Lords On The EU Payroll Blocked Europe Referendum

Additional Information

A ‘shameful’ alliance of former Eurocrat peers who get EU pensions of up to £100,000 a year – which they have not disclosed in the UK Parliament – were criticised last night for sabotaging an attempt by the Coalition to curb the power of Brussels.

An all-party clique of ‘big beast’ politicians and diplomats, many of whom have held lucrative posts in Europe, inflicted a series of defeats on the Government’s EU Bill in the Lords by just a handful of votes.

The defeats to the legislation, designed to guarantee British voters a referendum on any further loss of sovereignty, have been achieved by a small but powerful group of peers with lucrative Brussels pensions and retired mandarins paid large sums to work at the EU.

They have been backed by pro-EU former Ministers including Michael Heseltine, who made a rare visit to the Lords to vote against the Conservative-led Coalition.

Should we now close down the House Of Lords immediately and not let these traitors win?
