So IDS saying that we are more likely to be subject to Paris style terrorist attacks isn't scaremongering? Both sides literally don't KNOW what will happen in the event of an exit. This is why both sides are scaremongering. It's f*cking boring and I can't believe 23rd June is still so effin' far away. Edited by DanH (02 Mar 2016 11.11am)

Edited by DanH (02 Mar 2016 11.11am) There is a lot more credence to IDS warning about a potential terror attack than there is about the global meltdown of economies (not just ours) that have been bandied about by the Stay campaign. If you polled the supporters of the Leave/Out campaign you would find most agree that particular threat is high on their list of fears and don't need reminding of it by anybody. It does p1ss me off though when it was only 3 months ago in November that Cameron was trumpeting how strong our economy was and we held no fears if we had to go it alone. Now he's giving the impression that we would have to hide behind the settee if we even contemplated leaving the EU. At least Farage and the Eurosceptics have kept to the same script.

I don't think that's true, whether or not were part of the EU, we're a terrorist target of high priority. In terms of border control, passports are still required to move into the UK. The UK and European nation states need to share intelligence on suspects, and there really is need for European states to not only share information but to establish an effective cross border police agency with powers of arrest for certain crimes (not least people trafficking, drug trafficking, murder, arms smuggling, money laundering, terrorism and computer fronted offences). It would also make sharing information of people with convictions in other countries easy. At present obtaining details of convictions from other countries is a monumental pain in the proverbial. Whilst I'm not an 'in' individual, I think there definitely are some areas where cross European 'federalism' can actually serve the people of the EU.

If we go out, then we'll go down the route of the 'non-eu partners' in the ETA (which essentially will undermine a lot of the reason to leave the EU) and it'll be sold on the national sovereignty issue. If we stay in, its business as usual, which is pretty much exactly what it will be if we exit. "One Nation Under God, has turned into One Nation Under the Influence of One Drug" [Link]

Sweet Acid Croydon 02 Mar 16 1.01pm
The case for the stay vote is so negative - it is all intimidation and extortion. In truth the EU is a disaster, a Marxist experiment that has failed miserably. They cheated and bent the laws to get Greece in and then of course it went into financial meltdown, it is full of petty and too powerful Eurocrats meddling in everyone else's affairs and has someone like Juncker of Luxembourg telling everyone to take in more refugees when his own country isn't big enough to take half a dozen. Consider this. Would HSBC have recently decided to stay in London if they thought a Britain out of the EU would harm them? Business goes where it gets the best deal and frankly we have more chance of striking better deals with the rest of the world then we do with the EU where restrictive practices are legion.

It really isn't Marxist. Its a capitalist trading block that promotes corporate interests of member states and promotes a degree of federalism. But its not in any way Marxist.
