Title: Nearly half of all voters want Britain to leave the European Union
Post by: Reece on May 19, 2013, 07:56:07 pm
Asked the exact question Conservatives want to put the public in the 2017 referendum – “Do you think that the UK should remain a member of the EU” – 46 per cent opt to come out, a higher figure than in other recent surveys.
Just 30 per cent say they want to remain.
In a further boost for the eurosceptic cause, 44 per cent want an “in/out” referendum immediately, although 29 per cent are prepared to wait until 2017, David Cameron's preferred option.
David Cameron (31 per cent) is the party leader most trusted to negotiate with the EU on Britain’s behalf. In second place is Nigel Farage, marginally ahead of Ed Miliband, although both men are on 18 per cent when numbers are rounded up. Nick Clegg is languishing on just four per cent.
The headline figure using ICM’s “Wisdom Index” method – which asks voters to predict the result of the next general election rather than which party they support – puts Labour just three points ahead of the Tories, the party’s narrowest lead since the index was launched last year.

Labour fell four points from last month to 32 per cent, with the Conservatives down one on 29 per cent and the Liberal Democrats also down one on 16 per cent.
Voters believe Ukip will win 15 per cent of the vote in the 2015 general election – a high figure which underlines the party’s recent good results in parliamentary by-elections and local council ballots.
*ICM Research interviewed an online sample of 2,017 adults aged 18+ on 15-16th May 2013. Interviews have been weighted to the profile of all adults.

More than half, the EU is nothing but a drain on our economy and a massive inflow of migrants. In 2012 ALONE, 25,000 Albanians Romanians were arrested in London for stealing from/rigging ATM machines, thats London alone, imagine the statistics for the whole UK, this 1 problem would not happen if we were not part of the EU, not to mention all the lazy ones who come here just to have 8 kids and sit on the benefits meant for their children.

Vote for UKIP! :mad:

Want to go out? No problem but....
- all trade agreements that the UK benefits from in EU will be voided. Export to the EU will be taxed with import duties.
- all benefits for easy passport control, possession of goods and businesses will be null and void
- all money that the EU has promised to invest in UK projects will have to be paid the UK citizens instead.

Tell this to anyone of Ukip and they will proclaim that they want to go back to times of the EEC, not abandon everything. Why? Because they want to keep the benefits and just look for a way to divert the blame for bad government to the EU.

While they are at it, they might as well make Scotland independent so they no longer have to pay for Welsh losses...

I don't even know how I feel about this anymore.. or rather, I don't think I care enough to form a strong opinion.
There are advantages either way, but frankly I think I'd still rather be out.

The government needs to publicize a simple leaflet which explains CLEARLY the more important points of what we get out of the EU now and why we should be IN and another side of what the EU is stopping us from doing and why we should be OUT. People are just forming opinions based on what they see when they probably don't know the facts.

A better trading market would be within the commonwealth, who have a British culture or a variation and most speak English, along with those who were formally part of the commonwealth.  Besides, most of the EU need our trade as much as we do, so the idea that as soon as we leave the EU would mean we wouldn't be able to trade with the rest of Europe is absurd.

Going out? No problem, heres some reasons to,
- The UK puts more than £40,000,000 into the EU EVERY SINGLE DAY for no clear reason.
- The UK would cut it's more than 600,000(out of date number) incoming migrants per year way down.
- The EU costs British families up to/more than £1,200 more a year in higher shopping bills.
- The UK would be able to negotiate more trade deals with the global community, not just the EU.
- The UK could certify that ALL laws are made in the UK, and not by some unelected moron in the EU.
- Abu Qaterrorist would have been dealt with long ago without the EU's shit ass policies getting in the way.
- The UK's fishing industries could finally get it's oceans back and actually make some money.
- The UK could finally turn back into a democracy, not a dictatorship lead by Brussels.

I support what Monkey said, the UK needs to trade more with the commonwealth, infact, the UK needs to focus everything on the commonwealth, it's a massive union with huge potential, and that potential isn't being grasped because the EU is too busy being dictated by the EU.

We can either be at the centre of Europe, or outside of it: not on the fringe.

If anything we should have pushed ourselves into the heart of the Union at the very beginning, and therefore  having assured ourselves a greater say in European Affairs from the start.

