Would you vote in?

[Sonoftheheir]

Not sure if this has been asked? If we were never in, would you want in now?

I've been very undecided until someone asked me this. My answer was no.

 

[Henarar]

No

Hmmmmm, very good point. I think my answer would be the same.

But would we be looking in to a large market that we struggle to break into, with little support from our government, and seeing how well the 'european' farmers are looked after ?

 

[Derrick Hughes]

No way in 100 years,
Thats my my main reason for wanting out,

If you look on supported agriculture as healthy, controlled by a body that changes direction at whim then fair enough
I suppose the biggest topics on here are not about farming but ones aid payments, says it all

Can't say as it would depend on the UK's situation outside. But if a referendum were to be held I would restrict it to the under 50's. They are the one's who would have to live and work with the consequences.

 

[RobFZS]

hmm, pay 8 billion net to a club that tells me what to do, where we send less as a share of trade to every year, where they force you to open your borders to anyone and everyone in a population of 500 million, sounds like a pretty crap deal to me.

What about 80y old farmers

What about them.

Most farmers never retire so under your system they have no say,

What about them.

 

[Colin]

It would depend on what state you were in, if you were on your knees from international competition and joining protected you then that would be an easy choice. So Eastern Europe wants in but the Swiss don't.

 

[Muck Spreader]

Well they should, and at 80 their grandchildren should be in charge of the farm.

 

[Derrick Hughes]

Well they should, and at 80 their grandchildren should be in charge of the farm.

And do you want his grandchildren to live 40 years on handouts like he has, to not have farmed like he wanted to farm but how he had to

So have you farmed livestock under 40 years of EEC control
