Having Read Amartya Sen's development as freedom, I have been looking forward to this book, I didn't realise it had been released.

Though he is largely ignored by my fellow rightwingers, I think he has a lot of important things to say.

...It seems to have a lot of useful things to add to the EU debate...

It does, but I can't quote from it too much because readers can't follow the links.

I know that there are very few other arguments in favour of the socialist nightmare that is rule by Brussels, but this anti EU = Xenophobia rubbish is constantly being repeated. Its supposed to be our side that propagates the myths.

We Eurosceptics have many reasons to hate the EU, CAP, CFP, 80.000 pages of regulation, Billions of pounds in taxes and Mr Chirac to name just a few. I personally hate the lack of understanding on the continent of the proper role of the state (a misunderstanding shared by our dear leader TB).

The idea that we need to be controlled and told what to do in every area of our lives is insulting as well as morally wrong. The idea that all laws across Europe have to be the same is ignorant beyond belief. If the EU stood for liberty and not the road to harmonised state allowed lifestyles, you might find more Brits being in favour.

Instead it all about compromise by politicians who believe in nothing other than the propagation of their own power.

All we need is free trade and free movement of people. Everything else is an expensive limit on our freedom.

They won because the defendants had told totally wild and unprovable things.

The result is bad because it basically says that anyone can slander a company / Person wilfully and get our money to help them defend themselves.
