"Yes to remain • The 5th biggest economy needs to 2nd biggest economy in the world • Workers and consumers rights hard won will be dismantled if Brexit wins • Staying in Europe means you get a seat at the table to shape the EU you want - out means paying the tariffs, obeying the rules without a vote on it's future direction • The EU could be more democratic but actually it's voting system is better then the first past the post system here in the UK • Brexit means the end of the UK as Scotland and Wales will eventually detach from the UK and rejoin the EU So a big fat honking yes to Europe, to open travel and markets to human and workers rights to co-operation on climate change and the biggest problems all Europeans face!" Yes/no was all he asked for | |||

"The stakes are too high for a yes/no response!" In 4 weeks you're going to have to narrow it down to one of those responses. Ballot cards don't have sections for ifs and maybes. | |||

"What everyones thoughts on Europe? Just keep it to a one word response yes or no." Everyone on benefits will vote to stay in as frightened of what they will lose,which makes it hard for those of us that want an out vote. This is the same reason that Scotland voted to stay in uk | |||

"Sorry, not a one word answer, but Richard Dawkins reply just about sums up my feelings: "I am not entitled to an opinion on Brexit since I don't have a degree in economics or history. It is an outrage that ignoramuses like me are being asked to vote on such an important and complicated question which is way above our level of expertise. Nevertheless I shall vote to stay in Europe, applying the precautionary principle and because the arguments the leaving are mostly emotional, those for staying mostly rational and evidence-based. But I repeat, it is a disgrace that this important question has been put to plebiscite, apparently as a sop to UKIP-leaning members of the Tory party.. I believe in democracy but in parliamentary, representative democracy, not plebiscite democracy." The man is controversial but his intelligence is not in question. I've seen no evidence that Joe (or Joanne) Public is in any way qualified to decide on any other basis but an emotional one. You always have to consider who is providing the 'evidence' I personally have no idea who can be trusted to supply me with unbiased information. " If Richard Dawkins believed in Parliamentary democracy then he would vote to Leave the EU. No question about it the EU is fundamentally undemocratic. Uk Parliamentary democracy is being overruled and undermined by the EU. | |||

" I would say we are the 5th largest economy in the world in spite of the EU not because of it. The EU is holding us back and we can do much better outside The UK government introduced many workers and consumers rights long before the EU did. We also surpass the EU now in many areas such as maternity/paternity pay giving more paid leave than many other EU countries. We leave the EU, we can re-take our seat at the World trade Organistion table, where British representatives can negotiate on our behalf instead of faceless EU bureaucrats. We can do trade deals much quicker on a 1 to 1 country basis, rather than at a lumbering snails pace done by the EU which needs to get agreement between 28 member countries. Once we leave the EU we will no longer be subject to EU laws and EU rules. You already said the EU is undemocratic. Brexit does not mean the break up of the UK, if Scotland wants to join the EU on its own they will find they are blocked from doing so by Spain who said loud and clear during the Scottish referendum they would veto and block all attempts by an independent Scotland to join the EU because of the Catelonia issue of independence in Spain. A big fat honking yes to Brexit, to global trade and open markets with the whole world. To tackling climate change on a global level at the UN, and co-operation on a global level to tackle the biggest problems all humans face (not just Europeans). To committing our security to Nato, and not some dodgy ill thought out EU defence force run by the likes of Jean Claude Juncker and Donald Tusk, who have already failed on the Euro and who have failed on the migrant crisis. | |||

" Wrong - you were factually wrong in saying he said the EU was undemocratic. In fact he said the opposite and was right. Wrong about elections- I was writing about the EU elections which is why I wrote MEP not MP. The point being that the EU gives far more credence and respect to democracy than the waste of space UKIP MEPs deserve. " Brexit does not mean the break up of the UK, if Scotland wants to join the EU on its own they will find they are blocked from doing so by Spain Who knows - certainly not you Certainly not you either. " Nope I don't - but I can be honest about it and admit it, you seem to be committed to telling lies the whole time. It must be the UKIP training. A big fat honking yes to Bremain, to global trade using the 60 trade agreements already negotiated by the EU, access to the largest single market in the whole world. To a united approach across Europe for tackling climate change. To committing our security to Nato, with it's 22 members from the EU countries, to a positive European approach towards solving the problems caused by war and poverty on the borders of Europe. And while we're at it a big fat yes to: Freedoms and protections it's helped us to maintain in the labour market (like those holidays & working hour protection), Free access to the european market, The 60 or so existing trade deals world wide that the UK benefits from, The open market to services, the UKs biggest earner in the EU, Ability to travel freely for work or whatever reason. Cheaper air travel, Consumer rights for travelers who book package holidays, Access to emergency medical care with the European Health Insurance Card, Air passenger rights in cases of delays or cancellation of flights, UK air lines have the right to operate between EU states Cheaper mobile roaming charges falling to zero next year, Cleaner UK beaches. And of course straight bananas and cucumbers " Funny you should end on bananas, as most of what you just said was bananas. " All of it is correct and consists of benefits to the UK from being in the EU. The bananas were there for humourless UKIP fruitcakes. | |||

