Pro's And Cons Of Leaving The Eu

[kanny 20,611]

So with the in or out the EU thread running I thought it would be a good idea to run this topic of the back of it.. So what do you see as the negatives and positives of leaving the EU. There's the obvious like controlled immigration ect but I think it would be interesting to hear peoples options on other things like effect on trade and movement for instance. Being a humble cabinet maker and not a market analysis I can't claim to have my head around it all.

The NHS has a chance of surviving without tax going through the roof

 

We can keep the pound..if the vote goes for IN then I think we will eventually be dissolved fully into it

 

Basically we can be just like the numerous other countries who are not part of the EU and seem to get along and do ok

Controlled immigration at the moment is an oxymoron.

I hear alot of people saying it will effect trade but Europe are still going to want to sell to us and buy our goods also...so I'm not to sure what to make of that one?

Before he moved to a different part of the country one of my regular customers was a very well-known retired government figure. I'll not get political and mention names or parties but he was famous- or infamous- for his "what you see is what you get"attitude and straight-talking.

I came to know him because his house was also plagued with mice on a regular basis but that's by the by. Though once ,indicating my tub of rodent bait he wryly commented,"We could do with some of that in Whitehall."

He said that the joining the EU was a tremendous mistake that meant efficient government by any political party was impossible due to Britain not being allowed to tailor its Laws and policies to its own needs and the horrendous cost to the treasury . I can't remember the figure he quoted but the daily financial drain was staggering.

Forget the cons what are the pros what is the EU doing for the ordinary man in the street because they damp well seem to be making my life harder than it could be

It doesn't matter if we're in Europe or not all Eastern European countries said that they would not take any refugees because their countries didn't have a Muslim background and any Muslims would change the country and they would not integrate. All Eastern Europe more than happy to accept eu money so why didn't the original members say our ball you play by our rules. Also if we got out I think those cheese eating surrender monkeys would build a bigger camp for the economic migrants and even help them onto the trucks. Plus do we send 5million poles back if so there might be a lot of English being repatriated from France Spain Portugal etc. what we need is a leader with balls

I wonder what would happen to all the pensioner ex-pats in the Med if we leave the EU

it`s time to get out, we voted to enter a common trading market, not a EU superstate, loads bleat on and on about how much money we get from them every year but that's a drop in the ocean compared to how much we put in, as for trade, no company here or over there is going to refuse business

the only leader we`ve ever had who had balls when dealing with the EU strangely enough, didn't have any

Nothing. If they can pay their way they would be able to stop, if not and our Goverment can't come to an agreement to pay their pensions out there then tough titties!
