BLAIR’S EUROPE – THE SURRENDER GENERATION?

Dateline: l5th October 1999

Tony Blair, launching his "Britain in Europe" campaign (Europe not defined!) said: "Once in each generation the case for Britain in Europe needs to be remade".

It has been - before 1914, before 1939, and now under Blair. Where that case succeeded, Britain failed and Europe collapsed. Where it was defeated, the free nations of Europe flourished. Which one is this generation going to choose.

And should Britain succumb to the continental embrace, will future generations ever be asked “for the case for an independent Britain”?
