OUT !!

£350.000000 per week paid in by us.  (we could pay off the national debt off or pay for a hospital every week).
Too many foreign people in this country for the wrong reasons (I'm not a racist, both my daughters in law are foreign and I have no problem with professional foreign workers bringing there needed skills into the country).

Being told what to do by Brussels

Maybe so nonbikers can learn from the united bikersworld

And this 350,000,000 monthly paid out thing, does anyone know how much we get back? Surely subsidies and development funds must see a big portion coming back? If not then yes, OUT -  education, NHS and public service need some of that!

Figures taken from the Bbc Then they are talking about spending 150 billion on a nuclear deterrent. Now that is a real waste of money. I have not got the figures but we also get a lot back from Europe excluding all the trade benefits.

to put the National Debt into context (its £1.56 trillion) it would take 85 years to pay it off at £350M a week

To put the payment into context the 350 million is a fairly accurate gross figure, by the time subsidies are paid back ( out of our gross contribution) we pay a nett figure of 8.5 million into the EU coffers.

Currently there are 28 member states and only two member states actually pay a nett contribution and they are Germany and the UK.

Greece, France, Spain, Portugal, Nederlands, Belgium and many others are in Bail out, so effectively contribute nothing. We buy far more from European countries than than we sell to them, currently 40% of our exports go to the EU, 60% worldwide. Would thos European Nations really stop trading with us if we were to leave? I think not. The reasons posted above should be enough to make you vote out, but if you dig deeper it is not hard to find many, many reasons to vote out.

The UK will not disappear if we leave Europe, even the in campaign have said that wages would go up and house prices would come down....I could go on but I think I have said enough

We need to stay in for trade and other reasons. Our economy would worsen if we left. I have said enough too now. Nice day outside shame I'm working.

Good heavens! Factual, concise and subjective, thought of running for PM? You'd get my vote!
Thanks for the update and good put-over, if only were fed this info and style from those who are supposed to know!   
Glad I started this..............certainly providing food for thought and at present, I must admit it's helping my decision!   
Ballot papers arrived today! Give it a tad longer in case further good stuff gets put up on here!

Its a bit disengenuous to look at the Norway option as they only have a populaion of 5 million, smaller than some of our cities.  They are just bit players,  The UK however is a major net contributor and would have a real effect on the EU budget if we leave.

I do believe that IF we vote to leave it would trigger a PROPER renegotiatiom of our membership, not this mealy mouthed abortion that Cameron has achieved

5 million is a rounding error and they're frozen most of the time.
