getting out of the E.U.
Watch this postI think that we should get out and get out now why should some faceless people in Brussels dictate to us, why should they make our laws tell us how many people to let into our country and also what they are and are not intituled to both in housing and benefits, which one of our laws are legal and which ones we need to change also they create more problem’s for our industries and employers tell us how many hours we are allowed to work and so on and so on????
Good men and women died for our freedom and for us to decide for ourselves so why do we have to have faceless wonders tell us we have to give prisoners the vote, allow as many people in from other European countries AND WHAT WE HAVE to give them in benefit’s not just the the NHS, homes and monies from our tax’s in the way of benefits to pay council tax and also child benefit when there children are not even born in this country, did the good brave men and women give up there lives for nothing its as if Germany and France have joined forces and are taking control of the whole of Europe but in stead of going to war this time they are doing it through the back door in their use of the so called European Union, so long as every one goes along with them it’s so good but if you stand up for your country then they fine you,
So much for it being democratic its more a dictatorship mmmm did that not happen a few years ago using a different name then though,
I am not racist before I get tarred with that brush and no I do agree you can not pick and choose the bits one wants and ignore the rest Lets get out while we can and we can still build a great future for this country look at Switzerland and Norway to name but too countries that are enjoying a stronger standard of living then we do, and we can be just as strong out of the E.U than we are in it if not stronger, the world is getting smaller and trading with other countries is still a freedom everyone can enjoy, I hope we do come to our senses and get out before we end up too far under the yoke of the so called E.U.

We don't tolerate swearing, and reserve the right to remove any posts which we feel may offend others... let's keep it friendly!
Likewise, I am not a racist, I believe in helping others less well off than myself when I can, but we can't keep allowing these immigrants to come to the UK when it's the working population who have been taxed on their earnings to provide the welfare state we so proudly set up but are having to give away to migrants who haven't contributed anything! We already contribute large sums of money to third world countries which always seems to end up in the pockets of everybody except those who need it. We've given our border controls up, our laws, our freedom to decide what's best for our country and in return we've had rules and regulations thrust upon us that are not of our making but we are not allowed to change.
Let's get out. We've become despondent as a nation because we've been downtrodden by Brussels for too long, come on 'Brits' vote "OUT" and lets get our pride and borders back, let's return our country into the great nation it once was.
I agree we should leave Europe they systematically have been tryng to ruin us. It was supposed to be trade not a dictatorship and now that they want the Turkish people to join i definetely want out and no i am not racist but I have worked with Turkish men and I think if they could have they would have well lets leave that to your imagination. Part of the trouble the riots and trouble in Europe is not being shown on the news because Cameron wants every body to believe things are great over there every body us friendly. Well I doubt the police caught in an ambush having their car set on fire while they wer inside would think that we need to get the information out there, how I am not sure becauswe every one is going to be sceptical unless it is backed by the BBC and that is not going to happen becuase of Murdoch putting a block on all decent news. The only think we can do is spread the word and hope they don't fiddle with the results because I can see a public backlash in this country that could start a
civil war
Yes we have made mistakes and the institutions have become all to powerful without full accountability to its peoples, but this is partially down to our own fault in not voting when asked and failing to have our own consensus in the politics of the UK.
All extremism, whether in the UK the US or Europe has to be listened to and acted upon so as to accommodated the differences of opinion, even within families we have differences , so its a sure thing that any country or nation will suffer from the same problems , but I am sure everyone wants peace and a stable environment to grow up in , the problem that is excusable , is the difference in wealth and justice between the rich and poor , educated and uneducated, that is when resentments are fostered and friction occurs.
We need a Europe that recognises the differences as well as our common goals and have a mutual respect for them, its not a religious divide it is about humanity and respect and sharing and agreeing that everyone upon the planet has an equal place upon it ans no-one has a greater share than another, it is in this area that real changes have to occur , and its probably more about how we share with respect the worlds Natural resources and ecosystems.
Can we do this from an island without ties?
I think the EU brings stability in terms of peace, partnership working to tackle crime and terrorism through shared intelligence and the European arrest warrant.
It also protects workers rights, which is important with this govts determination to destroy unions. As part of the EU we are able to access tariff free trade for half of our exports. Cheap travel wherever we want.
I would also welcome voting for 16 and 17 year olds as it's their future and in the long term will affect them more than any of us. Sovereignty I think is a load of bunkum. Most laws are made here. All of the countries are sovereign and anyway leaving wouldn't make us any less in hoc to global corporations which are the real fly in the ointment to our prosperity.
I think we leaving would make this country poorer in financial and stability terms and reduce our influence globally

Ref my comment above. I read yesterday that the EU is considering removing the zero rated VAT on childrens clothes and food. Can Cameron do anything about it? NO
