It is reported in today’s media that Britons will lose the ancient right to sell land in acres under a new Brussels ruling nodded through by the EU-puppet regime in Westminster.It is understood that, in what has been described as a “low-key” meeting, a junior Labour minister agreed last week to abolish our centuries old imperial measurement and replace it with the metric equivalent ‘hectare’ from 2010.
Quite who gave this person the authority to erase hundreds of years of English history is not revealed!
From January 1, 2010, Britain’s opt-out from the EU’s metric measurements will cease and the use of the 13th century unit of land measurement will be banned. The requirement, like so much to do with the EU imposition, is buried within acres of small print of the EU directive 80/181/EEC on agriculture and fisheries.
A spokesman for the odious Tory Party – the allowances and expenses claiming organisation whose former leader, Edward Heath, sold out Britain to the EU (Common Market as was) for the price of a new yacht – hypocritically claimed: “This is this kind of pointless interference into the nooks and crannies of our national life that frustrates people about the EU.”
This person is also quoted as saying: “Whether we use hectares or acres should be a matter for Britain to decide, not the EU” – quite so sir – but it was your treasonous party, in league with the equally unprincipled Labour Party, that railroaded us into the EU in the first place!
Yet this news, the elimination of another part of our culture and heritage, comes less than a year after the European Commission and Parliament announced that it would no longer be seeking the extinction of British imperial measures. So who is actually pushing for the removal of our acre we ask? Is it the proto-federalist EU as claimed or could it be the nation-wrecking, Europhile Labour Quislings in Westminster?
For the record, the first law setting out an exact statutory size for the acre was passed under Edward I’s reign between 1272 and 1307. The word is derived from the Latin ‘ager’, from which we also have words like agriculture.
Typically no one from Labour’s Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs was available for comment!
