Britain agreed to it in principle when they joined the EC under Ted Heath over thirty years ago. Margaret Thatcher discusses the issue in detail in her book The Downing Street Years.Churchill discussed the "United States of Europe" in Triumph and Tragedy, the last of his six-volume WWII series.

I haven't seen anyone of like stature here discuss the NAU -- just a couple of fringe academic types and one Bushwacking Congressman.

We live on a continent whose three countries possess the assets to make it the strongest, most prosperous and self-sufficient area on Earth. Within the borders of this North American continent are the food, resources, technology and undeveloped territory which, properly managed, could dramatically improve the quality of life of all its inhabitants.
It is no accident that this unmatched potential for progress and prosperity exists in three countries with such long-standing heritages of free government. A developing closeness among Canada, Mexico and the United States--a North American accord--would permit achievement of that potential in each country beyond that which I believe any of them--strong as they are--could accomplish in the absence of such cooperation. In fact, the key to our own future security may lie in both Mexico and Canada becoming much stronger countries than they are today.
