		<description>I was absolutely disgusted to read today that Gordon Brown had signed the Lisbon Treaty, so underhandedly and secretly, therefore making it impossible for the Queen not to also do so and try to make us part of the EU.

How dare he do such a thing without having the referendum that was promised to us. Do we have no say at all in how our country is run!!!!!!!!!!!  Obviously not.  It is bad enough that we are now partly ruled by Brussels and this will just be the end of the UK.

We need to keep our own independence.  He knows that if he had gone to the people what the answer would have been and he is unpopular enough now. Hopefully with him going behind every-ones backs, there will now be a revolt and he will be kicked out of his job which he is unable to do.anyway!!!!!</description>
