unbeliever Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 This is all nonsense. Arguments for staying in the EU. 1a. They're good folk and we should be best friends with them. 1b. They'll be cross and punish us if we leave 2a. There's been no loss of sovereignty 2b. There's no such thing as sovereignty. 3a. It will be good to be part of a European super-state 3b. We'll never be part of a European super-state. 4a. They don't interfere with UK law. 4b. Look at this lovely law they just made for us. 5a. The Euro is great and we should be part of it 5b. The Euro is a disaster but we'll never be part of it. 6a. It's a proper democracy honestly 6b. Democracy is over-rated 7a. It's really stable and protects us. 7b. It's really fragile and if we leave the resulting collapse will be bad for us. We've had most (but not all) of these on this thread multiple times. Did I miss anything?

That compares to the Brexit's argument - You can't trust the Germans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've struck out the arguments you've not had from serious debaters (IIRC...as it's a big thread by now, and I don't fancy dwelling back needlessly for the sake of contradicting your conceited post).

MikeFrank Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 This discussion is very much a good example of how the EU is. Endless discussions about minor issues like data charges. Of course lower charges are good for those who travel abroad a lot and go in hotels without internet access and they are on a secluded island with no internet cafes. These people are so important that the outside world will cease to exist if they're not available for contact a couple of hours a day. So I can appreciate how stressful it is for some people in this situation. It makes you wonder how we existed before mobile phones existed. I can't think of a better reason for voting to stay in than the effect this has on some accountant being tweetless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets take the UK back to the 1970s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hots on Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 The EU has done for Britain what the Premier league has done for English football. Think about it, what is English football now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On with the show That's very helpful. Now if the other remainers could do likewise I think the problem with the remain campaign will be crystal clear.

tzijlstra Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 The EU has done for Britain what the Premier league has done for English football. Think about it, what is English football now? The biggest, best paid football competition in the world by far. Great argument to stay in the EU, hadn't thought of that one, thanks Hots On.
