E-business trade association Eema has revealed plans to make national identity card services in the European Union transferable across member states.
The initiative was unveiled at the Information Security Solutions Europe (ISSE) conference in Warsaw last week and christened Stork. It is intended to bring national governments together to tackle non-standardisation of electronic identity systems across EU countries, according to Eema’s executive director, Roger Dean. The deadline for this is 2010, when the EU’s European eID Management Framework comes into force.
“It’s a three-year project and the UK government is playing a significant part,” Dean said. “But each government has its own agenda. You have to show the benefits to government, citizens and businesses [to get buy-in].”
Supporters say a pan-European ID card agreement could provide help in migration between member states, and accessing social security services, medical prescriptions and pension payments. It could also ease cross-border student enrolment in colleges, as well as provide identification in lieu of a driving licence.
However, experts warned that there is a long way to go before the framework is assured of success. “The technology to achieve the goal of allowing electronic ID cards to work in multiple states is available but has never been commercialised on this scale before,” argued Dan Blum of analyst Burton Group.
Blum argued that commercial organisations should persevere with their identity-based projects despite the problems many encounter early on.
“The elephant in the road is trust and how you audit your partners,” Blum told delegates. “But the incentives are transactional revenue, new business opportunities and lower admin costs.”
Blum recommended firms think about the SAML 2.0 standard as the basis for projects because it has the most industry buy-in, but warned that interoperability issues may still arise. “We need to pressure the standards organisations and the vendor groups so there is no friction,” he added.
Also at ISSE, experts rejected the suggestion that vendors should be held legally liable for product faults, as recommended by a recent Lords report on internet security.
“Liability and legislation can have unintended consequences for innovation, competitiveness, product acceptance and the supplier ecosystem,” said Steve Lipner, Microsoft senior director of security engineering.

Large organisations in the UK are being offered a new service that could be the ultimate in physical security – building surveillance via satellite.
The service is the work of two companies, Scyron and Datasat, which have spied a need among large multi-nationals and government agencies to secure remote buildings and assets remotely. Scyron supplies the software analysis element, which can assess threat using satellite imagery, while Datasat has access to a satellite network to supply input for the application.
Scyron - which invested in its partner Datasat in July - uses the example of a shipping company watching over its fleet in any part of the world. If suspicious incidents are recorded, the system can adjust bandwidth to ensure the efficient transfer of images back to its monitoring HQ. It can also be tied into biometric and audio security systems as an extra layer.
Such a service doesn’t come cheap, but then again neither does any remote security analysis. The company claims its approach will still save time and money when compared to manual incident analysis.
In addition to maritime and transport, other industries that might be interested include border controls, utilities, and even the military, though the latter might be expected to have their own systems in place for such security.
“The system gives a solution to the headache of permanently manned controls at numerous locations across the world. It is more targeted as it only alerts to suspicious activity but also in conjunction with satellite – it reaches the parts which others just cannot reach,” said Phil Emmel, Datasat’s managing director.
What the company describes as an ‘entry-level’ system would set an organisation back 50,000 euros, but an accurate cost would depend on the number and type of sites being secured, the company said. The service was demonstrated at the Alarmes, Protection Securite Expo, held this week in Paris.

A federal court on Wednesday struck down two provisions of the Patriot Act dealing with searches and intelligence gathering, saying they violate the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches and seizures with regard to criminal prosecutions.

