Save our Sovereignty
By Sir John Redwood on June 16, 2025
Facts4EU have launched a campaign to save our sovereignty, with several other groups in support. The give away of Chagos, the invitation to the EU/Spain to police the Gibraltar border , and the offer to the EU that we will lay them money to enforce more of their trade and farming laws on us all point to a government that does not value our sovereignty.
A party with a big majority in Parliament has every right to impose more laws, put up our taxes and waste our money if that's what they want to do.They will pay the price at the next election if they ignore the criticism and opposition voices. Any if these things can be cancelled or amended by a new government after the next election.
What they are not allowed to do is to give powers of self government away without consent. It needs a referendum to give powers away to the EU after the clear result in 2016. The Labour party did not signal its surrenders to international pressures and bad advice over these matters in its Mainfesto.
Well done to Facts4EU and the other groups who are promoting thus campaign, Stand up for Our Sovereignty. I say Save Our Sovereignty. We all say SOS.
Ed. John should call The Teds and meet Robin for dinner.
