Perhaps mancityfan you could explain why...............given the above :?:



you only have to look back over the last 30 years to see the LibLabCon and how much they lied about practically everything they promised. UKIP makes no promises about stuff it knows it cannot make promises about. It simply knows that ONE million council homes cannot be plucked out of thin air - as LORD PRESCOTT found out when he promised it, endless welfare cheques for all is unsustainable, unaffordable unwinnable wars cannot be fought without aircraft carriers and a tiny armed forces with 80,000 soldiers that wouldn't even fill the old Wembly stadium. It knows that this small country cannot endlessly be populated by foriegn nationals coming in at unsustainable rates whilst continuing to provide services NHS, schools, infrastructure ect as good as we are used to. UKIP knows that £1.2 trillion national debt will not simply go away and you cannot keep spending more money that you take in - in taxes, and it knows that half of the problem is the EU that costs us £55 million a day yet we only get back around £25 million a day, that is failing to allow us to run the UK properly. And yes I voted Labour all my life and I was in a union, but never again.


Fair enough thats your view and your prepared to express it =D> =D> unlike so many :badgrin: :badgrin: lets hope their unsucessful in their aims and its not you and yours that suffer the consequences of flogging orf the NHS for one .................along with all the other crap they propose............you dont like the EU reform it.......we told yer years ago KEEP OUT...............but it was dont listen to the Tony Benn and those LEFTIES #-o .................now you pay the price :badgrin: :badgrin: too late to get out .............it would be like jumping off a cliff :D

Lots of people make protest votes by voting for parties they don't necessarily favour just to get their point across to the party they would have preferred to have voted for
And voting for UKIP will at least scare the c*** out of the other parties, assuming the majority of people in this country have the sense to jump on board, because if the pressure is strong enough (around 22% at the last count) then something will be done about EU membership
As far as I'm concerned if anybody wants something done about this then your only option is to vote for UKIP
This general election could well be our last opportunity to exit the EU before we become a Federal State. So if that's all UKIP achieve then that's good enough for me because anything else they do doesn't matter
The Conservatives are the only main party showing any signs of giving us a referendum to vote on our sovereignty and a decision as to who should be in charge. The other two don't care so you can write them off for good
As Manuel Barroso has been pointing out though it's a pointless exercise to try and negotiate for a better deal in the EU. You're either in or your not because you can't have special deals for one member as everybody else will then went to negotiate their own deals and it would get too complicated to govern
From my perspective, the Tory agenda is nothing but a vote winning scam to stop people deserting to UKIP because IF they win the general election they can make excuses not to hold this referendum because all they've agreed to is to make this part of their manifesto
And even if they do give us a referendum with the option to exit the EU there's no obligation for them to do that or even say when they'll do it. All their manifesto will be saying we'll get is a public vote on accepting or rejecting something
In contrast UKIP's main policy is for this country to leave the EU. It can't get any simpler than that

That's possibly about right - what I am saying is people believe what they want to believe - they don't want to believe that Nissan and Honda only build cars in this country because they can sell them into Europe without massive import duties - courtesy of our EU membership.

They want to believe that the EU introduce silly laws - when our parliament have introduced far more.

The English are essentially racist - they even try to justify the empire as being good for the world - when all it did was exploit.

100% of the UK’s economy is subject to the burden of EU Regulation. Less than 10% of UK GDP derives from exports to the EU. Indeed up to 95% of UK firms do not sell to the EU at all.
In 2012, China sold €290 billion of goods to the EU. Businesses do not have to be in a Political Union in order to trade.Since 1975, all the UK’s Trade Agreements have been negotiated by the EU Trade Commissioner. He or she has to take into account the interests of 28 Member States, many of whom are protectionist.The EU has agreements that relate to trade with over 100 countries. The countries include Mexico and South Korea. It follows, after exit, a UK-EU Trade Agreement is inevitable.The UK has little “influence” in the EU. Just 8.24% of the votes in the Council of Ministers. Even that influence is declining.
OUT OF THE EU
INTO THE WORLD
THE UK DOES NOT NEED TO BE IN A
POLITICAL UNION IN ORDER TO TRADE

Careful CC. Truth and common sense aren't popular these days. [-X


BTW, the real problem with the EU, as far as the English are concerned, is that they don't get to run the bloody thing. :lol:

Oh dear.

Many dead people did indeed have a referendum back then, but millions of people now alive have never had a vote.

Democracy doesn't mean one vote in the past and that's it.

And the Germans are going to want to get in a trade war with the UK over car?

Methinks not.