Brandon Mayfield, left, and public defender Steven Wax tell of the dismissal of the case against Mayfield in 2004.
“It is critical that we, as a democratic nation, pay close attention to traditional Fourth Amendment principles,” wrote Judge Ann Aiken of the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon in her 44-page decision. “The Fourth Amendment has served this nation well for 220 years, through many other perils.”
The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review, set up to review wiretap applications in intelligence cases under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, or FISA, “holds that the Constitution need not control the conduct of criminal surveillance in the United States,” Aiken wrote.
“In place of the Fourth Amendment, the people are expected to defer to the executive branch and its representation that it will authorize such surveillance only when appropriate.”
The government “is asking this court to, in essence, amend the Bill of Rights, by giving it an interpretation that would deprive it of any real meaning. The court declines to do so,” Aiken said.
The Justice Department was reviewing the decision, said spokesman Dean Boyd.
The ruling was a response to a lawsuit filed against the federal government by Brandon Mayfield, a Portland, Oregon, attorney who was wrongly arrested for alleged involvement in the 2004 Madrid train bombings.
The federal government later apologized to Mayfield and settled part of Mayfield’s lawsuit for $2 million. But Mayfield was permitted to keep pursuing the portions of his lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the Patriot Act.
Mayfield claimed in the suit that his home and law offices were secretly broken into by the FBI, his clients’ files at his office were searched, his business and personal computers were secretly copied, his telephone was wiretapped and his home was bugged.
Mayfield said he was “excited and happy” with the ruling.
“This, to me, is not so much personal,” he said. “I think it’s just the right thing to do. It was the right thing to continue to challenge the constitutionality of the Patriot Act.”
“This is an example of the judicial branch doing what it should do, and that’s to be a check and balance for the legislative and executive branch of government,” he said. “I feel wonderful today, because the Fourth Amendment has been restored to its rightful place, and the balance between liberty and security is balanced again.”
Mayfield’s attorneys — Gerry Spence, Elden Rosenthal and Michelle Longer Eder — lauded the ruling.
“Judge Aiken, in striking down the challenged provisions of the Patriot Act, has upheld both the tradition of judicial independence and our nation’s most cherished principle of the right to be secure in one’s own home,” they said in a written statement. “We are relieved that the Bill of Rights can be honored and preserved even in times of perceived crisis.”
Aiken ruled that FISA, as amended by the Patriot Act, permits the government to conduct surveillance and searches targeting Americans without satisfying the probable-cause standard in the Fourth Amendment.
“Prior to the amendments [to FISA], the three branches of government operated with thoughtful and deliberate checks and balances — a principle upon which our nation was founded,” Aiken wrote.
But the Patriot Act, she said, eliminated “the constitutionally required interplay between executive action, judicial decision and Congressional enactment.”
“For over 200 years, this nation has adhered to the rule of law — with unparalleled success. A shift to a nation based on extra-constitutional authority is prohibited, as well as ill-advised,” she wrote.
Aiken noted that FISA does not require that the subject of a search be notified, although the Fourth Amendment ordinarily does. In addition, she said, the Fourth Amendment requires particularity — authorities seeking a search warrant, for example, must list what they are looking for and where they are looking for it.
Named to the bench in 1997 by President Clinton, Aiken is considered one of the more liberal judges on the federal bench in Oregon.

Editors Note: The article below is a perfect example of thow government and mainstream media propaganda is causing paranoia and creating a race division.
By Ahmed J Versi
“He’s a terrorist. I want to see a white doctor,” a newly registered patient is alleged to have said about her Muslim doctor, Dr Zia Hussein, soon after the failed attacks in Glasgow and London.
The incident took place in a doctor’s surgery in Oxhey, Hertfordshire, on July 3.
The receptionist called Dr Hussain for help as she did not know what to do. When he came out of his consulting room to the reception area, the patient allegedly shouted at Dr Hussain in front of other patients, “You are a terrorist. You are not fit to be a doctor. You don’t know your job.” The doctor asked her to leave the surgery.
Dr Hussain told The Muslim News that she was his patient and had re-registered after returning from holiday on June 26. Then, Dr Hussain relates, she made some racist remarks, like, “I don’t trust foreigners. They are not trained here. I only trust white doctors who are trained here.”
Dr Hussain said he was shocked at the patient’s outburst. He had had no problems at this surgery before with any patient. “I believe what she said about me being a terrorist is because of the recent arrests of the doctors who were involved in the failed terrorist attacks,” he said.

Senior members of Lebanese, Palestinian organizations vow to stand by Damascus if Jewish state launches war. ‘Doors will be open which have not been open before. Israel will pay a heavy price,’ they warn
Roee Nahmias
“If Israel dares to make an adventurous move against Syria, it will pay a heavy price,” a member of Hizbulla’s political council warned Thursday.In an interview with the Nazareth-based Kul al-Arab newspaper scheduled to be published on Friday, Dr Ahmad Malli warned Israel against considering an attack on Syria, saying that the Lebanese organization would respond to such an offensive with full force.
“I believe that things have changed,” Malli explained. “The times when everyone was afraid of the Israeli threats are over. The Zionist entity knows more than anyone that the price of such adventurousness would be heavy, and the Israelis know the price more than anyone.
“Since 2006 we have begun a new stage in the Arab-Israeli conflict and have demonstrated this during the Israeli aggression in July (the Second Lebanon War). If anyone wants to make an adventurous move, it will baer responsibility for this aggression.”
Asked whether he was referring to aggression both against Lebanon and against Syria, Malli replied, “We are all in one Middle East.”
Ahmad Jibril, secretary-general of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, also warned Thursday that if Israel attacked Syria or Hizbullah his organization would also respond.
In an interview with the al-Hadat newspaper, which is published in Arabic in the Galilee city of Tamra, Jibril warned that Israel planned to invade Syria in coordination with Arab countries. The interview is scheduled to be published Friday.
According to Jibril, if such an attack takes place, Iran and Hizbullah will stand by Damascus and respond in full force.
“I believe that the Israelis and the Americans will carry out attacks against Syria as soon as possible, in other words in the near future. I do not reject the possibility that the Israeli aircraft will attack us – the Palestinians in Syria.
“I also do not reject the possibility that they will attack the Palestinian headquarters in Damascus. We, the Palestinians in Syria, will not stand idly by. We will be at the front posts. I also believe that Hizbullah will take part in this war,” he said.
Jibril added that Israel’s plan was to isolate Syria from Iran and the rest of its allies, after identifying it as the weakest link.
“I stress that the plan to isolate Syria will not go by easily,” he declared. “I am certain that this war will last for months and will open doors which have not been opened in the past.”

