The European Union will become a new superstate, said Lord Tebbit, former Conservative Party chairman and minister in Margaret Thatcher’s cabinet, on Monday. Speaking at a dinner to mark the 20th anniversary of Lady Thatcher’s Bruges speech, Lord Tebbit laid out how he saw the future for Europe. He said that the eurozone’s divided response to the credit crisis exposed a major flaw within Europe, and one that would soon be corrected:

When the chips went down, the EMU (Economic Monetary Union) states acted each in its own national interest regardless of their mutual obligation.In short the euro was exposed as a single currency with 15 chancellors of the exchequer and 15 treasuries. In the long run there can only be one chancellor, one treasury, one tax system, one economic policy for any one currency—and that means one government and one state.

Lord Tebbit sees this unity going as far as creating “the West European Republic.” The rest of the countries that do not want to join this new nation would still be part of a new European community of “sovereign independent states cooperating willingly together.”

Longtime reads of the the Trumpet will notice the similarity of Lord Tebbit’s forecasting with our own. Ten nations within Europe will form a single superpower. The rest will be loosely associated with the power, or ruled by force by it.
