everyone, including myself though was great.

It wasn't untill later that someone pointed out the fact that the Government of the time had handed over what now amounts to billions of Euro of our fishing rights around the same time that these signs where being erected.

Since that day I have witnessed the constant step by step takeover of Ireland, and the democratic rights of the People of Ireland being usurped by EU dictators.

Remember the definition of a dictator is a person who wields power over a nation, who is unelected by the population of that nation, and who's actions directly, and most times, badly affect the lives of that same population. So the reader's of this article can decided if the term 'dictator' correctly fits the bill.

A couple of recent examples have really driven home this fact in crystal clear clarity.
Like the fact that our countries economic policy and budgets are part controlled, along with the IMF, by the EU, and that the EU are now dictating to the Irish Government who has the right to stay in Ireland as regards immigrant children born in Ireland.

The people who fought on 1916 did so so that their children could live in a free, independent and sovereign nation, but instead their offspring are having their lives affected by people not elected by them, and more worringly, not accountable to them either.

But what gauls me, and most likely them, the most, is the fact the people of Ireland are accepting these constant slaps in the face from the EU (and now the IMF) devoid of any signs of fighting back.

The one thing that the previous government and the current government have proven without a doubt is that they were / are merely the caretaker managers of Ireland, and the final decisions are being made by others who were never giving a mandate by the people to rule their affairs, and who do not have the right to do so either.

I remember a line from the movie 'Predator' in which Arnie proclaims, quote. 'If we do not make a stand there will be no one left to go to the Chopper', unquote.
If the people of Ireland do not make a stand now there will be nothing of value or substance left in Ireland worth talking about.

And finally. To love your country, and to have some nationalistic pride, is not a crime. Just in the same manner as putting a burglar alarm in your home and a lock on your gate at night time can not be regarded Anti - Social, as some might want you to think.

The people of Ireland have the real power. Numbers. But we have to put aside our silly differences and stand together in order to purge this plague we find has engulfed us.
