A Factual Account of Britain’s Fifty Year Dilemma over Europe.
This is a very timely account of what happened previously, reminding us of events we have forgotten just as we enter the next, and last round. Everyone interested in the governance of Britain today (and tomorrow) should read this book.
The author has almost achieved the impossible cutting through the arguments of both sides to reveal the facts behind every day’s news, and every day’s spin. It provides all the facts you need to know, AND all the opinions you need to hear, to understand what’s really behind the EU news today.
David Winn thoroughly and impartially analyses the complex interactions between politics, economics, law and power which define the EU today.
He describes an amazing story of political manoeuvring covering Churchill, Macmillan, Wilson, Heath, Thatcher, Major and Blair; demonstrating exactly how every one was different, but more importantly how they have been just the same.
This is a highly informative, thought provoking and fascinating account of Britain’s turbulent battles over Europe. It explains exactly what has happened to our law of the land, and what effects Europe really has on Britain today.
But, the book doesn’t give you an opinion over Europe instead it asks you What do you think?
Britain’s relationship with the European Union is a subject of bewildering complexity surrounded by and entangled with misinformation.Pro-Europeans and Euro-sceptics seek only to promote their own committed views at the expense of objectivity and even honesty.In contrast,this is a book designed to inform rather than influence,and to explain the issues in terms ordinary mortals can understand.
The author, Dr.David Winn,a recent but very mature graduate in law, provides a comprehensive analysis of Britain’s involvement with the European ideal right from its inception. He explains the problems Britain faced in deciding to join and negotiating terms, and in accepting the Maastricht Treaty as well as how the rivalries,and disagreements with its European partners developed over the years.
The decisions and motives of all Britain ’s politicians are examined,and placed within the context of an evolving Europe. Dilemmas of the present involving the single currency,the expansion of the EU to include states formerly under the influence of the Soviet Union,and the far reaching constitutional conference currently in progress are thoroughly described in a balanced and analytical manner.
The book is concerned with questions of law,government,the constitution and national sovereignty as well as practical issues of politics, and economic and social benefits. It provides a wealth of background information and fascinating snapshots of individuals and their often colourful opinions.
Finally, and most importantly, this book will not tell you what to think about Britain and the EU, but after reading it you will know precisely why you think it.
