SIR: The war ended 50 years ago, says Cllr Peter Johnston - so forget it.
The Jarrow March is even further behind us, as is the history of the Trade Unions with miners and other industrial strikers during the 1939-45 War - so forget those too?
Peter Johnston would do well to check back in time and check on Friedrich List, a 19th Century economist who was against free trade and who believed European countries should be brought into a unified state to protect their industries and create an enclosed economic front. Both the Kaiser and Hitler embraced this philosophy and worked towards that goal.
Chancellor Khol is now trying to centralise Germany.
He seeks half a dozen or so united states at the centre of the European Union with Germany having 50 per cent of the population.
Already he's advocating some Eastern European countries joining the EU to strengthen his hand and German domination
These are the brief outlines of the German manipulation. No doubt Mr Johnston will discover more if he delves back to Bismarck.
