melthebell Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Whatever they have done for the UK, the UK has paid for, you just don't get it do you. NO! you dont get it in your blind hate, we are not alone in this you know, we arent being picked on, theres 28 countries in the EU (cue the reply - soon be 27 chortle chortle) its a gang, we all chip in for the common good, and yes those with more, pay more, thats how it should be for the common good, again we arent alone in that.

Jeffrey Shaw Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Summary: we joined the EEC. It worked, more or less. It later became the EU with an overarching commitment to Ever Closer Union. That's where we alight, thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the coffers are empty who's going to chip in for you? It's OK being generous with someone else's money, it's a club not a gang or a charity, and not a good club at that, perhaps you'd like to give half your dole money to the EU, seems like you don't mind, there must be someone worse off.

Might not, but theres a possibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might not, but theres a possibility And they are your thoughts, I'd sooner wait and see rather than doom and gloom about what may or may not happen, do I see an advantage for staying in the EU, a big no, who needs enemies when you have friends like the EU picking your pockets.

Car Boot Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Whatever they have done for the UK, the UK government wouldn't have I guess it was the EU that brought in these laws to protect people then, and not sovereign British governments: The Old Age Pensions Act 1908. The National Insurance Act 1911. The Equal Pay Act 1970. The Sex Discrimination Act 1975. The Race Relations Act 1976. Disability Discrimination Act 1995. Sovereign British government's and trades unions have done more for the British people than any EU commission, which have been primarily concerned with empire building and ensuring profits keep flowing to big business.
