As to the vote in question, I am torn. I see lots of favourable things about belonging to the EU.......but strongly resent what I see as external interference in matters that should be our own affairs. I have further difficulty with my vote as my parents both live full time in France (and have done for years) whilst much of my work comes from outside the UK.

 

Dilemma!

I don't follow politics, never have.

They're all baby kissers and full of bull$&! £, vague in their promises and what they're gonna do in order for us all to prosper!

EU referendum? I watch one programme and I'm in, another and I'm out so I really don't know???

Nobody can really predict what will happen , in OR out....I think!

Today I'm 60/40 in favour of out, at least there'll less bul $&! ££ers running the country

When I heard about the original Land Rover line (ending with the Defender) was cancelled because it would not meet EU standards I shouted "England must leave now!" LOL

 

Bizarrely its not a decision we get to make we just let China buy everything but from an outsiders perspective Germany wields too much power within the EU. Its like you beat them in both great wars yet they now call all the shots. That bothers me and I dont even live there.

Ralley Pack 2000 it bothers a lot of people in Ireland also.. yes the Irish have travelled and lived in every country in the world. Most try to blend in and

contribute to the economy unlike the immagrants that have come from eu in the last 10 years.. polish alone have removed a lot on millions per week out of ireland

during the boom years which didnt cause the crash but helped some what. Yes there are some great polish and other eu folk now living and working

and becoming new Irish.Seems now we have to take more and more refugees like buramese ,vietnam,seria,etc.... we can not home our Irish homeless yet

must supply them houses translators social welfare etc.....

 

Me i became widowed 10 weeks ago but because we never married after 17 years im not entitled to widows and orphans pension, single parents allowance,heating allowance,shool allowance,

medical card ( yet im on a 19hr a week scheme because of the 13 year old )....

BUT a migrant gets all above ,if their partner died 3 weeks after coming, or if they are a same sex couple just joined in civil partnership 1 week before death....

 

All EU rules .....so you get some things from EU ( farmers etc) but its no good to normal folk

 

 

i wouldnt tell anyone how to vote but i would advise a lot of research before hand .... weigh up the pros and cons and if great britain will be great ever again ruled by

germany and an unelected body

Listening to the arguments and opinions  it seems that if we leave, the 350 billion per week saving is going to fix all the uk's shortages, NHS, education, farmers, etc, etc, it's going to have to stretch a long way! the government will probably use it anyway to pay off the national debt! and then say 'look what wev'e done' come the next election to get into power.... so nothing will change in that direction.

truth be told you elect a government every 5 years ?... But the country is run by unelected civil servants anyway regardless of election promises..

 

Europe is now too big to control by one nation which refuses to hand out equal power ,and with new world terrorists ans emmagration we have no chance

in the future as it seems... Ireland is quilty of a lot of wrong doings economy wise but was fuelled by foreign speculators and seems mostly german speculators which

although they gambled ,they were given their money back because europe said aww come on it wasnt a gamble it was a lone ,yet they never returned

the profits they made up to that time..

Yes im anti europe only because the country's within the super state have no control over their economy,finances,borders or emmigration... Irelands trading partners are mostly

the uk and the states yet we are controlled by german super state... look how many died in wars that never needed to happen as politics have worked to control instead...

I'm out, I live in the UK, I want crooked UK people deciding the fate/direction this country takes not not crooked foreigners. I get suspicious when I hear foreign politicians telling us why we're better off staying in the eu, I don't think for one minute other eu countries will stop trading with us, I don't think companies within the UK will stop trading with abroad? One of the stopping in campaigners even went so far as to warn of the posibility of another world war in Europe by us coming out? It was only 70 years ago that we stopped the Germans coming over here in there tiger tanks and messerschmitt's to control this country, now they just roll up in their fancy expensive cars and decide or fate!

First of all I'm not into politics, but with this referendum bolloxs going one cannot get away from it! One of the things that appears to be in the forefront is immagration, that's simple to cure in my mind. You can only come into this country if you are of any use to it, or you buy yourself in business and the likes if you don't fit that criteria then your not coming in Eu or non eu. Yes feel sorry for all those people escaping from war torn countries but did we evacuate our country during two world wars, did we bollox. Knuckle down and defend your rights. As for the trading of this country think that went out when the big companies sold out to foreign buyers because like as always will not invest for the future to busy living of there laurels of inventing/producing the best, we used to. Not any more. We are just a workforce making money for other people. Problably just written a load crap but there you go. Think it was Enoch Powell and the actor warren Mitchell used to say the right things and got shot down for it, but what they said years ago is coming true.

Just been watching parts of the debate on the box, there's a lot of reference made to Australia's immigration numbers being more than th UKs but what they failed to point out is for you to enter that country you need to have a profession that they need or have enough cash to buy your way in ! They refrain from giving all the info to suit there views. Coming out the EU does that stop people wanting goods from the UK.

They probably didnt mention that the high immigration created a tipping point that we cant back out from now. You have so many with their foot in the door that are permitted to then bring their families and it grows like wildfire. No politician has the courage to reign it in for fear of affecting the immigrant vote. But the end result is no one can afford housing anymore. We have the most ridiculous housing prices in the world. Only downtown Tokyo has worse housing prices that us. Your kids and grandkids will never be able to afford their own home. Two thirds of housing is purchased my new immigrants the remaining third is the target of Chinese investment groups hiding their money in ridiculously priced real estate. Its leaves only ten percent or so of housing for people who actually live and were born here but are simply priced out of it because of the market forces driven by the massive buyouts of the other groups. We have weak Government that wouldnt say no to high immigration targets. We lost. If you have weak Politicians you may loose too. One thing is certain however do you want other European countries setting those targets for you without a care how it even affects you? You have two chances to loose the immigration problem and one chance to get on top of it. Im surprised so many are falling for the stay in EU rhetoric. You did the really smart thing you keep your own currency so do you really think any country you trade with now is going to stop trading with you for leaving the EU? The only ones that may will be those very EU nations out of spite, with which case where they worth being part of in the first place?

 

I think Greece is a classic example of what to expect from the EU. Germany told them they had to cut their pensions and tighten their belts to an extreme that some cant even feed themselves. Then that same country who demanded the Greek people give up everything were told they had to accommodate and facilitate hundreds of thousands of refugees because that very same Germany chose to open their boarders. They basically told the Creeks to stop spending money and took most of their money then told them to somehow find the cash to look after thousands of refugees. Whats more insulting is the economic platforms at the heart of the Greek financial crises were directly caused from WW2 which the Germans caused in the first place. Seriously the EU is not run from Brussels its run from Berlin.  Why would anyone stand for that?
