Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13732724 but as a yank, could those of you guys in the EU explain how being in the EU has made life good and bad for you guys? There's no good, only richer countries who work hard and can't retire until they're 66 paying for countries like France, socialists with huge state employers retiring at 55/60 with fat pensions, and Greeks who fiddle everything and don't pay a penny in taxes. Then there's the wonderful idea of free right of residence in every EU country, which means immigrants all head straight for - you've guessed it - the UK. |

The UK has to give the EU something like 50 million a day, and it has to allow other EU countries to fish UK waters contributing to a net loss in export.. we have to comply with EU regs on import export to non EU countries and all sorts of nonsense thats without all the funny EU laws we have to adhere too. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 27455991 United Kingdom 11/10/2012 02:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | SENIOR Eurocrats were openly speculating last night that Britain could soon quit the European Union. Quoting: Tess2012 Diplomatic sources admitted that a summit of European leaders scheduled for later this month may have to be scrapped because of David Cameron’s threat to veto an inflation-busting increase in the Brussels budget. And as the bitter row deepened, the sources went further by suggesting the dispute could “quickly” result in the UK’s exit from the EU. One said: “We’re working to reach an agreement but everything indicates that it is impossible to overcome the British veto. Prime Minister Cameron has gone too far and will not come back. The possibility of Britain’s exit from the EU, as quickly as possible, is no longer considered taboo.” Tory MPs reacted with delight. Peter Bone said: “For the first time ever, a Brussels official seems to have spoken the truth. The PM is standing up for the British people in opposing this huge increase in our payments to the EU. [link to www.express.co.uk] Without the UK's £37million a day input, the EU's toast! of course ,we are getting out because we are not in control of the 27 + countries so they are kicking us out not we British going out. the Germans always wanted us out, same with the rest in the EU nobody wants us in control anymore. i cant blame them. i think every European country should just return back to normal without the EU |

Check out the website do a little research, the future is what we want, not what the Eaton boys decide in their interests! Fact of the matter is UKIP and other political parties and groups have been asking for referendums on europe on constitutions and electoral reform for decades, we the people have never been given it. Its taken UKIP 15 years to start polling at around a measly 10%, which might have increased enough hopefully by the next election to start getting MP's in parliament and possibly even cause defections and enact change. The system literally has to be changed from within. Another group has formed recently which is called, 'we demand a referendum' id image it exists to split the UKIP vote at the next general. People are not understanding that you need MP's annoying the shit out of the rest of the MP's in the commons and getting in the middle of every tiny piece of legislation or you will be ignored. It doesn't matter how many petitions you deliver or how many 100 thousand protest votes you lodge, the only way to get change is to get enough MP's to stop labour or the conservates having a majority independently. A new party would need people standing in hundreds of towns to be able to even have a shot, it would need millions of pounds to increase awareness and campaign for votes, its never going to happen and is a waste of time and effort. With the system we have now it would take 20 years to get close unless their was a huge shift in politics. I honestly believe people have four realistic choices with the next election. Labour Conservative Lib Dem or UKIP.. Nobody else will even get a sniff. At best UKIP may displace some tory and some weak labour seats. If the people are stupid, labour will win a majority and get back in, if the people are smart its probable neither labour or the tories will have enough to form a government and the lib dems will either form with the conservatives or labour, im not even sure UKIP will have enough to even impact government yet, they may get a large chunk of the national vote ( maybe as much as 15%), but i dont think they will win enough seats yet to impact the status quo. What i do expect is the Lib Dems may drop as low as 8% in polls but will retain strong seats and lose weak ones. |