Yet, we have failed to do that, and the Conservatives have pushed the country into a difficult position, and one that will perhaps either win them or lose them the next general election.

I for one would argue against leaving the EU, and have to agree with this:

Want to go out? No problem but....
- all trade agreements that the UK benefits from in EU will be voided. Export to the EU will be taxed with import duties.
- all benefits for easy passport control, possession of goods and businesses will be null and void
- all money that the EU has promised to invest in UK projects will have to be paid the UK citizens instead.

While they are at it, they might as well make Scotland independent so they no longer have to pay for Welsh losses...

Though, as obviously, we here in the United Kingdom live in a democracy, the public should be consulted, and allowed to vote on the issue, though:

The government needs to publicize a simple leaflet which explains CLEARLY the more important points of what we get out of the EU now and why we should be IN and another side of what the EU is stopping us from doing and why we should be OUT. People are just forming opinions based on what they see when they probably don't know the facts.

The general public need to be made aware to pros and cons of leaving, or staying within the EU. Then, trusted to vote on the issue, right?

Are you aware what the Commonwealth is?
It's a construct, an attempt by our imperialistic forefathers to maintain control/ influence over previous British colonies. It's merely a honorary creation, and has no real trade or economic value.

It doesn't have anything special about it as it stands, apart from the fact they are all related to the greatest country in the world. :D But the UK, and all of the commonwealths independent nations could turn it into a massive economic and military superpower which actually fights for democracy and peace, unlike the US who just fights to defend the petrodollar, it has too much potential to be left untouched.

Why would we want to? The Eurozone is a complete and utter mess, the UK did a good thing by not joining it.
Not to mention the fact that the UK gets to keep a bit of it's Britishness by not joining.

Though, how would that be led? Would it be any different to the EU?

Plus, if that happened wouldn't we just be restoring the British Empire?

Rather than a provincial alliance of countries, our energies should be combined and focused to create a more efficient United Nations, that could promote worldwide trade, and military cooperation.

Because maintaining a single currency between so many wildly different economies is a deeply flawed concept that has bankrupted numerous nations in the last few years. The only thing that kept us from the same fate recently was the strength of the pound.

tl;dr the euro sucks

It would be lead by the presidents/prime ministers of every country on 1 board and all countries would keep their own currencies.
The EU is the exact opposite of that, and that is why it's falling, quickly.

It wouldn't be restoring the British Empire as all countries of the commonwealth would keep their identities, leaders, currencies and control over their own countries, it would just be alot closer and work together to solve 1 issue at a time.

Greece isn't really bankrupt because they joined, though they would be better off if they never did join, Greece is bankrupt because when they did join, and got their 1billion of Euros(?) from the EU, they completely blew it on everything and anything, instead of investing it in logical things.

Now for the immigrants.
The UK is not part of the Schengen treaty, which means it has its own border control to blame for illegal immigrants, not the EU.
Also most immigrants come from Commonwealth countries and are eligible for a UK passport by law.

The UK is a constitutional monarchy with a system where a single party controls the Government. Hardly democratic in the way it was originally meant.

The monarchy has no say in the UK, and the single party which controls the government was elected via a vote, and correct me if I'm wrong, majority voting is democracy, we can't play the EU for illegal immigrants, but we can blame the EU which forces us to have open border for the 'migrants' which come from Europe.

Yes one government controls the main government but in order for a law to be introduced it must first go through two houses - the Commons and the Lord's before going on to be law after Royal assent.

Some I do agree with but then again every county in the UK has an elected representative for them which stands in Parliament. If you have an issue you can go to them and talk about it so they may raise it in Parliament. But then again if it goes against their party policy then they are unlikely to raise it in debate.

More than half, the EU is nothing but a drain on our economy and a massive inflow of migrants.

Quote
Research published by University College London in July 2009 showed that EU migrants made a "substantial net contribution to the UK fiscal system", paying 37 per cent more in taxes than they received in welfare payments. However, "EEA national(s) who are economically inactive, including A8 and A2 nationals will not generally be entitled to income-related benefits". Researchers found that, on average, A8 migrants were younger and better educated than the native population, and that if they had the same demographic characteristics of natives, would be 13 per cent less likely to claim benefits and 28 per cent less likely to live in social housing.

