Lord Pearson: Article 308 … was not designed to allow the corrupt octopus to take power in areas later covered by the 1992 Maastricht treaty on European union …

There is no appeal against the [European] court’s judgments, however. That is the system by which we are now ruled. I submit that you have to be pretty deaf not to hear the jackboots marching, and pretty naive not to realise that they are coming this way. [Hansard]
So… the octopus is wearing the jackboots? The noble Lord’s word-picture may be slightly less sinister than he was hoping.
