Publisher's Synopsis
This book is the author's contribution to the debate on Britain's future relationship with the European Union. Unusual circumstances led him to spend over 10 years researching the significance of European integration. He discovered that a British Secret Service Agent, who investigated Jack-the-Ripper crimes, wrote about a political alliance of European nations (how it would develop, its character and future) even before the French Founding Fathers of the European Project, Jean Monnet and Robert Schuman, were born in 1888 and 1886 respectively. According to the Intelligence Officer, a Confederation of European Nations would develop through a great European crisis. And this European Confederacy would become the next major political feature in history after the restoration of the Jews to Palestine. He made this forecast before Theodor Herzl, the Father of Zionism, formed the Zionist movement in 1896. The state of Israel for the Jews was created in Palestine in May 1948. Two years later, in May 1950, the European Union was born in Paris with The Schuman Plan. These events occurred exactly as the Intelligence Officer had predicted. The author shares with the reader the important advice Schuman and Chancellor Adenauer offered to Europeans concerning the survival of the European Project. The writer responds to David Cameron's Bloomberg speech. He offers a critique of his vision for Britain and Europe. He explains whether an independent Scotland should seek EU membership or not. The writer also reveals his communication with an Archbishop concerning the Church of England's support of Britain's membership of the European Union. This volume explains the significance of the national emblem of Great Britain (The Royal Coat of Arms) and what "Britishness" implies. British values and identity are concealed in Britain's heraldry - the symbol of the Sovereignty of the British people.
