RE: UK PM Triggers Article 50 to Leave the EU - Why I'm Positive About It

in #politics8 years ago (edited)

Part of Glasgow, as well as many other locations in the UK, were flooded over recent years because the EU had decided to ban the dredging of rivers. Mainstream media will defend these accusations and tell you that it was actually climate change that caused this, but when you know that climate change is a load of shite, the true cause becomes rather evident. So, these regulations are not all good in terms of the environment.

Also, I think you are misunderstanding the point I am making. I'm alleging that UK laws enacted by parliament are a dog and pony show, for they are invalid if the EU has a law that negates it. They just keep doing this shit because it gives the appearance of the UK parliament having any level of authority over what happens in the UK, but they do not.

There is something called "The Supremacy of EU Law." If you look it up you will see that a number of cases, decided by the European Court of Justice, have established that EU law rules over national law.

EU law also rules over any member state's national constitution. This means that any EU treaty laws take direct effect in the UK, as well as all other EU nations, and if there is a conflicting law in place in any country, the EU law is given precedent.

Now add the fact that the EU have been implementing so many laws in recent years that the UK does not even have the man power to keep up with the processing and adding it to UK legislation, and we find, or at least, I find, that the UK is not operating under UK law at all. It is under EU law.

I hope I explained that well enough, because you know, law is intentionally fucking difficult to explain.
