  • I see the EU, and the UK in the EU, as a excellent way for the UK to reassert itself in the international arena (plus leading the way in alternative resourses infrastructure set-up). I'm not saying all our problems will be solved, but we stand a better chance of UK people being represented by the EU, than by under the umbrella of the US - which is the current situation.

    Of-course, getting EU politicians in that will do that is the big question.

  • The UK wil loose its influence in the international arena if it continues to be int he EU. I fail to see how being 1 member state of 27 is having influence.We will simply be railroaded into decisions, outvoted time and time again in the council - what better example than the working time directive. And as the Union expands so will the UK influence be diluted further. We will become a complete non entity, and lose almost total control of our own destiny, and no longer live in a democracy.

  • The EU economy has the potential to be one of the strongest in the World. This puts the UK, if it is in the EU, in a great position, globally.

    This is what I meant by economic security.

  • We are living in a Global economy not just a European one. Being in the EU restricts Britain doing business with the rest of the world

  • We Norwegian's don't want in the EU, but our politicians is trying to change our law's so they can push us in, even do the ppl of Norway say no! We don't have that much power over our government anymore... Lets just hope the EU crashes before we get there...

  • EU politicians tell lies! Allthey want is another soviet-union[EUSSR]. We need to leave before we all end up on our arses. EU politicians only serve themselves they are quite happy to "Sell us down the drain", they only want their perks & pay,they then have the audacity to ask us for a pay rise or, a big fat pension! This EU is wrecking nations with their arrogance. We in the UK never get a referendum, it is forced upon us by the "Liberal-elite", we must leave now.

  • When was this recorded? The makers of topical political videos might find it useful to put some sort of date reference on them, so that we can put them into perspective whne we view them years after the events they refer to have passed.

  • me must get out of the eu NOW!

  • @BRITLEGEND77, So in answer to your question; there's nothing the fuck wrong with me, I just think that 'Britain' will be swallowed by policies between BRIC, EU and the US. And if we're not a major player in the EU, we're just a reminiscing about 'the good old days' and picking up the scraps.

  • All we've got is the remains of the Commonwealth, and Africa is going to the highest bidder in case you haven’t noticed - they 'aint following any patriotism motivated loyalty towards us.

    Rule Britannia is great when you're the biggest empire in the world, not when you a modern competing overpopulated/bloated-economy nation constantly dwarfed by states with bountiful resources and growing economies.

  • @BRITLEGEND77, Patriotism is the hiding place of the cruel said Oscar Wilde. Truth is, without the quoting of dead gay guys, Britain is a nation that needs to think on a grander scale. Independent Britain is never going to be a world player again; we're just destined to be a nation of bank managers. We have a decreasing industrial sector that can't compete with South America, China, Russia, India and the US.

  • independent UK = USA's bitch, i fucking hate it. GO EU!!!!!
