Thousands are joining our crusade, like Susan McKendry, 24, reading the Daily Express in Birmingham數千人加入我們的聖戰，像24歲的蘇珊麥肯德里在伯明翰閱讀每日快報
A MASSIVE wave of public support was last night surging behind the Daily Express’s crusade to liberate Britain from the stranglehold of Brussels.
一個大型的市民支持浪潮昨晚在每日快報的聖戰背後湧動，去從布魯塞爾的束縛解放英國。
An exclusive poll conducted on the first day of our crusade showed an astonishing 99 per cent of people agree we should quit the European Union.
在我們聖戰的第一天所進行的一項獨家民意調查，顯示一驚人的99%的人們同意我們應該退出歐盟。
In an indication of the strength of public feeling on the issue, the poll saw the biggest ever response to a Daily Express phone survey, with tens of thousands of people swamping our switchboards.
在這議題的公眾感覺的力量的指示，投票看到對每日快報電話調查的有史以來最大反應，有數以萬計的人淹沒我們的接線機。
The newspaper’s phone lines and website were flooded with people backing our pioneering decision to become the first national newspaper in the country to call for British independence from the EU. And around the country, voters made clear their deep frustration with Brussels meddling and their anger that Britain has not been given a referendum on our EU membership for a generation, despite promises by several Governments.
報紙的電話線路和網站充斥著支持我們的創新決定的人民，成為第一家全國性的報紙呼籲英國從歐盟獨立。和在全國各地，選民明確表示對布魯塞爾的干預深感沮喪，和他們的憤怒的英國並沒有被賦予對歐盟會籍的公民投票一代之久，儘管有幾個政府的承諾。

Tory peer Lord Tebbit yesterday led the acclaim for the paper’s patriotic stance. The former Cabinet Minister, one of Lady Thatcher’s closest political allies, said: “The decision of the Daily Express to join the campaign for Britain to withdraw from the EU is highly significant and puts the paper at the forefront of public opinion in this country.”
Tory Euro-MP Roger Helmer said: “Three cheers and a chorus of Rule Britannia for the Daily Express. At long last a national newspaper has come out and said what more and more people, and more and more Conservatives, believe.
“Other papers have called for less integration, more repatriation of powers, and opposition to individual EU measures, but the Express is the first to break cover and call for Britain to leave outright. They are so obviously right.
“As I have argued for years, we would be Better Off Out. As a Conservative MEP I am proud to give the Daily Express campaign my backing.”
As the shockwaves reverberated around Westminster, Brussels and Strasbourg, voters all over the UK backed our crusade to regain Britain’s national independence.

Refreshment stall owner Nigel Hammond, 35, from Bristol, said: “People are too wrapped up in X Factor or Strictly Come Dancing to consider the ramifications of joining the EU.
“Brussels decided, for instance, that we should have energy-saving light bulbs in this country. Our forefathers would turn in their graves if they knew we were coerced by Brussels as much as we are.”
Richard Hey-Smith, 57, a teacher from Birmingham, said: “I love Europe and the people in Europe, but I think we should be out of the EU.
“What we joined in 1971 wasn’t what they had planned for us in the long run. We were a great industrial nation but now we’re a leisure park. The fishing industry, for example, has been ruined. And how many farmers are leaving farming each week?”
Nurse Susan McKendry, 24, from Ballymena, Northern Ireland, said: “Britain is losing too much money and giving away too much control. Britain should retain its own identity.”
Ian McGurk, a 27-year-old telecommunications worker from Liverpool, said: “I think we should get out of Europe. The taxes are too high and Britain will lose too much money if it stays in. We used to do a lot of business outside Europe, but now we only focus on the EU. We have enough problems at home without being dragged into European issues too.”
Phil Dixon, 53, a coach driver from Swindon, said: “In every profession it seems like more and more European control is creeping in. I got a letter from my bank the other day, saying that the rules for insurance on my savings had changed. And it’s all because of European regulations. I wasn’t consulted about it.”

Roger Foster, 65, a power station worker from Hull, said: “We seem to be putting an awful lot of money into it when we are cutting things here. It’s money that could be better spent in our country rather than lining bureaucrats’ pockets.”
Enid Brumpton, 62, a retired office worker from Newark-on-Trent, said: “We have to follow too many of their laws when we’ve got enough of our own. I fully support the Daily Express crusade.”
Frank Brumpton, 65, a retired steel worker from Grimsby, said: “There are too many rules and regulations. And we’ve been bailing too many people out. I think we should look after our own people. That’s what we were taught in school, to look after number one, and that’s what I think we should be doing.”
Rebecca Scott, a 29-year-old insurance worker from Peterborough, said: “Our hands are tied by human rights legislation and our Government doesn’t have any say on what goes on in our own country. I think we should get out.”
