The Daily Mail obviously angles it's stories towards it's readership.Originally Posted by Jamesey
Why is it that these stories always seem to come from the Daily Mail?
I think that our membership of the EU is a good thing. If we left, it would be a disaster for the UK economy. The sensible politicians and economists know this.
If we were to have a referendum, the Daily Mail would run every scare-mongering semi-story possible, which enough of the electorate might believe to make a difference!
If the general population felt that strongly about leaving the EU, UKIP would be much more than a minority party.
I'm sure the majority of us are perfectly capable of forming our own opinions though.
For as long as I can remember I have been told that leaving the EU would be a disaster for our Economy but nobody really can explain why.
Most people who subscribe to your point of view are the same people although they'll never admit it who would have had us joining the Euro several years ago. Thank God some sensible Politicians decided against it.
In my view GB gets no tangible benefit from being a member, on the contrary the rest of Europe seems to reap the BENEFITS of our membership.
We have ploughed Billions of our pounds to keep the likes of Spain Ireland Portugal and Greece afloat with little or no prospect of ever getting it back. We have 10's of thousands of EU citizens arriving here yearly who bring nothing with them apart from cheap labour and an ever increasing burden to our benefits system and NHS. Finally we have the ECHR which allows known terrorists to hide behind it and avoid extradition.
Yes UKIP is a minority party at the moment but the main political parties ignore the findings of this opinion poll and many others at their peril. UKIPs vote is on the rise clear 3rd in the By election last week.
