EU President Vaclav Klaus Speaks - EU Members Walk Out

The video at the bottom of this post is a must-see. It's only about one minute long. Watch it.

From Vlad Tepes Blog:

Below please find the text of a very benign speech by Vaclav Klaus, president of the Czech republic and currently the president of the E.U. During this speech he was chided derided and walked out on. Afterward, a UK member of the EU parliament gave the speech you see in the video below. The people of Europe should be very afraid when a basic little speech about the importance of freedom in terms of political conscience as well as economic free markets is this harshly treated at the EU. It bodes not well for a free people of Europe. Something is amiss in the EU indeed.

It is worth noting that one of the components which received the most harsh reaction was the notion that governments work better when there is opposition. Clearly the very notion of opposition is unacceptable to the EU bureaucratic machinery. Again, cause for deep concern.

Here is a link to an article on the Guardian UK’s site about this speech and its reaction.

Here is the video of the Member of the European Parliament for South East England

Indeed, if the EU elite think the South East England [!!!] MEUP is wrong, then hold the promised referendums, put the Lisbon Treaty to the people.


Yup, it's getting mighty interesting as the people are finding their voices and using it.
