Not seen such Bravery!
As far IN as possible.
Can we agree to keep it civil as well as simple - i.e. no party bashing ? I only ask as otherwise it will turn out like all the other EU threads.
PS - I'm that single "OUT" at the moment.

No, silly me, we can't keep it civil and simple. It only took to post 6 !
OK - keeping it civil - your genuine, sincere reasons for wanting us out of the EU?
The reasons for IN are economic
The reasons for OUT are sovereign

The BEST thing will be if the JOCKS vote out and then WE can KICK all their players and MANAGERS out too
That would be BEST for the BEAUTIFUL game

Abstention! : I can see merits for both positions
- Thread starter

Well obviously there are some merits for both options, but would you not vote if there was a referendum?
High level - we joined a common market and the electorate has never been given a say over the creeping power grab of the EU. We'll have to agree to disagree as to whether centralisation of those powers is good or bad.
Ted Heath admitted in a number of interviews that the plan always was a new super state. The Eurozone was then last big step towards that.
I don't want to belong to such a super state - I'd rather have the interesting differences each of the current members have / had. Some of that is down to silly little things like different currencies and passports and others much more important like control over our own interest rates, control of our own armed forces and control over our own boarders.
The EU is a highly expensive and corrupt organisation that needs serious reform - IMO the EU is neither capable this nor wants to reform.
If the EU had just stayed as a free trade bloc then fine. There was never any need for the steps that have been taken to standardise everything from number plates to currency.

Yes, I would vote in a referendum but would rather read up/listen more intently to both sides arguments before coming to a considered decision. As there won't be a referendum until 2017 (possibly not even then!) I'm not ready to cast my vote.

Totally agree , when we joined the EU I was all for it because I thought it would lesser our relationship with the US , unfortunately this has never happened , as the saying goes we 'lick ass' .
