Those who believed that the Lisbon Treaty was merely an “improved” version of the old European Union will wake up on Friday morning to find that they have an executive president of Europe with a £45 billion budget and full control over Britain’s foreign affairs and defence policies.

There will even be EU embassies in foreign countries, which are likely to ultimately replace all individual European nation’s embassies. The new authority will also take over all military command structures of member states.

Your new president will also have a civil service staff of at least 7,000 workers at his disposal. This will be the single largest diplomatic corps in the world.
In addition, your new president will be paid £250,000 a year plus all expenses. He will get free luxury travel and a pension for life worth two thirds of his salary.

The size of his staff and the duties they will assume will inevitably lead to the new EU structure taking on full executive powers.

According to think tank Open Europe, even EU officials acknowledge that the organisation “will take on an uncontrollable life of its own.”

Open Europe’s Lorraine Mullally was quoted as saying that whoever gets the job as president “will be in charge of the biggest diplomatic service in the world, without even having to get elected or answer to the public.

“The last thing Europe needs is yet another bloated EU institution, costing billions and with no democratic mandate and yet here we are creating a blueprint for a fully-fledged EU Foreign Office,” she said.

It will also inevitably, through the European Court of Justice, be able to determine financial controls, taxation levels and immigration and criminal justice. Major aspects of these policies are already subject to EU regulations.

Britain’s contributions to the European Union are, along with all member nations, set to increase dramatically to fund the vast new infrastructure. The first major project to be funded is the EU president’s headquarters, which will cost an estimated £280 million.

Possibly the single most pathetic aspect about Britain’s membership of this new state has been the Conservative Party’s deceit and deception over the issue.

David Cameron and some of his colleagues lied to the public for years about wanting to hold a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, in spite of it being obvious that it was not possible to “renegotiate” the treaty once it was implemented.

In a further act of betrayal, the Conservative grouping in the European Parliament contains a party that openly supported the Lisbon Treaty. The Polish Law and Justice Party is one of Mr Cameron’s firm allies, and their very first act was to vote for former Communist Party of Portugal member Jose Barroso to be President of the European Commission.

Britain is about to become part of the EU superstate. And it will have done so with the active connivance of the Labour and Tory parties.