"Oops accidentally deleted my post. Economists overwhelmingly reject Brexit in boost for Cameron | Politics | The Guardian - http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/may/28/economists-reject-brexit-boost-cameron Pity then people on the same side as Cameron in this referendum don't even believe the Bullshit Osbourne and Cameron have been spouting about the economy. Nicola Sturgeon a staunch remain supporter said the claims made by Cameron and Osbourne were Overblown and not credible. Nicola Sturgeon said Cameron and Osbourne had insulted the intelligence of the British public with the claims they had been making about the economy. Even the pro EU Financial Times said "More likely the numbers are just made up". www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/05/23/nicola-sturgeon-warns-overblown-treasury-brexit-report-could-bac/" After looking at all the evidence available, The Treasury Committee in their report available from the house of commons library yesterday were disappointed with Osborne's use of £4300 as the per household damage to the economy of Brexit and have insisted that the numbers should be used as a range around the £4300 estimate— they say £3,200 to £5,400 is right as long as we're clear it's a reduction in GDP per household with a smaller effect on household income. That was a unanimous report from the committee including Brexit's John Redwood. Please keep that Brexit tax for yourself. | |||

"Sorry, not a one word answer, but Richard Dawkins reply just about sums up my feelings: "I am not entitled to an opinion on Brexit since I don't have a degree in economics or history. It is an outrage that ignoramuses like me are being asked to vote on such an important and complicated question which is way above our level of expertise. Nevertheless I shall vote to stay in Europe, applying the precautionary principle and because the arguments the leaving are mostly emotional, those for staying mostly rational and evidence-based. But I repeat, it is a disgrace that this important question has been put to plebiscite, apparently as a sop to UKIP-leaning members of the Tory party.. I believe in democracy but in parliamentary, representative democracy, not plebiscite democracy." The man is controversial but his intelligence is not in question. I've seen no evidence that Joe (or Joanne) Public is in any way qualified to decide on any other basis but an emotional one. You always have to consider who is providing the 'evidence' I personally have no idea who can be trusted to supply me with unbiased information. " Dawkins is an attention seeking, patronising twat. To answer the op. We are both voting out! | |||

If we remain EU and US use ttip and within 2 years the NHS is to be SOLD OFF, this is just awaiting the result of the referendum to go ahead.

" By leaving the EU, Britain will open itself up to the whole world beyond the borders of the EU. It's the remain side who have this little EU attitude and they can't see beyond the borders of the EU. " Oh I see. GREAT POINT! You mean leaving the largest single market IN THE WORLD, representing almost 25% of GLOBAL GDP, the easiest market for us to trade with because, over the last 20 years we have harmonised product standards, environmental standards and removed all trade barriers - by leaving that we can open our economy to the rest of the world. Yes, as Patrick Minford, the (only?) pro-Brexit economist and neo-liberal points out, we can open up our economy so we can remove all trade barriers - and as he says it will result in the complete elimination of all UK manufacturing jobs (as Chinese workers are far cheaper than European employees and have so few workers rights and China puts so few environmental ruleson its businesses) but it's OK because we can all work in 'the creative industries' in the future. It's wonderful that Patrick and his UKIP /Tory Nutter friends who lead Vote Leave hold the best interest of working people in this country so close to their hearts. So sad that some working people are taken in by them. | |||

