Brown's treachery

Good argument and plain common sense from Simon Jenkins in today's Sunday Times on the 'corrupt' EU Reform Treaty. Read it all here or get the flavour from this snippet: The new constitution/treaty extends EU discipline into new areas of human rights, transport, law enforcement and social regulation. It creates a continent-wide “legal space” and another covering defence and foreign policy, albeit in embryo. It specifically enables future ministerial councils to extend Brussels’ power and to alter veto rights without a need for new treaties. This centralist “power creep” can thus be rendered virtually self-validating.
