The EU deal

Yid4life · June 5, 2016

Nice to see the EU fined the UK £642mn as DEFRA allegedly failed to keep proper track of farm subsidies. This after the European Court of Auditors has failed to give the EU a clean bill of health for 19 straight years.

Hypocrisy anyone?

It may be decades from now. There's no guarantees though. Will take all members to approve. Theres no desire from France right now and whilst I'm not totally au fait with the positions of Cyprus or Greece, my guess would be there isn't there either.

So basically what you are saying is let our kids or grandkids deal with it? Of course if we vote out they won't have to.

Just a thought.

Sounds like Camerron, not good enough unless we get cast iron guarantees.

Deal with what exactly?

It's almost like the previous generations making decisions that benefitted them, eh?

The question at hand. Keep up.

That's a bit rich coming from a Leaver. If only the out campaign could give some guarantees on the economy, trade, and immigration before the vote.

The question at hand is being dealt with now, at hand. What are our kids and grandkids going to have to deal with? Come on, let's see inside your crystal ball.

The guarantees from the Remain camp would have been interesting in 2007.

There are no guarantees. Funny how the big US investment houses that nearly brought down the EU are now the ones funding the Remain campaign. Short memories.

You know all the answers mate. Why are you asking me? Rhetorical questions? Or are you insinuating something?

There are no guarantees either way. The EU is not static. It is an ever evolving entity. We joined a market and now look at it.

True, there's no guarantees from either camp, but if you think the future is bleak being out, then I'd argue the future looks worse staying in.
I'd prefer to run ourselves rather than be run from the EU. At least this way we have our own interest's at heart rather than wondering if the EU mean well, which I don't believe they do.
