Strikes won't beat the EU

LETTER: The various strikes around the country are a sign of things to come; our workers are starting to realise that we're in the EU.

The EU government, backed of course by the EU court and with the connivance of our politicians and the Trades Union Congress, has made our Westminster government pass laws which give equality of work to all people living in the EU.

This means that a firm contracted to do work can hire whatever labour it likes and our strikers can't do a darn thing about it.

Hopefully, they may begin to realise just what a mess our leaders have made of this once proud nation.

How long, I wonder, before the Euro Gendarmerie are requested to come and give our police a little help to restore order? Then we shall see who holds the whip hand because the Euro Gendarmerie is an armed militia.

I shall doubtless get accused of scaremongering but it's not been long since our home secretary refused to say that they would never be invited here.

We must be mad.