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President George W. Bush directed deputies on Thursday to devise a plan to shorten airline delays, an initiative that could force carriers to change schedules and pay more to use crowded airports at the busiest times of the day.
“We’ve got a problem. We understand there’s a problem and we’re going to address the problem,” Bush said after meeting Transportation Secretary Mary Peters in the Oval Office.
Transportation Department figures show that U.S. airline delays are on a record pace for 2007. For the year to July, delays surpassed the 1 million mark, up more than 20 percent from the same period a year ago.
Nearly a third of flights are late or canceled and more than 50,000 through July had ground delays of between one and five hours, a 40 percent increase over the same period a year ago.
Some aviation experts, lawmakers and regulators blame airline overscheduling for delays while others say the government has failed to upgrade the aging air traffic system to handle the millions of arrivals and departures each year. Airlines scheduled a record 647,000 flights in July alone.
The focus of the White House discussion was congestion in the New York area, which handles a third of U.S. air traffic. Delays in New York can affect flights throughout the country.
Of immediate concern are delays at John F. Kennedy airport, which is growing fast and is a major point for international service. The most concrete step to emerge from the White House meeting was a decision for government planners to meet with the airlines to discuss scheduling changes at JFK.
Peters told reporters after meeting Bush that she preferred a cooperative approach but the Federal Aviation Administration could limit flights at JFK if necessary.
Any action at JFK would most affect JetBlue Airways Corp. , which is based there, and Delta Air Lines, which operates two terminals. American Airlines operates international and some domestic service at JFK.
Delays have been a chronic problem for the industry for nearly a decade, interrupted only by the aviation downturn that followed the hijacking attacks of 2001. Past efforts by airlines and regulators to reduce or rearrange schedules at some of the most congested airports have provided temporary relief at best.
Mike Boyd, an industry consultant, said the steps announced by the Bush administration are too late and only “dumb down” the system.
“Every flight is full, airlines are meeting the nation’s demands. The air traffic system is behind,” Boyd said, adding that airlines had failed over the years to forcefully demand improvements in air traffic services.
U.S. officials will study the concept of charging airlines more to use crowded airports at the busiest times of the day. Recommendations are due in December.
The Transportation Department has already proposed congestion pricing pilot programs at 15 airports as part of legislation to modernize the air traffic system.
Airlines oppose congestion pricing, saying it will only raise fares as extra costs are passed along to consumers.
Peters did not discount the possibility that government action could affect airline business models, such as the trend toward using more regional jets in place of larger planes.
“We don’t necessarily want to say you can’t do that, but we do want to say at the end of the day we have to reduce congestion and delay. Everything is on the table,” Peters told reporters.
Airlines quickly note shortcomings in the aging government-run air traffic system and the impact on operations in the New York area of corporate jets, a growing preference for business travelers.
“The bottom line is that there is not much we can do once an aircraft leaves the gate and enters onto the taxiway. At that point, we come under the control of an antiquated air traffic control system,” Bob Reding, executive vice president for operations at American Airlines, told a Senate hearing on Thursday.
American, Delta Air Lines and other carriers said they have already tweaked their schedules at peak hours at some airports, adjusted the time that planes sit at gates, and streamlined maintenance to ensure aircraft meet their schedules.

