Should Britain stay in the EU or is now the time to leave?I thought that we fought two world wars - and won - to keep GB ruled by just GB! We should go back to the club we had before - the Commonwealth - apologise for "throwing our toys out of the pram" and trade with them again. I was not allowed to have a vote when government gave us the choice as I was overseas with the forces and having lived in an Common Market" country I would definitely not have voted to stay in. This organisation was originally formed as a purely trading community and NOT for us to be controlled by any other country. After all, even the Romans had different laws for each country they governed so perhaps we should follow their example?ViewDate:

The unemployment figures would drop, the young people could leave with a trade and this country would be able to function with a better trained work force. M
