Majority of British public wants to leave EU(Poll suggests)

[Oliver]

The EU is NOTHING like the USSR..

Same shit, different smell.

[Batta]

Same shit, different smell.

Haha, how so?

Makes no sense.. Just shows how much you know about the EU.

Haha, how so?

Yes, explain.. :poke:

Brussels SAYS that they support countries taking their own course if the people want it, but in reality it's very interested in keeping all of the countries in the EU on a leash in order to form an European superstate, like the USSR used to be - a collection of many countries in an union, with "freedom" granted to them on paper.

The EU council is also propagating immigration pretty heavily - with uneducated masses ("oppressed people") imported to successful countries like Germany and Sweden, who proceed to cause nothing but trouble, and if someone tries to put an end to it they assassinate you, like with happened with Jörg Haider, a politician in Austria.(http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27127940/ns/world_news-europe/t/austrian-politician-haider-dies-car-crash/).
He promised the Austrian people that if he was elected, he would put an end to immigration. Surprise-surprise, the people actually did elect him and when he tried to carry out his promise, the EU council tried to put an end to it immediately, basically going as far as to call him second Hitler. The people weren't happy about him not being able to carry out his promise, and just before he got to instate stricter immigration measures, he died mysteriously in a car crash. As we all know, high-profile politicians simply love to drive around alone from time to time with no security whatsoever, despite usually having a convoy of security cars following them.

That's just one example of how Brussels is acting like a second Moscow, actually influencing the politics in the "free" countries of Europe. Anyone pro-EU is anti-independence.
At least we have a higher standard of living in the EU than we had in the USSR.

Leaving the EU isnt what we need to do, it does lots of good for us with things like trade links etc however lots of people want britain to stand up for ourselves a little more within the EU. The british public are fed up with being told what to do by a european judge when it comes to things like deporting a Known terrorist to stand trial, something that was cleared by a british judge and then blocked by a European one. We are also being told we must continue to pay massive sums of money to keep other countries afloat when we have our own issues.

leaving isnt the way forward, we just need to stand up a little more and stop being pushed around by the EU

If thats the case the EU can get lost, a union within a union never works anyway..
Pathetic that a European just can dictate what happens in the UK, I now support the UK leaving the EU.

The UK probably relies a lot in Europe to trade with so they need the Union.

The UK could still trade with Europe without being in the EU, just my guess is there'd be higher tax prices..

[Reece]

I can certainly say I will be voting for UKIP in 2015.

And that's a problem.

As Gandalf already stated, losing the EU will lose some benefits for the UK. Though, the UK still has their own currency, so it would be easier to leave the EU than for a country, for instance, The Netherlands.
I think every country has a politic party in it, mostly the opposition party, which wants to leave the EU.
If you leave the EU now, don't expect them to let you in when they got all their things sorted. At the moment, some Southern countries face the economic crisis very badly. Therefore, we have to help them out, otherwise our economy will get hit harder.

TL;DR: It's easier for the UK to leave the EU than for countries who have the €. On the contrary, when the economics perk up, they won't be let in as easy as they leave now.

We along with Germany, France, Italy and Spain have contributed half of the budget. After Germany we are the second country on net contribution.

Reason why France took a step back.

If we don't leave the EU, we at least need to lower our financial contributions to it.

[Mikal]

Even though I don't think UKIP would ever get in power, I do think that they'd do alot better than labor or these freaking liberals, labor screwed the UK over and ruined it's military and the liberals are just there for the rich, UKIP would bring the UK back out of shit and make it the nation it used to be in the early 20th century.

[TiMoN]

I would love to go there :3, I am sick of the weather in my country, 24/7 sun, sun sun, no clouds in 85% of the year, 1% chance of rain, Winter is hotter than the Summer itself, WTF.
