IN response to MD Hobson’s letter on EU membership (March 28), every government since Heath’s has been guilty of treason by, bit by bit, giving away our sovereignty.

The Queen who swore a coronation oath to protect our sovereignty has endorsed seven treaties eroding our position in Europe, letting us fall from Empire to a ‘region’ in a united Europe.

No wonder Blair and his cabal rescinded the death penalty for treason - there wouldn’t be enough rope for them all.