Quote
From the fiscal point of view, this immigration has not been at all a burden on the welfare system. Rather, it has contributed to strengthen the fiscal position

And exactly that is how it works in the EU as well. Every country has a democratic representation of all parties elected in the European elections.
Apart from that all countries take turns at actually leading the EU within regular intervals.
While it is a prime example of bureaucracy, the EU goverment is fully and completely democratic.

I mean 25,000 Albanians Romanians arrested in 1 YEAR in London ALONE for stealing from ATMs, not sure about you, but I think thats a pretty major crime.
Nigel Farage did say, Albania Romania is a corrupt mess ran by criminal organizations and should never have been allowed to join the EU.

Won't deny it, California is the biggest of them all and it's a cesspool. The way its run, they're trying to appeal to illegal immigrants and doing construction projects that they don't have money for ($60billion high speed rail project) and the fact there's hints of corruption running around.

The states that are net contributors like Texas think about independence. Just like in the EU those who contribute have people shouting about it.

In the end you should not forget that until 2007 there was not a single person doubting the EU, and the single reason people are talking about exiting is that they need a diversion for the local mismanagement.
Reality is the only way you can change something is by having interest in your representatives in the EU, and take part in the elections for them.
Another reality is that every country has already signed away independence to a level that is irreversible without the whole EU being taken apart.

So many pro's and con's of leaving and staying in the EU. I speak (type) from a totally biased perspective, as my pilot's license is an EU-only one. If we left the EU, I could only fly within the UK...but the European Aviation Safety Agency have been tightening the ropes on flying anyway, so it could refresh flight within the UK if we were to leave.

On an economic point of view, I see no reason why we should stop trading with EU countries if we left, but then again, a lot of the support we could currently call upon would be lost.

Whether we are in the EU or not, the UK needs to find something. Something to lead. We used to rule the seas. Later the skies. Then, we had the Industrial Revolution.
With companies all going abroad, we're missing out on a lot...We can't expect to be a leading power when we have masses of debt, and an industry which, let's face it, is really not the best.

Basically, I'd say it doesn't matter whether we leave or not, but the UK needs a kick-start.

Instead of contributing you would be receiving help. And of course half of your bank accounts would be confiscated. Well that would make those Albanians leave....

Perhaps you should first take care of those 'ADULTS' before pointing at the EU.

Albania is a corrupt mess ran by criminal organizations and should never have been allowed to join the EU.
To start off with, Albania is not even in the EU and proves to show that you have no idea what you're talking about. Second of all, Albania is currently one of the best countries in the Balkan that has improved in many fields, one of them being in economics.

Quote
Right and the 25,000 Albanians that stole from ATM's in London arnt a drain on police resources and our economy, ok.
I don't even know if this is true considering I haven't heard anything about it, but even if it is, let's just blame those 25,000 Albanians for all the problems over there, and for the upcoming problems in the future.

The UK contributes alot to the EU, and we arn't getting enough benefits in return to give us a reason to stay, so why would we want to?

Germany and France contributes more than UK, and we don't complain. We try to find solutions, and not giving up. EU is something that needs time to construct and optimize.

In 2001 there were 122.500 Albanians living in the UK, the number has not risen since.
Also Albania is NOT a member of the WU, it is in applicant status.
Another lie by Nigel....
He said Albania Romania is a corrupt mess and should not have been able to join the EU at all, that is not a lie, thats the truth.

Fact remains that the 25,000 Albanians Romanians arrested in London last year, still came from the Albania to the UK, what does that say?
It says we can expect alot more Albanian criminals if the EU allows the open border policy for Albania, I'm not saying all Albanians Romanians are criminals, but there is a MASSIVE criminal problem in Albania Romania, and that problem is already spreading to other countries when the open border policy hasn't even happend yet.

Instead of contributing you would be receiving help. And of course half of your bank accounts would be confiscated. Well that would make those Albanians leave....
:lol: The UK has already condemned what happend in Cyprus, I doubt they would do it here under any circumstances.

Perhaps you should first take care of those 'ADULTS' before pointing at the EU.
It seems to me the internal problems in the UK are far worse as anything regarding the EU. But people like Farage use the old tactic of pointing at an external factor they know will not disappear so they never get to the task of acutally doing what they shout about.
Nigel runs the UK Independence Party, what do you expect? The main problems do not lay with the UK, though we do have many problems at home, the main problem is the EU, it's nothing but a distraction, without it, our government might actually be able to focus on what goes on here in the UK.

