The Fight for an Australian Republic: From the First Fleet to the Year 2000 , pp. 44‑45.]
On 25th January‚ American statesman and physical economist Lyndon LaRouche‚ the leader of the global fight to defend national sovereignty‚ stated‚ “People were scared enough to force an Evans-Pritchard piece to be suppressed‚ after it appeared … Evans-Pritchard says the British policy is one of imperialism—no national sovereignty. He said there is no sovereignty of nations anymore. And what he said is the truth‚ and that’s the issue they don’t want discussed. So therefore‚ in that case‚ don’t be naïve‚ don’t play by the so-called rules. Recognize what they are afraid of‚ and give them their worst nightmare.
“They don’t want to talk about this article?” LaRouche continued. “Well‚ we want to talk about this article. Why did you guys suppress this article? What wrong with it? He’s right. There is no sovereignty left in Europe. And that is exactly what they intend for the United States as well‚ and for the rest of the world.”
Those who are promoting such policies “are committing treason‚” LaRouche charged. “They are proposing to destroy the sovereignty of the United States‚ and to subject the U.S. to an international system which is an international empire‚ which is a new British Empire. All these fellows who support this stuff are obscenely attracted to the British Empire‚ which has already destroyed the sovereignty of the nations of Europe. If you do this‚ we don’t have any sovereignty. And if you’re doing this despite these facts‚ you are in fact committing treason … .”
Today‚ Citizens Electoral Council leader Craig Isherwood reiterated the CEC’s call for a government-run national bank‚ like the original Commonwealth Bank‚ to replace the central bank control of the economy:
“The ECB revelations reinforce what the CEC has always said‚ and what the patriots in the ‘old’ Labor Party always said: we don’t have sovereignty if our financial system is controlled by central bankers‚” Mr Isherwood said.
“Our fight for a national bank is a fight for our national sovereignty.”