1. The Queen has signed 6 of the 7 EU Treaties.
2. The 6 treaties define and build the EU as an unelected dictatorship.
3. The EU’s laws give it the powers of a police state.
4. The 7th EU treaty will complete the abolition of Britain as a nation - the Queen could sign it in as little as two years.
Shouldn’t we repeal the 1972 European Communities Act now
before we are imprisoned permanently inside?
5. Thirty three years inside the EU - have you noticed how our democracy is being withdrawn?
The EU has already denied us that most basic of human rights - the right to vote against the EU and to keep our own nation. A majority of us don’t want to be in the EU. We are being forced in against our will. Do you feel you’ve become powerless, unable to influence events, or your vote is worth less? The six treaties are gradually removing our democracy; and 70% of the laws now passed by our Parliament are EU laws, not ours. Isn’t the real reason people have lost interest in politics precisely because the EU has taken away our ability to change things?
Common law, where the government was our servant, is now largely replaced by the EU’s Corpus Juris, which puts the government above the law, and we don’t participate. We have already lost most of our rights (including habeas corpus). The power of government grows unchecked, as does that of large corporations. Politicians continuously lie about the EU, pretending its not significant.
6. Massive EU corruption
The EU’s auditors have found the fraud is so widespread they’ve refused to sign off the EU’s accounts for each of the last ten years. Whistleblowers like Marta Andreason, the EU Budget Director, who in 2005 found the EU couldn’t account for 95% of its £66 billion budget, are simply fired for telling the truth.
7.The bribing of our Politicians by the EU
Europe works by bribing politicians with huge salaries and expenses to vote for Europe, against the best interests of their own voters.
As a result all three parties are in favour of the EU - Westminster acts like a one party state of politicians: the Lib-Lab-Con. The parties are run top down and implement the policy of their leaderships, not that of their members. (unfortunately UKIP is run in the same way). If you have voted for the Labs, Cons or Lib-Dems since 1969, you have voted for the EU dictatorship.
8. EU corruption is now exploding through our Civil Service, our local government, and our 7,000 quangos.
A shadow EU government lives inside our bureaucracy, headquartered in the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM.) It includes many parts of government including the RDA and the Regional Assemblies. Common Purpose, an EU organisation, the UK branch also headquartered in the ODPM, has members across many government organisations including some city and county councils, the Land Registry, the police and the NHS, which it is destroying from within.
Common Purpose is the glue that enables fraud to be committed across these government departments, most of it lining the pockets of politicians and bureaucrats. It often involves the sale of public assets such as land to friends of politicians or their businesses. (The RDA -The EU Regional Development Agency, is a major player in this type of fraud.) And the handing out of plum government non jobs with big salaries and expenses to members of Common Purpose, all of it involving the theft of our money as taxpayers. The Chief Executive Officer of Common Purpose is Julia Middleton of the ODPM.
9. Businesses closing under EU regulation
The EU’s 107,000 regulations will close hundreds of thousands more businesses when fully enforced, and control our private lives more closely than those of Soviet citizens. (In a Parliamentary answer to Lord Stoddart in January 2003, the government admitted there were 101,811 EU regulations)
10. The EU costs us £200 billion pa, 20% of our economy
According to the government’s Better Regulation Task Force, complying with EU regulations now costs our economy over £100 billion a year. Economists say we lose £80 billion pa by associating with the EU’s inferior economies. The EU took our fishing industry, which costs us £5 billion pa. EU damage to other industries (like forcing us to close the Rover Car Co) a further £20 billion. Our EU contribution is £10 billion.
Before we joined the EU we had an even balance of trade with them. Now EU regulations have fixed it so we lose £22 billion year trading with the EU on our balance of payments. We’d be enormously more wealthy if we left.
11. Our counties to be abolished
The Queen signed the 1992 Maastricht Treaty, which adopts the EU Regionalisation Plan. This will abolish England’s 48 counties and replace them with 9 European regions, each with their own Regional Capital, which reports directly to Brussels, not to Westminster. This effectively obliterates the country of England. For example the County of Cornwall is replaced by the South West Region, which stretches from Lands End and includes Gloucestershire and Wiltshire; its regional capital is Exeter. As this move is unpopular it is being kept low-key and will not be implemented until the seventh treaty is signed, when we lose our right to object.
12. The deliberate destruction of our way of life, standards and morals
From Sunday trading, where large stores force staff to work Sundays for derisory pay - or they don’t get a job, to the government’s deliberate undermining of the family, to sex education for the under 13’s, to children being given obscene homework, its all traceable via our compliant government back to the EU over the last 34 years. While inside atheist Europe, British Christianity has almost died out; safety on our streets and a great chunk of civilised life has left with it.
13. The EU has controlled our immigration since 1997
The Amsterdam Treaty handed complete control of our immigration to the EU. The EU increased the numbers of immigrants from 30,000 a year to 200,000 a year. That’s why house prices have been screaming up. Politicians and huge corporations like immigration - with thousands of immigrants available on low pay, corporations can impose the minimum wage on millions. Politicians then lie that they can’t get British workers to do dirty jobs. The truth is they won’t offer a decent wage to compensate for unpleasant work, and instead use immigrants at £5 an hour.
Michael Howard was lying on the 24th January 2005 when he said he’d fix immigration - as Prime Minister, he’d have had no control over it whatsoever. Immigration hurts our existing immigrants first - new immigrants move into their areas, decreasing the wages and increasing the pressure on housing.
If the seventh Treaty is signed, we lose our right to withdraw and Britain ceases to be a nation. Like the other six, it only requires two signatures: the Prime Ministers, and the Queen’s.
Examples of how our lives have changed since we’ve been in the EU:In the EU, (which means in Britain) government is above the law.
The EU’s corpus juris now pervades right through our legal system. A policeman was let off by magistrates this year (2005) for driving his private car at 159 mph in Ludlow, Shrops. Under Corpus Juris the government are above the law and cannot be prosecuted The judge ruled correctly under EU law. 45,000 police officers got off speed cameras in this way in 2004, although their speeding killed 44 innocent people. (Daily Mail 27.12.05.)
We have lost the right to freedom
The EU arrest warrant (signed by the Queen on 18th November 2003) allows us to be arrested without charge and held indefinitely with no right to see a solicitor, make a phone call, or even a right to a trial. You can simply disappear.
Under the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act (SOCPA) 2005, we can now be arrested and held in the cells by any police officer for any petty offence, like dropping litter. Before it had to be an offense that carried a 5 year jail term. This also applies to all of the EU’s 107,000 regulations. Do you know them all?
The Civil Contingences Act 2004 allows government to confiscate anything you possess permanently; you have no right to object. This includes your house. It also gives government the right to forceably move its population around to different locations; you can be left with no place to call your own and live like a refugee. The only check and balance here is a Minister just needs to utter the words “This is a national emergency.” If a demonstration or strike government doesn’t like is being organised, they can cut off all communications in a town - phones, mobiles, the internet, TV, and block all access to that town including closing roads and railways. It has all the powers and more of Hitler’s Enabling Act of 1933.
