I NOTICED the comment about my support for the people of Catalonia.
Spain is an amalgamation of five kingdoms and my late grandfather, who was half Spanish and a communist, fought against Franco and the Nazi German forces.
I have many German friends but what we have in the UK and what we have tried to do across the world is give people sovereignty and the right to rule themselves rather than be told what to do as is the EU policy.
Catalonia is not like Yorkshire and Lancashire which are rival counties, but a nation with its own language and independent tradition as a proud country.
I believe in freedom and accountability of government and that is why I had the honour to serve. Let us give not just our people, but others, freedom and governments who work for the people rather than for themselves. Spain no longer has sovereignty because the EU has stolen it from it.
