Letter: Major misses the real issue on Europe
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: The Prime Minister now states that the Conservatives will not take Britain into a federal European state and that we will not opt for EMU without a referendum.
Does he take the British public for fools? If the first statement is true then the second is irrelevant. If the second statement is true then a referendum could negate the first. A federal European state could not be achieved without EMU and any nation opting for EMU would inevitably have to become part of a federal Europe.
There is only one question we need to ask ourselves. Do we wish to live under laws passed by our own democratically elected parliament or under laws passed by an unelected body of fat cats in Brussels whose only talent is the ability to bury their snouts in the largest trough on the biggest gravy train the world has ever seen?
