Undecided. What we have now is not what we voted to stay in back in 1974, so very happy to have a national debate and then vote on it.

OUT !!


Now this I understood,looks like I'm OUT,unless someone puts up a link to show me why I should say IN

Is there a "shake it all about" option?

The hole thing looks like the "hokey Cokey",maybe we should turn around,cos thats what its all about.


Paul... I'm OUT because:-

We cannot control our borders whilst a member of EU. We are full to bursting now and our infrastructure is creaking.

I don't buy the so called economic benefits that immigration brings - for me uncontrolled migration brings more unskilled people than skilled and just drives down wages, which hits the poorest most.

We don't need the EU to trade, we import more than we export to most of our EU partners. If they try to play hardball on our exports we just withdraw our trade with them completely and trade with our former colonial comrades including India and also China where the potential is huge... and the new emerging economies that are keen to do business.

We will save billions by not being a member of the EU. It was originally set up as the "Common Market" a loose trading agreement between likeminded countries. Now it is a federal state with countries like Rumania, Bulgaria and Greece etc being subsidised by the richer northern nations and spending/bureaucracy is out of control.

It seems like a step into the unknown by leaving the EU, but we should have done it years ago. Spend all the savings on improving the NHS.

This seems to be the view i'm taking Chris.

I remember when the "Common Market" was on the agenda back in the day which then seemed to be a good idea,just doesn't look as rosey as it was then.

Seems to be a free for all now,everyones hand in the till and get what they can get.

I would like someone from the "IN" side to put me right (simple English please)
