The battle over Britain’s national existence and parliamentary independence is a battle which will be fought through to the bitter end, however long it lasts. It is a battle in which no quarter will be asked, and none will be given.
It is a battle in the course of which all other political lines and links will continue to be overrun and broken, as it surges one way or the other.
It is a battle in which the bitterest foes of the past will stand together, and the closest of old alliances will be destroyed.
I say these things in no spirited bravado. They are cold and sober deductions from the fact, the fact that the fight is about the continued existence of a nation itself, an issue to which, by definition, all other political issues and causes whatsoever must be subordinate, as to the greater which subsumes the less.
In war time, Conservatives and socialists, nay, Tories and communists sank their past differences and postponed their future divergent ambitions to fight together for the survival of the political nation itself.
The lesson which has been taught to the British electorate since it made its grave but recoverable mistake, is that in small things and in great things alike, there is no future for the British people which they will find tolerable except as a sovereign, self-governing nation state. edition
