"Mr President, by its nature, citizenship can only be of a political state. All British citizens were made citizens of the European Union in 1993 without their consent. Few realise that this also includes our supposedly sovereign Head of State, Her Majesty The Queen. Under the still-existing English Constitution, the Head of State cannot be subject to a higher political authority. The English monarch is the physical embodiment of the sovereignty of the nation, and that is the fundamental problem at the heart of British membership of the European Union. The British people still imagine that they are a free and sovereign people, and yet they are not. The issue can only be resolved by them, by a democratic decision accepting their new status as a region of the European Union, or by leaving and re-establishing our national democratic independence."@en1