We have lost the right to free speech
At the Labour Party conference the police held an 82 year old man, Walter Woolfgang, and denied him access to the conference under the EU’s “anti terrorist” legislation because he had shouted the word “nonsense” at Jack Straw, who was speaking about Iraq. Terrified the true nature of the laws they have passed on behalf of the EU was escaping too early, the Labour Party stopped the police and begged the man to return to conference.
On October 25th 2005 Miss Maya Evans was arrested under the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005, for a lone protest at the Cenotaph by reading out the names of the 97 British soldiers killed in the Iraq war. She was arrested by no less than 14 police officers and found guilty at Bow Street Magistrates Court on the 8th December 2005.
Would you hand over our nation, to be ruled by a foreign power, with oppressive laws like these, ? That’s what’s happening.
We have lost the right to protest
These laws make protest very difficult; if we did hold a General Strike and blockade Westminster it would now require some bravery: the powers the EU has demanded from our government enable it to respond in a way similar to the Chinese government’s in Tiaanamen Square should it so wish.
It is no coincidence that since 2004, all MP’s offices in Westminster are guarded by police with machine guns, inside and out.
The Governments “terrorism” deception
All these new EU laws, including massive “anti terrorism” acts (recently 2000, 2001, 2005) were passed with the pretence they were only directed at terrorists, or in the case of Asbos, ruffians who terrorise the streets. In each case they are used far more often against ordinary law abiding people, particularly to suppress dissent. (91% of those detained under Terrorism Acts are innocent and have been improperly arrested. Most of the remainder are charged with offences that have nothing to do with terrorism, but cover up over zealous arrests).
We have lost the right to life
Under EU law the “Shoot to kill” policy did not need democratic authorisation. Just two senior police officers authorised the police to kill British people. A democratic vote by Parliament was not required, but even that would not have legalised the killing under British common law. A recent victim was an innocent Brazilian, Jean de Menezes, shot dead in Stockwell underground station, even though he was being held down by police officers at the time of the execution. The police used dum-dum bullets, outlawed under the Geneva Convention because they blow a man to pieces inside.
The police can no longer be convicted for killing innocent people - Philip Prout shot at Lewannick in East Cornwall is just one of 30 people shot dead by police since 1992 when corpus juris crept in. At least one was shot in the back; most were no threat to anyone. Not once since 1992 has a policeman been convicted of any crime for these murders.
Have you noticed this growing police state?
In addition to many more laws than those above, add the 107,000 regulations, and whole bureaucracies such as VOSA building up networks of cameras and databases to record our movements and criminalise us when we can’t comply. Persecution is no longer confined to motorists; under EU Corpus Juris our courts have become extensions of government power instead of independent arbiters of justice.
|
On the basis of the laws and treaties already signed by our Queen and Prime Ministers, What will life be like in the EU after the 7th Treaty is signed?
Our Westminster Parliament immediately becomes pointess as its remaining powers are transferred to Europe.
It is the formal end of Britain and England as nations.
Britain’s 153 embassies around the world will be closed as the ink from the Queen’s signature dries. (As Tony Blair refused to admit this has been agreed to, Jose Zapatero, the Prime Minister of Spain, confirmed it in a February 2005 radio broadcast.)
After the EU abolishes our 48 counties your address will change from 4 High St, Taunton, Somerset, Great Britain, to 4 High St, Taunton, Area K, European Union. (The glorious EU county “The South West Region” has had the postal address “Area K” assigned for over a decade.)
The Official National Anthem of the EU, which you should have known since 1971 is based on the melody “Ode to Joy” by Beethoven, formally replaces God save the Queen. The EU flag replaces the Union Jack, the red, blue and white nautical ensigns etc. (The EU Commission has already ordered (24.11.2005) our Merchant Navy to fly the EU flag in place of the red Ensign.)
The EU takes ownership and command of our Police, Army, Royal Navy, RAF, nuclear weapons, currency reserves, North Sea Oil. (See the EU Constitution below)
The UK Independence Party will be banned under the 1999 ruling of the European court of Justice case c274/99, where it was held that it is illegal to criticise the EU.
The Conservative, Labour and Lib-dem parties will be abolished (only pan EU parties like the EPP or PES are allowed -see clause I.46.4 of the EU Constitution). It will then be blindingly obvious to even the dumbest politician there is no reason to keep Westmister open, and that the EU has the legal right to close it.
Many people will be excluded from the jobs they know best, as the EU’s demand that you must pay to be re-taught the job, and pay for a certificate before you can be employed, becomes universal.
Hundreds of thousands more small businesses will close on the enforcement of the remaining 100,000 EU regulations our government has already passed. Several million will be permanently unemployed as a result.
We will all be criminalised by the 107,000 regulations. Its impossible to know or understand 107,000 regulations, and the poor can’t possibly afford to comply. We will all be subject to frequent fines and arrest as a result. Here are just 4 examples:
Under EU regulations it is now illegal for you to repair your plumbing, electrics or your car (from 1st January 2006). If you buy a boat over six feet long, built after the EU Recreational Craft Directive of 1999, and don’t pay the EU £4,000 to “measure” the boat, you get 6 months imprisonment. We will live under permanent threat of arrest and fear of the knock at the door that takes us away.
Massive corporations will do well, but with huge immigration allowed from the EU, they’ll be able to pay minimum wage everywhere, not just in the provinces as they do now. If you don’t accept the minimum they’ll employ a Pole or a Czekoslovakian.
Big corporations will also have a near monopoly (with the government) on employment and will be able to dictate unfavourable terms to staff without fear of contradiction.
Plum government jobs and corruption will ensure the wealth of politicians, bureaucrats, their businesses and associates at all levels of government, including local government and amongst our 7000+ quangos.
Society will divide into two: the remaining 60% of us will be either unemployed or treated abysmally on minimum wage.
Taxes will rise more steeply to pay for the even larger explosion in government growth and corruption
There will be no redress through local democracy because there won’t be any. The nine UK regional governments, which replace our 48 counties and councillors, will be unelected (see the European Regionisation plan). Our only vote is to the powerless EU parliament. We will be ruled by the 25 unelected Commisssioners, and have have no redress at any level; we will be as poor but have less freedom than Soviet Citizens.
If we demonstrate or protest we can be be seized and relocated to another region. The EU Arrest Warrant and Civil Contingencies Act 2004, with 20 other oppressive Acts the Queen has signed between 1972 and 2005, give the government absolute power over us. They can shoot us if they wish with no legal comeback - the shootings of innocents Philip Prout and Jean de Menezes were entirely legal under EU law.
The tendancy to pick on Muslims, as Germany used to pick on Jews, has already begun. Europe will be a very nasty place.
How long will the EU last?
Eventually, perhaps 15 years down the track, Europe will collapse under the weight of its own corruption, bureaucracy, and regulations. There will be so few productive businesses that even at 100% tax rates we will not be able to support the massive, corrupt and wasteful government. Many of us will be starving in the lead up to the collapse. After the collapse we may be able to leave the EU, if a dictator has not taken advantage of the complete absence of democratic checks and balances by seizing power. The Constitution of the EU is similar to the Soviet Union’s. That dictator is free to choose between a Soviet or Nazi style government. Then it could take 70 years to break free.

