Speech in Strasbourg - Nikki says the EU is doomed to fail.



First of all I’d like to associate myself with comments made about the Boston bombing. My condolences to the bereaved and their families, and my best wishes to the injured – terrorism must not, and will not, ever succeed.

 

Well the debate is about the future of the European Union and I must say I normally struggle to make my case in a minute but this debate is a very short one.

 

What future does it have? Is it like the Soviet empire that has a blatant disregard for its people? Who ignores its opinions? Fails to give referenda? Even then it fails to recognise the result and calls for other referenda.

 

Does it steal the savings of its ordinary people like it did in Cyprus? Does it disregard an occupying force in North Cyprus, even though it’s part of the European Union?

 

And yet it has the unbelievable status as a Nobel peace prize winner.

 

Is this the future of the European Union?

 

No. The future of the European Union is doomed. Doomed to failure. It does not have a democratic mandate. You are frightened of the people The European Union is failing and this is why the UK needs to be out of it and soon.
