Britain's remaining regular anti-EU columnist censored.

Christopher Booker who has a weekly column in the Sunday Telegraph and fearlessly reports on the growing absurdities of the EU had his column cut today. The missing section may be read on the blog EU Referendum, linked here but the most telling paragraph for me was this: "The tragedy is that, confronted by the most corrupt, hypocritical, inefficient, illiberal, discredited government in history, what millions of voters are looking for is an alternative which might put an end to the sleazy, self-regarding sham of the Blair era by displaying some "masculine" firmness: in cutting back on the bloated public sector and the out-of-control bureaucracy which is destroying our health service, education and police; which might encourage enterprise; which might restore democracy to local government; bring back some balance into our public finances; sort out the shambles into which our Armed Forces are sliding; uphold Britain's national interest, as we suffocate under the malfunctioning system of government represented by the European Union.
