March of the Euro police: The shocking powers of prosecution the EU has over all of us
The full extent of the police and criminal prosecution powers that the European Union has over British citizens can be revealed today.
A Mail on Sunday investigation has uncovered an alarming array of new EU controls over justice and home affairs for which no one has voted, and most are unknown to the public.
These include:
* Europol, the £60 million-a-year European criminal intelligence agency, whose officers have diplomatic immunity.
* An 800-strong paramilitary police force called the European Gendarmerie Force.
* The European Arrest Warrant, which now allows British citizens to be seized in the UK and sent without appeal to foreign jails for months or years without bail while awaiting trial.
