EU Bureaucrats to create super-powerful EU president

A covert group of EU foreign ministers has drawn up plans for merging the jobs currently done by Herman Van Rompuy,  president of the European Council, and Jose Manuel Barroso, president of the European Commission.

The new bureaucrat,  who would not be directly elected by voters, is set to get sweeping  control over the entire EU and force member countries into ever-greater  political and economic union. Tellingly, the UK has been excluded from  the confidential discussions within the shady “Berlin Group” of  Europhile politicians, spearheaded by German foreign minister Guido  Westerwelle.

Opponents fear the plan could  create a modern-day equivalent of the European emperor envisaged by  Napoleon Bonaparte or a return to the Holy Roman Empire of Charlemagne  that dominated Europe in the Dark Ages. They are concerned that David  Cameron’s coalition Government is doing nothing to prevent the sinister plot. The secret talks were uncovered by Independent Labour peer Lord Stoddart of Swindon.

“This is a plot by people who want to abolish nation states and create a United States of Europe,” he said. “The whole thing is barmy. These people are determined to achieve their final objective.

“The only hope for Britain is to leave the EU and become an independent nation.”

The move will give further momentum to the Daily Express’s hugely popular crusade for Britain’s withdrawal from the EU.

Tory backbench MP Douglas Carswell said: “It doesn’t matter how you arrange the offices of these technocrats, they are useless at arranging our lives for us and they are not elected so they have no legitimacy.

“My worry is that the president will end up having the charisma of Van Rompuy and the economic management skills of Barroso.”
