Notwithstanding the fact that it was the Conservative Party that signed away the keys to Britain's sovereignty when John Major signed the Maastricht Agreement on 7th February 1992, it was New Labour that implemented this travesty with the gusto of people who were drunk with power and dizzy with their own self importance and ego.
The Maastricht convergence criteria are the criteria for European Union member states to enter the third stage of European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) and adopt the euro as their currency.
The first pillar of the Maastricht Agreement was where the EU's supra-national institutions - the Commission, the European Parliament and the European Court of Justice - all had the most power and influence, which superseded that of the British Parliament. The other two pillars were essentially more inter-governmental in nature with decisions being made by committees composed of member states' politicians and officials. While the Justice and Home Affairs pillar extended cooperation in law enforcement, criminal justice, asylum, and immigration and judicial cooperation in civil matters, some of these areas had already been subject to intergovernmental cooperation under the Schengen Implementation Convention of 1990.
History will show that, the 28 EU Commissioners of the European Union were and remain drunk with their new found power. The lust for power of this unelected body that are living in a world filled with delusional plans of grandeur, are sadly misleading and hurting the indigenous people of both Europe and Britain.
This power grab and injustice only became glaringly obvious to many hard working intelligent Britons, the erosion of British sovereignty and Britain’s culture really began in earnest when Labour, under Tony Blair won the UK General Election in July 1994. This was the acceleration of the PROGRESSIVE GLOBALIST agenda, the PROGRESSIVISM aberration driven by ego, arrogance and the lust for power.
Tony Blair rebranded old Labour to “New Labour” and promised modernisation. On the day after their election victory, Gordon Brown surprised everyone by handing control of interest rates to the Bank of England - a move that would have far-reaching consequences for the UK economy.
After reading this, you will better understand how Great Britain was nearly sold out as a pawn for political gain in the Globalist’s insidious liberal PROGRESSIVISM strategy and was going to be subsumed as a prize in the morass of the European Union.
ABOUT HOUSING SHORTAGE and HIGHER HOUSE PRICES.
New Labour’s economy under Tony Blair & Gordon Brown flourished as they opened the borders to allow an influx of immigrants to help create a cheap labour force and a migrant forced demand for housing, which put pressure on existing housing stock.
New Labour’s immigration strategy fuels housing demand and feeds the price bubble igniting an explosive buying and selling frenzy.
Cronyism became New Labour’s way forward with the chattering classes, liberal media folk, luvvies, wealthy-elite as well as show-biz, media folk and political elites who endorse Progressivism.
House prices continued to rise for 15 years. Over most of this period, house prices rose well above the general inflation rate generating a considerable wealth effect.
EXPOSING THE ECONOMY FALSEHOOD
Gordon Brown started using the “No more Boom or Bust” strap line every time he stood up to speak in parliament. This was based on an economy that was under pinned by a runaway booming property market that generated billions in taxes, both directly from stamp duties and capital gains as well as indirectly through corporation taxes and VAT from the additional monies flowing in the retail market place when home sellers spent their housing bounty.
IMMIGRATION WAS WHY UNEMPLOYMENT ROSE CONSISTENTLY in the UK
Between May-Jul 1997 to Mar-May 2010, the unemployment level increased from 2.1 million to 2.5 million an increase from 7.3% to 7.9%. The salary differential between immigrants and UK Citizens enabled Corporations to make UK Citizens redundant and swap them out for immigants under the guise of new jobs. This was seen especially in the middle tier jobs such as those in IT, where the big Banks brought in droves of foreign IT staff from India on rotational contracts. This happened under the very noses of the Government who were the lapdogs of Corporations in the New Labour haydays.
THEY PLANTED AN IMMIGRATION TIME-BOMB
Immigration records show that net migration grew in 1998 from 48,000 to 140,000 under New Labour deliberate policy of loosening immigration controls in almost every sector. This eventually settled at near 300,000 immigrants per annum before New Labour was dethroned.
These policies accounted for two thirds of the 3.6 million net foreign migration under Labour.
THE PROGESSIVE AGENDA
Blair's 2004 decision to open the door to East European migration was entirely in keeping with his values as an ardent pro-European and globalist.
This created a systemic cultural and personal financial disaster for every hard working Briton. Alarmingly this Progressive agenda was later continued by the Coalition until David Cameron stood down after the June 2016 BREXIT vote.
IMPACT of IMMIGRATION
Massive demand for houses, causing a house pricing boom, plus a large supply of cheap labour in holding down wages which was, of course, welcome to the powerful business lobby.