Look what the EU has done to Westminister, they spend all their time discussing gay marriage and other stupid things which IMO, do not matter at all, and why is that? Thats because the EU has taken all the important things which used to happen in Westminister, and deal with them themselves, without the UK ever having a say in any of it.

Germany and France contributes more than UK, and we don't complain. We try to find solutions, and not giving up. EU is something that needs time to construct and optimize.
Thats because everything important happens in Germany, and France, well France, you need to start complaining, before you turn into a right shithole.

Mikal as you see you are making statements that are simply unfounded.\
As for Romanians: in 2009 there were 58.000 of them living in the Uk, less than Albanians. Now you may believe that 50% of the Romanians are arrested, but I am sure reality is different and if you would find a transcript of the speech even Nigel Farage would not have said that.

By the way, you are aware that the EU is paying the salary of Nigel Farage, as he is a British representative in the EU parliament? Now if the EU was a dictatorship, would they allow their opposition to be part of their parliament?
Think of that and then see what weight really to give.

You want the problems solved? Get to work, create new things and create jobs.
Take the UK out of the crisis, and other countries will follow.
The alternative is not an alternative. If you feel your boss spends too much on unneeded things you can resign and sit at home without money, or try to make him see things your way by facts.

Tell me, who elected President Van Rompuy?
And if they are paying Nigel, then yes, they are paying their opposition, as he runs UKIP, a party whos main goal is getting the UK out of the EU.

If you have to believe the figures, for every crime 5 Romanians are caught.
And 1.5% of all of them land in jail.

That is not a problem of Romanians I am seeing there, nor of the EU....

The same debate is going on in my country aswell as in the UK. The current situation of the southern states within the EU is facinating, and a little scary. Unfortunately, it is all about politics, and the bureaucracy in Brussels. The EU have tried to set a basic economy onto all European states which is not possible, as all states varies geographicaly, demographicaly and economic.

Unfortunately, what the EU has done, is to cut in the public sector in most countries that suffer hard from the economic crisis. Privatisation of hospitals, schools, energy, water supply, industry...

They should have learned from Iceland. Iceland was at rock bottom a few years ago. Just as Greece, Spain, Cyprus and so on.

The EU is unfortunately a dead project, and not democratic at all. Moving the democracy, in UKs position, from London to Brussels is very undemocratic. Who knows the UK best? Citizen within the UK, or bureaucrats in Brussels?

It is a problem, but shows rahter the inefficiency or bad statistical data of the Britsh law enforcement as anything to do with the EU.

Think about it. For every crime comitted by Romanians (5313) they catch five people. However for 5313 crimes only 494 are in jail, meaning that 98.5% of people caught in relation with a crime seem to go free, of the 27725 people caught 27329 are sent home.
That has nothing to do with a problem of the EU...

And more bullshit...

The EU has not cut any public sector, it has been the decision of local governments to earn quick money and push away responsibility.
Every state has its own possibility for most laws, the only requirement is that they must open the laws for fellow EU citizens. Every state can make their own budget, own spending and own taxes. What is required however is that they do not overspend their income by more than 3%. Which by itself is already too much. If you spend every month more than you earn, it will not go well.

Countries did try to learn from Iceland. What did Iceland do? Simply denied all people who invested money in their banks and took the amount to themselves.
Cyprus did the same, others may follow.
Sure if you owe everyone money and decide to tell them you will never repay, your own situation suddenly improves.

The EU is a completely democratic project and every citizen of every country has had the right to vote for all that happened and is still happening.
But if you have a lot of money, you do not care your neighbour drives a Mercedes. However if you have little or none, suddenly you want to know how he pays for it...

The EU has huge benefits, as it has removed inner passport control, created an easy market for companies to trade on so they can compete on a global scale.
The Euro is accepted in China as much as  the USD and in general found to be more stable.

