"Mr President, ‘wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set’. This is not a European Union any more. What you are all after is a European empire, is it not? It does not matter whether they reform or not, they are joining – the political decision has been made already. I was one of only three British MEPs – all UKIP of course – that opposed the last wave of enlargement. Free movement of goods and services between countries with vastly differing levels of wealth is a plain different thing to the free movement of peoples. We have had over a third of a million people move into Britain from countries like Poland in the last 20 months, and when Bulgaria and Romania join there will be another flood of migrants into Britain. It is not just bad for Britain: it will be bad for Bulgaria and Romania because their brightest and best young people will be lured away by money. It is bad for us. It is bad for them. In fact the whole project looks like madness."@en1
