intensification of farming, over the years, has convinced us [UKIP] that the EU is intent on abolishing extensive farming and family-farms, in favour of factory-farms operated by a few, immense conglomerates, which are already the "economic partners" of the EU-Commission and - through about three-thousand secret, consultative committees - already shape the
Commission's proposals in this area.
We observe also that the policies of the EU are immutable. Together,
they constitute a system of economic and political governance and
control, which has been formulated in advance and will be implemented,
as rapidly as possible, or as slowly as necessary - and indirectly, if
need be - as long as the EU exists. The EU's "parliament" is important,
in this scheme, only insofar as it gives the (quite false) impression
that a democratic process is at work. In reality, the "parliament" is a
propaganda-arm, and palliative complaints-department, of the Commission - providing names you can write to - who will write back, pretending (in the hope of re-election) that they have meaningful powers and can assist you.
Furthermore, the pro-EU parties, which control the EU's member-governments, are supported and promoted by a vast array of EU-preferred, and EU-funded, "opinion-forming" bodies, from great
corporations (as mentioned above) and professional/commercial
associations, to trade unions, charities, churches, academic institutions, pressure-groups and, of course, the media. This has reduced national elections to little more than a farce.
Under these circumstances, in which it can be seen that democracy has
already disappeared - and even if the EU's programme could be thought to be benign, which we do not believe it to be - the EU's structure and
function, which it cannot change without dissolving utterly, would have to be regarded as an unacceptable, totalitarian danger to society.”
Haha! Are you afraid yet?
