On Thursday, 15th November, the Foreign Secretary, David Miliband MP, made
a speech on the European Union. This was made in the College of Europe, Bruges
– where Margaret Thatcher delivered her famous Bruges Speech, from which the
Bruges Group derived its name.
Referring directly to Margaret Thatcher’s original Bruges Speech the Foreign
Secretary set out his vision for the EU in 2030.
In short, David Miliband’s attempt to set out his vision for Europe is in
reality just a weak attempt to sidestep the debate about the government’s
failure to keep their promise on a referendum and divert attention away from
the facts of EU membership. In this he will surely fail.

Arguments used in favour of EMU have always tended to express issues in
broad terms, with very few specifics. They are based on idealism and economic
ignorance, using lightweight arguments to mask what is really a purely
political project. They are easily countered.

It's really been a rotten couple of weeks for the euro-luvvies. One
bad news story after another. The problems are coming home to roost, while
the so-called "benefits" of euro membership are just not
happening.

Despite the promises made on its behalf Economic and Monetary Union since
1st January 1999 has failed to produce any improvement in unemployment or
growth in the Eurozone countries. The United Kingdom and Denmark, who are
outside of the euro, have on the contrary continued to do much better in both
these respects.

Britain is suited to scrapping the Pound.
