Lets say we do leave and alls going well after couple years, anyone think the germans will leave too, leaving the rest in it above their heads or love it being left to it?

Is that it? All that is is your exit strategy from this because you aren't able to highlight any bits from his post which you say are 'bollocks' like I asked.

Go and play with someone else if you are gonna sulk.

I am not sulking. I have pointed out items in my original post.

You are doing this, creating a quagmire, because you cannot answer my points. Simple as.

The Germans have a vested interest in staying in the EU because the weak Euro sells more exports. The ones to watch would be the Danes, the Dutch, the Hungarians and the Swedes. Support would rise for them to follow Britain and leave e EU.

I am, but I haven't weighed in on this one.

I'm interested and see merit on both sides to an extent.

But on the balance I believe it is safer to vote in and deal with our problems at home rather than foisting them on the eu and hoping it will all be fine when we leave... Either way it won't be, the issues are with politicians are in Westminster not Brussels.

All I will say is that the Daily mail is a pisspoor excuse for a newspaper and is full of warped fear moungering.

Spot on- Daily Mail horrific. Still, it gives the little Englanders something to get angry about as they choke down their cornflakes every morning- 'Could the PC brigade impregnate pensioners?' 'Have the Unions devalued property prices?' That's 2 from the headline creator. I'm sure I actually saw that second one in the Mail last week, actually...

Can't be arsed to read thru all 74 pages.....

Here's my take,

WHY do people from USA & the 'Americas' PLUS China/Russia/Europe....Australia/India/Asia... Middle East, etc etc etc......HAVE A VOTE in OUR referendum?

EDIT: EUROPEANS living here...WTF?

65m population(give or take a couple), 55ml allowed to vote....50ml vote out....It WONT happen coz the Govt have already decided the outcome no matter what WE do or say....& that's the sad thing

Still gonna vote in....hehehe...NOOOO OUT OUT!

 

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Agree about DM but Cameron is doing more than his fare share of scare moungering.

I'm voting BREXIT.

One day the people of Europe might well be part of one nation or a federal Europe but the current situation is not acceptable.
We are part of the problem right now and we need to leave to allow those on the mainland time to get their house in order. We cannot effect the EU from within,the last 33 years has proven that. If Europe cannot fix itself then we are better off out of it. Maybe our departure will slap them out of their complacency.

I'm sick of hearing spurious financial arguments from the Remains. There is not a shred of certainty to any claims that have been made.

I had to look it up but I now realise that scare moungering is when you eat LOADS of scares.

Greedy bu*ger that Cameron. You leave some scares for the rest of us.

£350m a day should mitigate the effects of the things we're uncertain about.

Talk of reform is nonsense when Dave got virtually nothing in February.

I still think people are just voting for socialism when they talk about protection of workers rights which in reality still sees us work longer than France or Spain and still on zero hours contracts. We do get sick pay if ill while on leave though which is quite pathetic, not least because I get paid for neither.

If you are going to quote numbers, do please get them right. Take the rebate, public sector receipts and private sector/research grants off BEFORE quoting how much we pay into the EU. Thank you.

Im still undecided...Long term I think 'Leave' is the answer but speaking as someone who is trying to sell their house at the mo a 'Remain' vote will likely ensure the price doesn't plummet before the sale is agreed.

...and I guess that in a nutshell is where most voters will be coming from...a vote that suits themselves and not the Nation as a whole.

if the nation chooses LEAVE then it'll likely result in austerity carrying on for a decade whilst our Service led economy makes the transition to a more balanced Service/Manufacture based one.

A vote to REMAIN will see us treading water for years with countries that know we really wanted out but didn't have the balls to vote to do so.

Whether or not I vote with my head or my wallet remains to be seen ...but whatever the outcome our 'relationship' with the EU and the EU itself will never be the same again.


There is absolutely zero chance of property prices plummeting if we voted LEAVE. Supply and demand, there is still excess demand and will be regardless of the vote. Leave doesn't mean zero immigration, it means we can simply vote for how much we want. Crucial point.

 

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.
