These videos and books – together with the hundreds of articles on freenations.net – are a summary of my work over the last 30 years which sought to warn of the corporatist fascist and German imperialist nature of the European union and its existential threat to nationhood, democracy and peace in Europe.
The destruction of 27 democratic nation states and 19 central banks (to form the Euro), the destruction of Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia, the rise of open Nazi movements in Ukraine, Bosnia, Kosovo and Croatia, Jews fleeing Europe, EU approved ethnic cleansing in the Balkans and the systematic economic and industrial weakening of the United Kingdom all point to the justification of those warnings.
Because I have been warning about a fundamental evil and about a war against democratic nationhood these works have little to do with the traditional concerns of “left – right” party politics. That is why praise has come from the communist Morning Star and Margaret Thatcher, from leading left wingers like Michael Meacher and John Pilger as well as the Conservative Lord Tebbit. From historians like Andrew Roberts and a former Head of Defence Intelligence, from journalists and industrialists, from Dr Juergen Elsaesser on the German Left to Milton Friedman on the American Right, from a former Czech Ambassador and a former Canadian Ambassador and from a Conservative Czech President to a Minister for Kosovo.
The first publication on the danger of EU membership was “Your Country Your Democracy – the Threat from the European Community” in 1990 (second edition 1992) in which I documented the weakening of the British economy by EC policies and warned that the “federalist proposals in the Maastricht treaty are not for a liberal association of free nations but a new fascism”.
The video “The Nazis and fascists who founded the European Union”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nf5KeC4dAs
is based on my 2008 speech at a Committee Room in the House of Commons (attended by some 50 members of the public as well as several MPs and Lords) later published as a cd and expanded again to produce this video on youtube. It has been viewed approximately 150,000 times.
It was further expanded and updated as the video “Brexit or die”

and again in the book “And Into the Fire – Fascist elements in post war Europe and the development of the European Union” available on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/Into-Fire-Fascist-Elements-Development-ebook/dp/B00E68O9SG/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Rodney+Atkinson%3A+%22And+into+the+Fire%22&qid=1597058803&sr=8-1
Of equal importance are the following books.
“Treason at Maastricht – the destruction of the Nation State” published in 1994
which describes the constitutional destruction of the 800 year old British constitution on the altar of the European Union.
“Europe’s Full Circle – Corporate Elites and the New Fascism” published in 1997
the book exposes the individuals and groups behind the secret plans for a European Superstate and the abolition of national democracies. As the Left has moved right and the Right has moved left they have met in economic corporatism. Corporatist Europe has built its “Union” on the Nazis 1942 plans. These plans were inspired by the anti-democratic politics of the fascist 1930s and supported then as now by Establishment figures and corporatist elites in Britain, Europe, and the USA. Identical methods used by Hitler to rule Germany have been used to impose European Union rule on Britain and other nations. Nazi influence after 1945. 1930s appeasers and 1990s Eurofascists compared. Modern parallels in German Government behaviour. The treasonous behaviour of Arnold Toynbee and Samuel Hoare. British industry attacks UK sovereignty. The secretive Bilderberg Group, its founders and influence. Censorship in British newspapers and appeasement by the BBC.
And finally the comprehensive book of 2001
“Fascist Europe Rising – the Repression and Resurgence of Democratic Nations” published in 2001. https://www.amazon.com/Fascist-Europe-Rising-Rodney-Atkinson-ebook/dp/B00631K50K/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Rodney+Atkinson%3A+%22Fascist+Europe+Rising%22&qid=1597059382&sr=8-1
which describes the Nazis and fascists who were involved in the foundation of the European Union and how the words, many policies and systems of 1940s Nazism have been reproduced precisely in the mouths and policies of the leading “democratic” politicians of the late twentieth century as the European Union developed.
Those who forget history are condemned to re-live it! Even though the UK is now leaving the European Union, the contents of these videos and books are equally important today since what the British leave behind will continue to represent a threat to the peace and prosperity of Europe. Once-democratic nations are still behind its walls and massive debts and high unemployment and an arrogant elite (unaffected by democratic pressures after the emasculation of national parliaments) are bent on further concentration of power in those very institutions which have failed. The British have made a bolt for freedom and democracy. Others will surely follow.
