Scunthorpe Telegraph
BID TO FORM NEW GROUP
12:30 - 06 December 2004
An Attempt is to be made to set up in North Lincolnshire a new pressure group called UK Deceived.An inaugural meeting of would-be supporters has been called for Tuesday at 7.30pm. The meeting will be hosted at the Scunthorpe Central Community Centre in Lindum Street.One of the supporters is Paul Potter, who has been a Scunthorpe market trader for 22 years.Mr Potter said: "The idea behind the group is to inform people about the consequences of Britain's membership of the European Union (EU) and future closer integration."UK Deceived will be a new embryonic non- political pressure group. We will lobby all the main political parties on all matters appertaining to the EU."Mr Potter said the new organisation would be loosely connected with the Grimsby-based UK Betrayed group, which had campaigned successfully against the recently proposed North-Eastern regional assembly.A guest speaker, whose name has yet to be announced, will be in attendance on Tuesday night.

Are we allowed to guess the guest speaker Neil? nudge nudge...
The UK Betrayed group have had a lot of great letters in the Northern Press over the last few years. A formidable group of people, God help the Betrayers.
"UK" Decieved? I thought that Scotland and Wales were doing rather well out of all this - a national assembly/parliament recognised by the EU and UK and the lovely Barnett Formula.
I don't believe in the UK since Blair started dismantling it. All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others!
If you live in England, you don't even live in a nation according to Blair and Co(although the UK IS a union of nations).
Hardly surprising that Mr Blair is Scottish; Mr Prescott is Welsh; Mr Hain is Minister for Wales; Mr Reid (health minister for England) represents a Scottish constituency; Alaister Darling (transport minister for England) - ditto; Michael Martin, speaker of the house is Scottish... Most of our leaders come from Scotland and Wales. Is this fair? Is it hell!
I wouldn't mind, but they make no bones about their biases towards their own countries and the majority of people in the UK, who just happen to live in England, can get stuffed and make do with a load of cobbled together, second rate nonsense!
UK Deceived? No - many in Scotland and Wales are happy with furthering EU links, now their own national unity has been sealed by the UK government. England Deceived? Certainly.
Don't let these scumbags divide us.
