Who will you be voting for in the European Elections?The EU is not democratic , although they try to make it look like that ...just listen to Merkel stating that all member states must hand over sovereignty to Brussels ( Germany) ...and Verhofstadt ranting about the EU holding the power and defeating nationalism...sounding very much like speeches given by a certain dictator many years ago ...ViewDate:

Who will you be voting for in the European Elections?The reason that the Brexit Party doesn’t yet have a manifesto ,is that a manifesto is only for domestic policy and as yet ,they have not fought in a General Election ...in fact the Party is less than 6 weeks old and have managed to secure more than 100,000 supporters . As for your comments on the EU being the biggest trading block , it’s only a quarter of the trade available , whereas we could have trade arrangements with the rest of the world available to us if we were not shackled by the many rules and regulations forced upon us . As for the truth about the formation of the EU , there is much written about the original plans proving that it has little to do with trade but more about unifying the whole of Europe under one set of Laws , and one Parliament making those Laws ( there are many publications including Pan Europe , The Unification of Europe,The United States of Europe and the European Project , as well as their own literature on the many Laws and Rules of the EU ) as originally planned .The “peace” that has existed through Europe since the last war has been thanks to NATO and not the EU , although several politicians have tried to give credit to them ( it seems to slip their mind about the terrible conflicts have occurred in many european countries including Bosnia , Albania,Kosovo , Macedonia and Chechnya )...not so peaceful for many ... And as for the youth and their future , surely protecting democracy for them , and the freedom to make their own choices is more important ..., to enjoy the freedoms that we have and not to be conscripts in an Army that Britain has no say over ( it’s all there in their plans and rules ) ... Wanting us to remain a Sovereign Nation does not mean that we are racist and xenophobic, in fact many of us have family members from many nations ( I have 15 different nationalities in my family ) , people from all across Europe and the wider world and we all get on wonderfully ...we may have different cultures and opinions , yet everyone is loving and together and are neither are hard left or hard right as you have labelled people with a different opinion to yoursViewDate:

Should we have a second EU referendum?No , .absolutely not ! Why would a second vote be more valid than the first ? We were told that whatever the decision , it would be implemented and that's what they should do ...democracy dictates that the majority gets the decision and that's exactly what's at stake here ( I did not vote for the government but I accept the majority did and we live with it for the full term ..) The best way forward is to stop the foot stamping and name calling and unite to move forward and accept the challenge to make a successful future ..ViewDate:

Should Theresa May stay or go?She should stay ...and the whole country should get behind her ! As a remainer , she is now working towards leaving unlike many of the MPs (of all parties ) whose constituents voted leave ...and yet the MPs are trying to thwart that decision.Their ballot paper had the same value as your or mine ( one cross) and they should not be allowed to change that !
