British Rep. Unloads Both Barrels On European Council, Declares Need For Independence On July 4
2019-07-07
[Daily Caller] Brexit Party MEP Ann Widdicombe unloaded both barrels during her maiden speech before the European Council Wednesday, making the case for Britain leaving the European Union.

Widdicombe, one of six members of the European Parliament who represents South West England, gave a passionate speech claiming that the body’s process for choosing new leadership was just further proof that Britain was doing the right thing in leaving the EU.

"If I needed any convincing at all that the best thing for Britain is to leave here as soon as possible," Widdicombe began, "It was the way those elections were conducted yesterday. Because if that is this place’s idea of democracy, then that is a serious betrayal of every country that is represented here because it is not democratic at all."

Other members of Britain’s delegation, including Brexit Party founder Nigel Farage, smiled and nodded along in agreement as Widdicombe kept going.