Disbanding the EU or the Euro currency is not a magic solution. First of all the direct costs are huge, in a time that most governments are already out of money. Second IMHO if a country leaves, they should not keep the favourable trade conditions but indeed be put on a level like China or Bangladesh, meaning their products will rise 14% in price for their EU customers.
So where would this money come from? The EU?  :roll:

You guys need to stop reading the Daily Mail and get your head back into the real world where it belongs. Though I do support leaving the EU, I'd like to know how much any Brit here has thought about it in any detail.

To those claiming "immigrants steal all our jobs": I'd like to see how many natives would do the kind of work that the European migrant workers are doing... picking produce on farms and packing it, working in factories, washing cars, sweeping the roads, shovelling your shit for (often) less than the minimum wage. All the while people sit on unemployment benefit because they don't want to do such work, even though it's often readily available.

Will also be interesting to see how things work out as regards travel and visas. Those who currently live abroad on British passports (on the Costa Del Crime, for example) might well be sent back if they don't meet new immigration critera. I like the thought of ghostly-white pasty-looking Welshmen moaning because they don't have their visa to go and get drunk and sunburnt...

Wonder how long it'll take after leaving for the media to be full of "bad decision to leave" and all that crap.

I don't mind either way - I can always travel around on my Polish passport...

While I agree that some aspects of their community project are a little unrealistic, not all of it is a bad idea. Many farmers, for example, would be unable to survive without the land and farming subsidies granted by the EU. If they can't, then it's British produce gone down the pan.

I read something in El País yesterday which, after watching some stuff from the EU parliament, made me think about the whole situation. I'll see if I can scan the article for you.

What'd be interesting is who'd be eligible to vote in such a referendum. Just British citizens? Or like in some local elections, EU citizens and other residents from different countries with a residency visa?

Only British born people should be allowed to vote in such referendum, it's our country, why should those from outside influence a vote which could do more good for their country and travel than for us British people and what we actually want.

Why is so many anti-immigration friendly? Our country suffer from Nazism, Our third biggest party in Sweden wants to reduce the immigration by 90 percent, for 40 years ago, they was all wearing Nazism symbols, now the changed and tries to fit into the society, but they still got same concept when it comes to politics.

People wants to quit EU due the immigration, because it costs and because the individuality feels humiliated by the "bad welfare", the question is, do you really live in such horrible condition that you can't let new people inside the border? Don't you care about the country and what it brings for opportunities to have a big population?

I'm probably the only soul in Sweden who wants more immigration, who wants to open it totally! It would cost alot, yes. But it would bring in 5-10 years if not shorter time, a great economical boost! In five years, Sweden will be grown to 10,000,000 people and I hope it will be grown a lot more.

We already takes in a lot of asylum searches, the number is between 50,000 to 60,000(statistic from the state immigration-service)  per year, and are one of the country who takes in the most people per year.

We swedes are loyal to the EU and we know the immigration itself has nothing to do with EU, but with the political parties.

So is it a Muslim problem or generally the immigrants at fault? I can't seem to get your point rather than you just randomly throwing hate on foreigners in Britain.

There are only 1,500 Mosques in Britain, while you have over 30,000 churches. You are not being forced to take Islam nor go to any Mosque, so I once again fail to see how you're "losing your culture".

Poland and Romania is a long time back but Pakistan? Yes.

From Wikipedia:
Quote
The modern state of Pakistan was established on 14 August 1947 (27 Ramadan 1366 in the Islamic Calendar) in the eastern and northwestern regions of British India, where there was a Muslim majority.
Upon independence, King George VI became the King of Pakistan.
Nawabzada Liaquat Ali Khan, one of the founding fathers and the first Prime minister of Pakistan, presenting the national flag in the first constituent assembly
The Minar-e-Pakistan, a symbol of Pakistan's independence
The Pakistan Monument in Islamabad.

After independence, the President of the Muslim League, Mohammed Ali Jinnah, became the new nation's first Governor-General, and the Secretary General of the Muslim League, Nawabzada Liaquat Ali Khan became the first Prime Minister. From 1947 to 1956, Pakistan was a dominion in the Commonwealth of Nations under two monarchs. In 1947, King George VI relinquished the title of Emperor of India and became King of Pakistan. He retained that title until his death on 6 February 1952, after which Queen Elizabeth II became Queen of Pakistan.
She retained that title until Pakistan became an Islamic and Parliamentary republic in 1956.
This also means that every Pakistani who has parents or grandparents born before 1956 has the birth right of Britisch citizenship.