.
Fifty years ago our greatest threat might have been violence or mugging. Now the greatest threat to our economic well being, our way of life, our freedom and the very existence of our nation, is our own government.

What do we want?After the repeal of the EU treaties we want a change to our British Constitution so politicians can never hijack our nation again. Every Parliamentary Bill, after its Second Reading, should come down to us, the people, to vote yes or no as to whether the Queen should give it Royal Assent. This will take power away from our destructive politicians and return it to the people, where it belongs. (They do this in Swtizerland - they, not us, are the most democratic nation on earth.) We can then return to being a peaceable, just, honest, prosperous and fully democratic society where everyone’s rights, no matter how high or low are respected, and the disadvantaged properly looked after. And where neither governments, corporations nor individuals have obscene wealth and power.

What can you do to help?
1. Find out when your local MP holds their surgery and attend with a printout of this, and the one page summary of the EU constitution below. Ask that MP to cross the floor to be the leader of the first Anti EU Parliamentary Party (representing 65% of our nation). The publicity would be stunning, and might force an in/out vote.
2. Make appointments with your local journalists, give them the same two print outs and ask them to write about the truth about the EU.
3. Do you know anyone famous? Persuade them in the same way to join our cause and get the truth known.
4. Print little stickers: “We didn’t vote for this - it has no mandate,” and stick them on everything that represents the police state and rip off government.
5. Tell your Town, District and County councillors they are about to be abolished. See below.
6. Do anything you can to get the truth about the EU published.
Or print and hand out this flier (a .pdf), or flier (as a word document). It can be photocopied double sided on to one page..

