No to Blair as EU president - Edward McMillian-Scott loses party whip

Blair

Europe minister Glenys Kinnock today confirmed that Tony Blair is the government's official candidate for EU president [See BBC News].

Not only should this man not be put into any public position, but should be tried in the international court for illegally taking us to war. To have this man as president of the EU would be an embarassment to Europe.

Edward McMillian-Scott

Tory MEP Edward McMillan-Scott has had the whip withdrawn after refusing to stand down in the election for vice-president in Strasbourg, competing against the offical candidate for the anti-federalist group. Although I have no time for the Conservative party I respect his decision not to support the new group containing right wing extremists and homophobes.