Your lack of knowledge once again shows...

I'm not racist, I just think if they want to live here, they should be more like British people, and not wear a full body table cloth, and not take all our council houses, and not stink entire neighbour hoods out of curry, and not stick mosques on every damn corner.

I support it being removed, if us Brits did it, we'd be stopped and questioned by the police for looking suspicious.
Not long ago a Muslim girl sued a school teacher after he told her to remove her 'religious' jewelry, despite the fact the schools rules are that nobody is allowed to wear jewelry, it's pathetic. I also forgot to mention, the government is planning on charging people for any extra rooms they have in their houses, Muslims will be legally allowed to say the spare room is a prayer room, where as us Brits will have to pay the fee, I think this only applies to council houses though, in which case most of them are taken by lazy fucks and immigrants, want to move here? Blend the fuck in.

Regardless of the extremist numbers, they still praise the book which encourages mass gruesome slaughter of billions of people, if these 'peaceful Muslims' do not believe in that part, what makes them think the rest of it is real? What makes them believe in Allah if they do not believe in the mass slaughter and such which is written in his book? How can they not be crazy?

Quit trying to indirectly provoke Welsh people, you've probibly never been to Wales, if you had been you'd know that only a small majority of the Welsh population have a 'Welsh accent' such as in the valleys, where as in Cardiff you won't find any.

I don't give a shit wether people make bad jokes about Welsh people, we could do the same about the English, but I didn't say anything about the English for him to come back and call the Welsh accent gay.. Not that I have a Welsh accent and not that it's 'gay'..

I've been to Wales quite a few times and like going there. Was actually going to defend the Welsh but look how it backfired.

Before us Brits decide on whether to be in/out we need clear information as it's clear from this topic you have either been sucked into the OUT by UKIP or just want things to stay the same. We really haven't heard valid reasons just "I think this so vote for me".

Well UKIP has pretty much explained every reason to leave, where as the other parties haven't explained any reasons to stay.

That's my point. We haven't been given proper information on the IN/OUT debate only just pressure from UKIP saying "we want out" and Conservatives with others saying "we want to stay".

No but UKIP actually gave reasons to leave, and I believe them, the other parties just say 'We should stay, Ill negotiate this and that' - Only because the EU is best for their own personal gain, Nigel Farage said he doesn't care if he ever becomes prime minister, aslong as UKIP influences an EU exit and a stronger UK he said he does not care, where as people like Cameron, have already been pulling strings to be re-elected, it's people like Cameron that are making the UK weaker, along with Labour who destroyed our military and let everyone get stuck into sitting on the British benefits system, intead of actually encouraging people to work for a living, at the end of the day, if UKIP policies stay the same they are the only party I'll ever vote for, the conservatives and lib dems are full of crap, and labour completely wastes money and feeds everyone cash on a spoon just to get re-elected, because it's their only way of doing it.

The UK has got stuck into a trend of voting for the same parties even if they don't like them, and now that UKIP has gotten the first surge of support of a party that isnt in the top 3 since WW2, the others are diving out of their seats and promising things they don't want to give, such as Cameron promising an EU referendum IF they get re-elected, just goes to show that they only care about being in the best seats, and not doing whats best for the UK.

I'm sure he does care about being the PM after all that's the only way that his party would actually be able to get policies through that he wanted. If you don't have majority seats then you haven't got the power to get anything turned into physical policy.

I think the election will be between Labour, Conservatives and UKIP. From that I think people feel completely screwed over by Cameron and the coalition so it's Labour vs UKIP. But then Ed doesn't put up much of a fight and UKIP can be seen as quite extreme to some people. It looks to be one that will be quite hard to call but I suppose we shall have to see nearer the time. To be honest I think Labour picked the wrong brother.

Politics 101: They always care about becoming prime minister or any other higher position, and they'll always deny it exactly like Nigel Farage has done just now.

I'm sure you did, and it'd be really unhealthy if you didn't.

UKIP wont win this time round, but the time next, maybe.
I'm guessing it will be the Conservatives, again. :cry:

Boris the clown. :lol:

UKIP aren't going to win a general election, it just simply isn't going to happen.
The only thing that might happen some years in the future is a coalition with the Conservatives but even that's quite a few years away.