Our Councillors abolished
Our 20,000 Councillors will be permanently abolished after the EU Regionalisation Plan has established the nine EU Regions. Point out they were elected to serve the public, not the government, and the public has not agreed to their abolition.
Try to persuade them to stand up for the people who voted for them, (which is only doing their duty) by holding a yes/no local ballot on whether the public agree with the abolition of our counties, councillors and nation.
If the public vote no, they should declare, for their Town or county, UDI from Europe and the illegal actions of our government since 1971, particularly the abolition of our British Constiution, common law, our nation and counties. The press coverage this would generate would force the truth into the open nationally, leading to a national in/out ballot on the EU. Just one council could achieve this fabulous result alone. s

The six treaties are:
1. The European Communities Act 1972.
2. The Single European Act, 1986.
3. The Maastricht Treaty, 1992.
4. The Amsterdam Treaty, 1997.
5. The Nice Treaty 2001.
6. The European Union Treaty, 2003.
The seventh will be called something equally innocuous, like the Treaty of Lille. Then the loss of our nation, way of life and freedom will be complete.
The best summary of the six treaties is the ConstitutionSome British politicians were horrified when they saw the EU’s absolute power revealed in its new constitution, and falsely accused the EU of much more than a tidying up exercise. It wasn’t, it was a re-statement of the 6 treaties in almost readable English. Our politicians simply hadn’t read the six treaties before they voted for them. The French and Dutch “No” votes are being ignored as usual; the EU Constitution is 2/3rds implemented and still being implemented; it reveals the true nature of the EU.

EU treaties and publications abolishing our 48 counties
The Conservative Con trick
Many people have been fooled by the Conservative Party into believing the party is anti EU. It was the Conservatives, under Ted Heath, who took us in to the EU, and then he lied that his 1972 EU Treaty wouldn’t affect our sovereignty. Three out of the four Prime Ministers who signed the 6 EU treaties were Conservatives, every one af them legally a traitor under the British laws of their time. Do you see a pattern here?
In 2005 Party Leader Michael Howard could have won the election for the Conservatives by making one simple statement: “We will repeal the 1972 EU Communities Act and leave Europe”. Millions of Conservative voters would have rejoined the fold. A million Lib-Dems and Labour voters would have joined him. But he didn’t.
Because the Conservative leadership would rather be in Europe than be in power. The Conservative leadership, including David Cameron, is completely dedicated to Europe.
Instead Howard continued betraying Conservative voters, so he lost. (And to be fair, why should Conservative leaders miss out on the EU corruption gravy train?)
With the Labour and Lib-Dem parties openly for Europe, its clear the three parties will never give us a vote to leave the EU and keep our nation. The answer may be massive civil disobedience, a permanent General Strike, or a blockade of Westminster until MP’s resign.
34 years of negotiation from the inside have failed to improve the EU one jot. Shouldn’t we repeal the 1972 European Communities Act and get clean out?
The abolition of the Labour, Conservative and Lib-Dem parties.
So sloppy have our politicians been in their reading of the EU treaties, most haven’t noticed that the EU will abolish our Labour, Conservative and Lib-Dem parties. It was clear in the Madrid 1999 party financing document, and it was re-stated in the Constitution, clause I-46-4. Only pan European parties like the EPP will be allowed. Some politicians, like Heseltine and Ken Clarke, can’t wait for this to happen.
A date for the abolition of Westminster has tactfully not been given
Once the 7th treaty is signed, Westminster’s remaining powers are transferred to Brussels, and Westminster is left with the powers of a county council. Except it won’t have a county, because they will be abolished under the Regionalisation plan. The 9 EU regions report direct to Brussels, so Westminster will be a county council without a county. Anyone with half a brain can see Brussels will abolish Westminster, as it’s only potential use would be as a rallying point to challenge the power of Brussels.
The Queen, Treason and the Coronation oath
The Queen is the only monarch to have broken her coronation oath, by signing these six treaties that abolish our common law, the British constitution, the British and English nations, and our sovereignty. She has also committed treason, together with co-signatories Ted Heath, Margaret Thatcher, John Major and Tony Blair. Realising they stood a good chance of spending the rest of their lives behind bars, Tony Blair and the Queen signed the Crime and Criminal Evidence Act, 1998, which abolished the crime of treason.
The new EU Hitler doesn’t have to get elected
Its worth noting that Adolf Hitler first had to get elected, if on a 35% minority vote, and then get his Enabling Act passed. An EU dictator has no such problems. Our EU rulers do not submit themselves for election now. And the Queen has already signed the Enabling Act (Civil Contingencies Act 2004).
The EU’s Hitler will have a much easier rise to power, and will have the formerly British and French nuclear weapons from day one. Adolf Hitler killed 54 million people. The EU’s dictator could kill a billion at the touch of a button, with no democratic checks and balances to answer to. How could any aspiring dictator resist the EU opportunity?

