I need your opinions (and facts where possible).
In my heart of hearts for some years now, I have largely despised the EU, and most of what it stands for, but I fear I may be short on facts.
I know that it costs us a headline figure of around £44 million per day run, and that they will happily vote themselves free hookers if they had a whim to. What I can't see is the counter argument...
What does the EU bring to us, other than open borders?
Back in the day, it was a TRADING body created to make European trade easier, and give everybody a level playing field (unless you're a french farmer :veryangry: )...
But now all it does is create mounds of legislation. If I am a local council, and I want to tender certain jobs out to the private sector, I have to publish the tender in the Hague (or wherever they are sitting, depending on which day of the week it is) before I can offer it to a local company...
So, I'm interested in your opinions and facts regarding this giant Gravy Train.
Let the games begin :laugh:
