David,
I started a thread on here ages ago asking if anyone could tell me what the benefits are to being a member of the EC. there were few replies (which I understand, as there are a lot more guys from the US on here than us Europeans).
I'd like to reiterate the question:-
Can anyone give me a knowledgeable and cohesive answer as to why we are in the EC, and what benefit it can possibly bring us compared to the savings we would make by extricating ourselves from the behemoth that it has become?
