If the UK doesn't leave now.....it won't be getting an opportunity again....people need to realise that. Also, via demographic change, even if they were somehow allowed a say on membership the number of those whose allegiance was weighted towards the home country rather than the EU collective would be lower. We need Brexit to re-emphasize British isles independence from the models that EU philes have been selling these last twenty years. Edited by Stirlingsays (13 Sep 2019 4.29pm)

Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky. |

He's intellectually honest, whether we agree with him or not, and personally I think that's something to value on here. For me the economic argument, even if we agreed with SW19 about cheap labour, it just isn't anywhere near enough to remain in this form of EU. Edited by Stirlingsays (13 Sep 2019 4.11pm) You're right. Honesty is a good thing and I respect him for it. I also like the way he is not trying to be virtuous like many remainers do. I would argue though that over supply of labour and wage deflation causes poverty, irrespective of where the supply is coming from. Particularly due to the knock on effect it has on infrastructure and service which as a nation we are really slow to react too and almost never proactive over. It's certainly not worth remaining in the EU to suppress wages. If we wanted cheap labour, then there are plenty of other nations in the world where we could get it far cheaper.

SW19 recognises that remaining on this course is a problem in of itself as we move forward with increasing automation. Blocking entry is far easier than deporting people....I think the last few generations of politicians have been so obsessed with short termism that the problems they have mounted up are huge.

What seems most interesting about this is that whilst the EU presents itself as liberal organisation, and freedom of movement is a free market policy, some of its other policies appear to be a totalitarian power grab, by moving finance centres to Frankfurt they are really controlling the economy and limiting where people can live or what industry they work in.

The Lisbon treaty and it's implications have been in effect for some time. They are nothing like those you suggest. For an objective summary read this:- Key paragraphs from that summary:- "The Treaty introduces a new system of qualified majority voting which will take effect from November 2004 and is aimed at achieving a balance between large and small Member States. Under the new system a measure will be approved if it is supported by 55% of the Member States (15 out of 27), provided they represent 65% of the EU population. Only the most sensitive areas, such as tax, social security, citizens' rights, languages, seats of the institutions and common foreign, security and defence policies, remain subject to unanimity voting."
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |
