Not really sure I'm having a pop at them, especially when I voted for them last year.

However I am having a pop at the way we have to beg the EU to lower taxes.

That is unacceptable.


They're running the country.

But they gave us the right to vote in or out of the EU.

No one else has done that for over 40 years.

Aye, with the expectation we'll vote to stay in due to a new generation of Voters who can't recall not being in the EU, had they given us this vote 10 or 20 years ago we'd have been out faster than a cork out a bottle.

You just have to Visit Primary Schools to see all the pro EU propaganda that they now feed our kids, The EU is the saviour of the entire solar system as far as the Education depertment is concerned, they frightened the sh*te out of everyone under the age of 30 into thinking that the EU is their guardian..

I don't think that would have been the case.

20 years ago, how many people were talking about Turkey joining the EU or for that matter any of the ex soviet countries?

It will take me a while to read through it all but I have read and tried to understand the agriculture sections and fisheries sections but find it difficult to ascertain certain details. For instance under these proposals will farmers get the same subsidy that they get now or will it be bigger of smaller? Will our fishing vessels be able to catch the same amount of fish or will it be more or will it be less?

One thing's for sure we'll start growing more and catching more so we can sell for more, your not insinuating countries like Spain, Italy, France etc will turn their noses up to our sought after fish, the eu regulations concerning eu countries fishing our waters has destroyed our fishing industry, then there's scotch beef (Aberdeen Angus) rated as one the best on the market, time to take back control of everything grandad.

That makes no sense. If there is a bigger supply the price falls. Do you think that the day after a leave vote fishing quotas will increase?

No eu fishing boats in our water's, fishing quota's under our own control, more fish caught by British boats may mean less fish caught overall, meaning the re-birth of an industry and fish stocks, also less jobless in fishing communities, less junkies in fishing communities, less of a burden to the taxpayer, more tax raised through jobs, local fishing economies booming, here what I'm saying grandad, the value of our fish to the eu is enormous, that's why they're fishing in our waters and to the detriment of the British fishing industry.
