Nothing to Lose but Our Chains

Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:

“The deal announced by the Prime Minister is pitiful.

“Does it repatriate a single power back to the UK? No.

“Does it reduce by one penny our massive £20b annual subvention to Brussels. No.

“Does it do anything to stop UK laws being subservient to the EU treaties? No.

“Does it release us from the supremacy of the European Court of Justice? No.

“Does it do anything to allow us to enter a single trade deal with any country in our own right? No.

“Does it allow us to control our own borders and protect ourselves from unwanted immigration? No.

“Does it do anything to re-establish us as a nation able to control our own destiny? No.

“Not a single important aspect of our relationship with the EU will change as a result of Mr Cameron’s deal.

“Roll on the referendum in which TUV will campaign vigorously, and unitedly, and with others to extricate our nation from the EU. We have nothing to lose but our chains.”
