Major blow for Cameron as EU boss tells PM: There’ll be NO more reform if you Remain
UK Express ^ | June 22, 2016 | Greg Heffer

European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker today dismissed Mr Cameron’s eve-of-referendum pledge he will push for changes to migration rules if the UK stays in the EU beyond the historic referendum in less than 24 hours time.

It represents a major blow to the Tory leader’s hopes of persuading still undecided voters to vote Remain with the promise of a further renegotiation of Britain’s relationship with Brussels.

In a newspaper interview today the Prime Minister said he can “guarantee” a Remain result will give him the mandate to push eurocrats for greater reform of the 28-country bloc.

I see PM Cameron quitting on Friday morning. Boris Johnson or some other conservative will be PM.

Actually, for the other five or six countries which are peeved about the way that the EU runs...it’s pretty marginal news about the future hopes of some changes.

I’m really surprised they didn’t hold their tongues until Friday rather than throw some gas on the fire right before the vote.

BREXIT ping

Cameron caught lying his hindparts off...again.

Time to institute knot tying classes, should be enough Scouts and Sea Scouts to get the program started.

Makes you wonder if they have rigged the vote and are confident of the outcome, doesn’t it?

While much of the local (REMAIN) media focus on the anti-immigration and traditional society disruption as the reasons for the anti-EU vote, it appears that the majority of the BREXIT proponents are more anti-Brussels, anti the unelected EU High Court, anti the over-bearing regulatory environment that characterizes the current EU.

A prime example, widely joked about, is the coming ban by the EU on the electric tea kettle for being an inefficient device contributing to pollution and climate change. The Brits still love their tea and their electric tea kettle.

The sad fact is that the EU Parliament, supposed to be the people’s defense against the bureaucrats, is an impossibly unwieldy body with so many disparate goals as to be useless. Thus the bureaucracy of the EU in Brussels is without much control and has the ultimate goal of completely federalizing all the member countries into something even less than US states.

Stupid and arrogant are two qualities that do not work well together.

you are right. so far as I can tell they have no way of enforcing their onerous regulations.

If they remain, the regs should just be ignored