"Yes to remain • The 5th biggest economy needs to 2nd biggest economy in the world • Workers and consumers rights hard won will be dismantled if Brexit wins • Staying in Europe means you get a seat at the table to shape the EU you want - out means paying the tariffs, obeying the rules without a vote on it's future direction • The EU could be more democratic but actually it's voting system is better then the first past the post system here in the UK • Brexit means the end of the UK as Scotland and Wales will eventually detach from the UK and rejoin the EU So a big fat honking yes to Europe, to open travel and markets to human and workers rights to co-operation on climate change and the biggest problems all Europeans face! I would say we are the 5th largest economy in the world in spite of the EU not because of it. The EU is holding us back and we can do much better outside The UK government introduced many workers and consumers rights long before the EU did. We also surpass the EU now in many areas such as maternity/paternity pay giving more paid leave than many other EU countries. We leave the EU, we can re-take our seat at the World trade Organistion table, where British representatives can negotiate on our behalf instead of faceless EU bureaucrats. We can do trade deals much quicker on a 1 to 1 country basis, rather than at a lumbering snails pace done by the EU which needs to get agreement between 28 member countries. Once we leave the EU we will no longer be subject to EU laws and EU rules. You already said the EU is undemocratic. Brexit does not mean the break up of the UK, if Scotland wants to join the EU on its own they will find they are blocked from doing so by Spain who said loud and clear during the Scottish referendum they would veto and block all attempts by an independent Scotland to join the EU because of the Catelonia issue of independence in Spain. A big fat honking yes to Brexit, to global trade and open markets with the whole world. To tackling climate change on a global level at the UN, and co-operation on a global level to tackle the biggest problems all humans face (not just Europeans). To committing our security to Nato, and not some dodgy ill thought out EU defence force run by the likes of Jean Claude Juncker and Donald Tusk, who have already failed on the Euro and who have failed on the migrant crisis.

"When you see Blair,cameron,brown,corbyn,kinnock,obama all calling for the IN nerds and for us to stay in EU you just know it is wrong!. OUT!,OUT!,OUT!." Considering those backing the "Out" campaign, I'm not sure that argument stacks up particularly well! | |||

" and isn't the world the worlds largest employment market? So, your children (if you have them) have the right to work in India, in China, in the USA, in South America? They must have an incredible number of nationalities and passports. Your apparent belief that we can go and work anywhere in the world without restrictions shows are informed you are on the issues. As well as UK employment law apparently. To make you happy though...the EU is the world's largest single employment market. It gives our children access to around 10 times more jobs than there are in the UK. what jobs? There aren't any. And be honest, how many of the 27 other countries do you think our children would want to work in? And if you think it is as easy to go and work in other EU countries as it is to come and work here then sorry, it is you who is ill informed" You really do spout rubbish, don't you. I can't speak for any of your children obviously, but I hope that any young person would welcome the experience to open their mind and live and work abroad - and certainly in any of the other 27 member states of the EU (where they already have the right to work). Unless of course they had been brought up by xenophobic parents who believed that Britain had nothing to give or to gain from the rest of the world and hadn't the brains to see that in an ever globalising world, their kids having no international work experience or exposure would hamper their children's future opportunities. What jobs? There aren't any. Really, the EU job portal currently list OVER 1 MILLION JOB VACANCIES ACROSS THE EU. Brexit Project Complete Bollocks again. | |||

Don't be silly! You know the Brexit plan. We leave the EU and the 27 countries unanimously (because each of those 27 countries have a veto on this) agree to give us whatever Boris and Farage want - full access to the biggest single market in the world worth nearly 25% of global GDP, no payments to the EU (actually they will probably PAY US to trade with us, because we are Great Britain and they need us much more than we need them) and no free movement of people but obviously our expats will have to be allowed to stay in their countries, because....well they are British. Yes, they will give us a much better deal than France or Germany has....after all, we are British. Leaders of the other 27 countries will probably let Boris shag their daughters for good measure, just to sweeten the deal..... Well, that's Brexit Plan A. They don't seem to have bothered developing a Plan B or C.... | |||

"When you see Blair,cameron,brown,corbyn,kinnock,obama all calling for the IN nerds and for us to stay in EU you just know it is wrong!. OUT!,OUT!,OUT!." And the prime ministers of India, Japan, Canada, Australia and the IMF and the OECD.... Yes, let's hunker down in our bunker and ignore the rest of the free world. Why on earth should we listen to them.....we are Brexit and we know everything much better than these so-called global experts | |||

"Sorry, not a one word answer, but Richard Dawkins reply just about sums up my feelings: "I am not entitled to an opinion on Brexit since I don't have a degree in economics or history. It is an outrage that ignoramuses like me are being asked to vote on such an important and complicated question which is way above our level of expertise. Nevertheless I shall vote to stay in Europe, applying the precautionary principle and because the arguments the leaving are mostly emotional, those for staying mostly rational and evidence-based. But I repeat, it is a disgrace that this important question has been put to plebiscite, apparently as a sop to UKIP-leaning members of the Tory party.. I believe in democracy but in parliamentary, representative democracy, not plebiscite democracy." The man is controversial but his intelligence is not in question. I've seen no evidence that Joe (or Joanne) Public is in any way qualified to decide on any other basis but an emotional one. You always have to consider who is providing the 'evidence' I personally have no idea who can be trusted to supply me with unbiased information. " Agree totally | |||
