Blair lying on Europe

In 1982 Mr Blair stated that the EEC takes away Britain's freedom to follow the sort of economic policies we need. A year later he says we will withdraw from the EEC, which has drained our natural resources and destroyed jobs.

In 1997 he is quoted as saying "On the day we remember the legend that St George slayed a dragon to protect England, some would argue that there is another dragon to be slayed. Europe".

Low and behold, during 2005 Mr Blair without hesitation states "I am pro-European, I always have been".

How can a nation possibly trust and respect a Prime Minister who constantly lies through his back teeth year after year, month after month, week in and week out?

The greatest threat to the UK is the very thing that Mr Blair condemned with such passion in 1997 but now welcomes with open arms and no strings attached.
