[QUOTE="thesilentone, post: 2189374, member: 6194"] Ashtree makes a good point. Unless we embrace this referendum and get out of the EU what is the point. The British people are by Heritage, Islanders, that is part of our being. In simple terms, the EU is about being on a World stage Politically, that is why we know in our hearts we should be out, but fear of the unknown may let the head win. Last night's question time summed it up well, the loyal Conservative politician trying her hardest to scare us all into believing it will take up to a decade to re-negotiate trade deals....what twaddle. As the lady Entrepreneur at the other end of the table stated, this is two way street, with many key suppliers and manufacturers in Europe sending goods to the UK. The Federalisation of Europe is not good for us in the UK, having a combined economy the size of the US and ' grabbing ' countries before the Russians are there first. Monetary Union will not, and cannot work unless we have economic Union, unless of course we have a Euro Currency for every member state. How can a Union work when one member has an average National income 10 times greater than another, where would you go ? The World is changing, what was the affluent West is over, the World Powerhouse is now China, like it or not, we can bark on about human rights all we like, it does not change the fact, they have the Worlds money. The EU is a fat lazy lumbering beast that tries to protect itself with rules and regulations that we don't like but can do nothing about. Within the EU we have massive over production and surplus that has been dumped on the World market anywhere and everywhere. We (the EU) make the last round of sanctions on our Russia even tighter, and as farmers we know the results as commodity prices plummet. We blame others (like China) who are gearing up to meet demand (from Russia) and once that market has gone, only politics will get it back. There are 60m people on this little Island, with 5% unemployment that is a hell of a lot of tax revenue. Our economy would flourish outside the EU as we are well placed to export our goods and services worldwide. Time to bite the bullet and make the right decision for our Children's future..................OUT !! [/QUOTE]
