| Taking the Campaign for a Referendum to the opposition in Manchester |
 |
| With Tony Benn who was supportive of my initiative |
 |
| With Ben Bradshaw MP I was trying to convert the inconvertable! |
New Labour leader, Ed Milliband told his conference that politics is broken. What he didn't do like he did with Iraq, is to acknowledge and apologise for the Labours complicity in breaking the democratic link between the people and the people who govern them.
Politics has been broken since we joined the Common Market in 1972 without the consent of the British people. Subsequent governments, including Labour have transferred sovereignty to unelected bureaucrats in Brussels. If he wants to fix politics he should begin by supporting my Campaign for a Referendum.
As you can see from the above photos I was in Manchester today and spoke at a fringe meeting at Central Hall promoting the petition. I have engaged in interesting conversations with Labour delegates including the veteran, principled campaigners Tony Benn and Dennis Skinner. Tony Benn showed support for my initiative and I hope he will give me his endorsement.
I also spoke with many europhiles including Ben Bradshaw who have no intention of giving the British people a say on their future - and they call themselves democrats!