IRREPARABLE DAMAGE TO UK Plc
To compensate for Gordon Brown’s 1997 tax raid of circa £100 billion on Corporation pensions; Corporations stopped increments to staff pension contributions, by putting salary increases on hold until 2017.
Any increases to cover inflation were dealt with via end of year bonuses. Whilst corporations saved some funds, this meant there were less tax receipts for HMRC due to lack of salary increases. The workers were royally shafted by this mechanism because payments into their pensions from their employers were shrunk for 19 years.
THEY DAMAGED the ECONOMY
Whilst New Labour had a plentiful supply of cheap labour that helped the UK economy to expand without facing the issue of spiralling wages, they short-changed UK citizens on many ways.
There were ALSO these unforeseen losses HMRC tax suffered due to NO salary increases offered to UK citizens over this 15 year period.
IN SUMMATION OF ALL THE DAMAGE THEY CAUSED
- The misguided Immigration policy adopted by New Labour, allowed 3.6 million souls to enter this country over 17 years.
- This spawned the emergence of UKIP and helped create four- or five-party politics in the UK for the first time.
- This put excessive pressure on existing housing stock and forced housing prices to skyrocket.
- This caused UK salaries to flatline, which caused HMRS to lose out on several tens of billions in tax receipts since 1997.
- This caused 100s of 1,000’s of UK citizens to lose their jobs due to being undercut by cheaper imported labour on cleverly constructed contracts exploited by corporations like the big Banks.
- Globalisation strategy saw 10’s of 1,000’s of UK jobs being outsourced abroad.
- This shortfall in tax revenues between 1999 and 2002 triggered Gordon Brown to stupidly sell the UK’s gold at a discounted price, when gold was at a 20 year low, simply to bail out an American Bank and to balance the budget.
- Labour threw open doors to mass migration in secret plot to make a multicultural UK, this was done without asking the people what we wanted.
ONE EXAMPLE OF CRASS STUPIDITY THAT IS UNFORGIVABLE
Between 1999 and 2002, Mr Brown ordered the sale of almost 400 tons of the gold reserves when the price was at a 20-year low. Since then, the price has more than quadrupled, meaning the decision cost taxpayers an estimated £7 billion, according to Mike Warburton of the accountants Grant Thornton.
THE FARCE OF NEW LABOUR’S POLICIES AND THE DAMAGE THEY ARE DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR IS EXPOSED
Finally, when the true immigration figures were released, the penny dropped for everyone why the housing prices were so inflated. The “No more Boom or Bust” game was truly exposed for the lie it was. New Labour systematically destroyed Great Britain Plc.
Unfortunately, due political hatred against the Conservatives and UKIP stirred up by the media, it took a full 15 to 17 years before the populace woke up to the farce New Labour had dragged them through. It was only then at the 2010 General Election, where they voted in Conservatives and Liberal Democrats who formed the COALITION that finally dethroned New Labour.
The public finally began to see through the aberration of the PROGRESSIVISM policies and extensive damage caused by the flawed policies Tony Blair and Gordon Brown’s New Labour.
Sadly, due to political marketing spin, hype and lack of political integrity, the Coalition carried on with this PROGESSIVISM charade until the public finally began to understand the full ramifications of the New Labour and Coalition lies and deceit over the previous 19 years until Nigel Farage forced the BREXIT Referendum in 2016.
Britons in years to come, will look back on this period of history and commend Mr Farage for his wisdom and tenacity in following through with this mission under extremely trying circumstances and pressure.
The moral of the story is that people should be less emotionally tied to a political party because of inherited prejudices, such as the fact that their parents voted for "X", therefore it was good enough for them to do the same, or because the left leaning liberal press persistently bad mouth a political Party or brand their policies racist, simply to shut them up, when the left are losing the argument.
People should NOT be lazy, they should do their homework and research the topic from NON mainstream media, who have been proven time and time again to play towards a globalist, liberal narrative, which as this paper has illustrated, appears to have been a gargantuan cataclysmic failure of epic proportions.
CONCLUSION
We are all Brexiteers, whether we like it or not, so it is time to pull together and all start rowing our boat in the same direction. If we fail to do this simple thing, Britain stands to lose a lot more than what New Labour did in those seventeen years of Progressive lunacy. We need to grow up as a culture and start supporting policies over people, logic over emotion.
Every British citizen should put their political differences aside and pull together in a united cohesive supportive block and look for the positives in what life could look like post the Brexit. We must get behind Theresa May, give her our support and put the GREAT back into Great Britain.
