Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

it's all a high stakes poker game

the eurocrats may threaten blood and thunder in the event of an "out" vote, but my bet is that that will not be the case

It's all down to what Merkel wants (or her bosses)

#2688 is a bit of an eye opener.



Give it up Haystack, you ol 5th columnist you.

Haystacks is an insider..He professes to be a Leaver, but he's far from it,
Everything he posts is Pro-eu.

We invoke article 50, and we have 2 years to agree any trade agreements,
there is NO reason why trade dosn't carry on as it is.

Anyone who says different is LYING and trying to deceive you.

Beware of the likes of Haystacks.

You are living on hope!

I don't give a fig about the likes of haystacks..

The fact is if we vote out the EU will bend over backwards to try and appease
us, but it should be resisted at ALL cost.

We shouldn't be taken in by their promises, they have lulled us into a false
sense of security over the past 40 odd years.

I don't know how many read this BB, but i'm concentrating on the letter's
section of my local paper, where i can reach thousands, and argue the cause
of Brexit, against those who are for remaining.

Fred, If you've got an argument put it up..Or shut the feck up!!

I've just caught up on the rubbish posted by fred..I'm free tomorrow, ALL day.

Once again you live in hope!

Put up or SHUT up..

Any new trade agreement has to be voted on by all the countries of the EU and a qualified majority is necessary otherwise no agreement.

They'll do as Frau Merkel tells them to do..

I wouldn't be so sure.

Ask the snake oil salesman.

Fifth 'In Dark' Over Economic Impact Of Brexit

Poll gives Brexit campaign three percentage points lead


Opinium survey also shows extent of age and class divisions between leave and remain camps

The leave campaign has picked up momentum and taken a three point lead over remain in the latest Observer/Opinium poll on the EU referendum. The Brexiters now stand on 43%, while 40% say they support the campaign to keep the UK in the union.

The poll suggests the remain camp has lost four percentage points in the last two weeks, during which Boris Johnson and Michael Gove have relentlessly campaigned on the theme of immigration.

The leave campaign appears to have picked up three percentage points. The potential in the leave campaign’s strategy is reflected in responses suggesting that two in five voters (41%) cite immigration as one of their two most important issues when deciding how to vote. Just over a third (35%) cite Britain’s ability to make its own laws without EU interference and 29% cite the impact of leaving on the UK economy.

Sonny boy, stop shouting.

It.

The population of EU is about 500 million and England 53million.

I think I prefer to sell into the larger regularised EU market.

Why not sell into the even wider global market, especially as the EU market is shrinking as a %age of it?

And how come its just 'England' now...It's the UK..65 million

Another post from fred, trying to distort..

In 2013 the population of the world was over 7 billion, why confine ourselves to 7% of the global market?
