KEEPING AN EYE ON PROFITEERING
& HYPOCRACY
Anti-EU peer given Brussels grant
An arch Eurosceptic peer who believes that European Union subsidies are a “vast swindle” is financing replanting on his huge Scottish estate with grants from Brussels.
Lord Pearson of Rannoch, the independent Conservative peer who was expelled from the Tories by Michael Howard for backing the rival United Kingdom Independence Party, has tabled bills in the House of Lords demanding Britain’s immediate withdrawal from the European Union.
He is also co-founder of the Global Britain thinktank which agitates against an “increasingly anachronistic” EU.
Last weekend he wrote in a pamphlet published by the independent thinktank Civitas that the EU was a “corrupt octopus” and was a success “only for those who make money out of it”.
The 63-year-old peer called the EU system of grants and subsidies to farmers a “whole vast swindle” and said Britons were forced to pay “higher taxes” … “to keep EU farmers in the style to which they have become accustomed”.
He added that the United Kingdom gives the EU some £11bn a year: “Of this, they have been good enough to send back to us an average of some £7bn, always for projects which are designed to enhance their wretched image (including the Common Agricultural Policy)”.
One of the projects now being funded with EU money is Sword Loch 3, a 300-acre forest on Lord Pearson’s estate in Perthshire. According to the Forestry Commission, the official body responsible for protecting Britain’s trees, this is one of a number of grants that it has given to Lord Pearson.
The latest £95,000 grant will be used to replant an old Caledonian pine forest, an ancient Scottish species which has been threatened with extinction.
“Half the money will come from the European Union,” said a Forestry Commission spokesman.
Asked if Lord Pearson would know if it came from the EU, the spokesman said: “He would have applied to the Forestry Commission and might not be aware of it. However our literature does make it clear that part of the money for grants does come from the European Union”.
Lord Pearson did not comment when contacted by the Guardian. Details of the grant were released under the Freedom of Information Act.
For some years, Lord Pearson has claimed that the BBC is institutionally biased in favour of the European Union, a point he sought to prove by publishing a report analysing the amount of time given to pro- and anti-EU speakers.
Lord Pearson loyally stood by his old Eton schoolfriend, Jonathan Aitken, after the former Tory minister perjured himself in his libel action over his links with the Saudis.
The peer is chairman of an insurance company and a supporter of the pro-hunting Countryside Alliance, serving as chairman of its deerstalking committee.

It is strange to see Jonathan Aitken given so high a profile as a friend when he was chums with The Saudi’s, meanwhile Lord Pearson is an award winning British Zionist and outspoken Islamaphobe!
TO LEAVE THE EU
What is the exit and survival plan for these United Kingdoms to maximise on the many benefits of leaving The EU. It is the DUTY of our Politicians and Snivil Cervants to ensure the continuity, liberty and right to self determination of our peoples they have a DUTY to protect against crime and secure both our food and our border.
NONE of these DUTIES has a single British politician upheld for 40 years. They have drawn their incomes fraudulently and dishonesty.
Politicians are failing to tell the truth, but so are almost all wanabe Politicians, the MSM and Snivil Cervants.
The fact is that even if EVERY British MEP wanted change in The EU it would achieve NOTHING.
Every single British Politician, of EVERY Party, elected since before we joined the EUropean Common Market, has promised to change The EU’s CAP – In 40 Years they have achieved absolutely NOTHING!
To try to put a value on OUR Freedom is as futile as floccipaucinihilipilification and as odious as the metissage of our societies, as we rummage in the ashes of our ancestors dreams, sacrifices and achievements, the flotsam of our hopes and the jetsam of our lives, consider the Country and Anglosphere which we thus leave our children and the future, with shame!

I SUGGEST – since there is clearly no political party of repute, advocating or campaigning for withdrawal of these United Kingdoms from the EU and restoration of our independent sovereign, democracy, with Justice & the right to self determination in a free country. Deny the self seeking & meaningless wanabe MEPs the Mythical Mandate for which they clamour. Diktat is imposed from The EU but Law should be made at Westminster, for our Country & our Peoples.