As a word doc.
Do we want to be in Europe? Do we want to lose democratic government, the nations of Britain and England, and all our counties? Do we want to put ourselves in the EU, where we will be at the mercy of any dictator who chooses to control us? Isn’t the answer obviously “No” ?
We can live again outside Europe
Outside the EU we can be a free and properly democratic nation. Free from Europe we could stop half our government spending being wasted, could save the £200 billion a year it costs us to be in Europe, repeal all its 107,000 regulations, and stop losing the £22 billion a year to Europe on our balance of payments. With those vast savings we could easily pay all our people a good living wage. According to the OECD we are the 4th strongest economy amongst the world’s 205 independent nations, and we will make it handsomely.
We could leave the EU in 14 hours
The fastest an Act of Parliament has been drafted, passed by Parliament and signed by the Monarch was the abdication of King Edward VIIIth. It was done in 13.5 hours. We could repeal the 1972 European Communities Act and be out of Europe in just fourteen hours, if our traiterous MP’s, Prime Minister and Queen so wished. So far they’ve illegally denied us the choice. We need to change that, but we may only have two years left before the final 7th treaty is signed.
Thank you. Please choose one of the six actions above and complete it.

American supporters of Israel were delighted to learn that an Israeli company, Magal Security Systems-owned in part by the government of Israel-is in charge of security for the most sensitive nuclear power and weapons storage facilities in the United States.The largest perimeter security company in the world, Magal started out as a division of Israeli Aircraft Industries (IAI)-which was owned in part by the government of Israel. In recent years, however, Magal evolved into a publicly-traded company, although IAI (and thus the government of Israel) still holds a substantial share in the highly successful firm.
What all of this means is that the government of Israel will actually have control over the security of America’s nuclear weapons.
Supporters of Israel say that this is a splendid idea, since Israel is said to be perhaps America’s closest ally on the face of the planet. However, there are some critics who question the propriety of America’s super-sensitive nuclear security being in the hands of any foreign nation, particularly Israel which, even today, officially denies that it is engaged in the production of nuclear arms.
Be that as it may, however, Magal’s global interests are quite broad-ranging. Having secured 90 percent of Israel’s borders through a wide-ranging array of super-modern “space age” technology, Magal has now branched out internationally.
Not only does Magal provide security for American nuclear facilities, but it also does likewise for most major nuclear facilities in Western Europe and Asia. In addition, the Israeli firm also provides security for Chicago’s O’Hare Airport and, for the last fifteen years, has kept watch on the Queen of England’s famed Buckingham Palace in London. What’s more, Magal provides security for 90% of the American prisons that utilize electronic systems. Magal brags that its other clients around the globe include: borders, airports, industrial sites, communication centers, military installations, correctional facilities, government agencies, VIP estates and residences, commercial buildings and storage yards.
There is hardly a major country or major enterprise that does not have Magal’s security specialists keeping a close watch on their activities.
Clearly, Magal is no small enterprise. While 27% of its total sales are in the Israeli market, its largest market is in North America, which currently accounts for 35% of its sales.
However, Magal’s American outreach is expected to increase substantially, especially now that firm has set up a Washington, D.C. office which will promote its products to federal agencies and to the members of Congress who provide funding for federally-supervised security projects across the country at all levels: local, state and national.
And with current U.S. Homeland Security Chief, Michael Chertoff, not only a strong supporter of Israel but also the son of a woman who has strong Israeli ties-even including service with El Al, the national airline of Israel-Magal, owned in party by Israeli Aircraft Industries-will be a clear-cut favorite in the eyes of the power brokers in official Washington who have the power to grant lucrative security contracts.
At the moment, Magal has four U.S.-based subsidiaries: two in California, Stellar Security Products, Inc. and Perimeter Products Inc., as well as the New York-based Smart Interactive Systems, Inc., and the Virginia-based Dominion Wireless, Inc.
All told, the Israeli company holds a 40% share in the worldwide market in perimeter intrusion detection systems and is working to expand its business in the protection of oil pipelines.
Magal is also said to be quite interested in guarding water lines around the globe, particularly in the United States. In fact, Magal may have an inside shot at getting a monopoly in guarding America’s water supplies.
On July 19, the Bush administration’s Environmental Protection Agency announced a “partnership” with the Israeli Ministry of National Infrastructures to improve what they called “water supply system security in the United States and Israel.” Since Magal is so highly respected in Israel, it’s an even bet that Magal will soon be guarding the U.S. water supply.
