As I said I am not going to take part in this further, I will just refer you to a couple of things, namely the bar graph at the top of the page and Murdoch's signature, which I think sums things up pretty well in this case.

I'd rather be an idiot than an ostrich - ah yes, polls on here are always truely indicative of the entire population


How daft of me to ignore that "fact"

Re: EU - How will you vote given the latest "news"

It is easy for people to look at the EU through rose tinted glasses and miss the underlying picture.

Back in the 70's the UK was on it's backside the 3 day week, power cuts, wage restraint, hardly a week going by without another strike being called somewhere, the offer of joining a common market in 1975 looked like a good idea and most people believed that is what they were joining yet it's hard to find anyone who voted yes

Since then year on year the EU appears to justify it's existence by creating more and more red tape some of it bordering on crass stupidity did we really need "EC Commission Regulation No 2257/94" and no doubt there are many more similar regulations that are unworkable and / or create massive amounts of waste

If you look around the EU today Greece have been teetering on the edge of financial armageddon for a good while and there are a few other countries not far behind them should they fail, Shengen is causing all sorts of problems and disagreement with the rampaging migration from those crossing the Med to Greece all things considered it looks like a ticking bomb just waiting to go off

We keep on hearing the doom and gloom of how Brexit would affect the UK but how would Brexit affect the EU who would they stealth tax then that is assuming it survives to tax another day as the budgetary black hole would have to be filled by someone but there aren't that many paying in now

There are a lot of questions and unfortunately there are not many reliable and credible answers from either side

So what's your problem with 2257/94?

Well it's common knowledge that I'm in the remain camp, however this intelligent, thought provoking and balanced video by those nice Grassroots Out people have made me think again.
I defy any of you 'Inners' to watch and say you're not swayed by their arguments.

Couldn't watch it anymore after 30 seconds, hope it had a happy ending

Re: EU - How will you vote given the latest "news"

What has Scotland's voting to remain part of the UK got to do with the UK voting to remain part of Europe, exactly??

the parallels are quite uncanny.
scaremonger about the unknown bits to the general public.
a blatantly biased media making all sorts of misinformation up(at best)
the promise of jam with your tea if you stay but with no firm details until you vote how you are told.
oh aye the irony isn't lost on me.
diamond dave is up till 5am getting johnny foreigner told and then comes back to tell us we are better off in?wtf is that about?
sounds to me like its a done deal whatever way it goes.
big boris signs as the exit team bogeyman.staged?wwe staged.
the same boris who wants to run a water viaduct from scotland to the "breadbasket"of the south east of england as one of his crackpot ideas.
as a voter I'm undecided still,but if we do exit i agree that there will not be a EU to be outside of anyway.

Re: EU - How will you vote given the latest "news"

By the way, just to draw another, and very appropriate parallel with the Scottish referendum, one of the worst examples of fearmongering was the claim that the only way Scotland could stay in the EU was by voting No. That could look pretty hollow soon. Anyhoo, I picked this up elsewhere:

Mythbusters - Richard Corbett

Read it and pooh pooh it.

Ive read it as well and Tels right. Anything that ends like this:
It was Margaret Thatcher who said that being in Europe hadn’t made the French any less French and on this she was right -– being in Europe hasn’t made us any less British either! is bollox in my opinion.

I read it too,Better all change our votes to stay cos nobody will buy or sell us owt if we arnt in Europe. Hmm I think not. Goverments are better at ground level not Brussels and the numbers of beurocrats may be fewer than leeds council but they have more say. Its the power that counts and we need it back:hurray:

So, I win my bet with a mate. I guaranteed the responses would be rebuttal without any actual rebuttal. Not one single factual detail.
