Seven risks of voting to remain

[OwlHoot]

Excellent article, which I would urge timid and/or undecided possible remainers to read.

2016-04-18 7 risks in voting Remain ..

1. Deeper integration

In June, the EU published its response to the euro crisis, a document known as the Five Presidents’ Report. It set out plans for ‘fiscal and political union’, ‘further pooling of decision-making on national budgets’, and harmonisation of ‘insolvency law’, ‘company law’, ‘property rights’ and ‘social security systems.’ It made clear that these things were to be pursued as ‘single market measures’, applying to all 28 states not just those in the euro. This isn’t some think-tank paper, or some manifesto by crackpot MEPs. It represents official Brussels policy. We can’t say we haven’t been warned ...

One point that can't be emphasised enough is that staying in doesn't mean nothing changes, quite the opposite.

We'll find ourselves on a conveyor belt of forced further integration and harmonisation, which the UK will be powerless to resist, whatever pathetic impotent UK politicians like Cameron claim.

It really is quite simple.

We either vote to leave and go our own way or we remain and ultimately get swallowed up in a federal Superstate.

That is the plan and that has been the plan all along.

Of course, they will carry on lying because they know the public will never buy this & the lies alone are enough to make me vote leave without even considering the economic implications.

There really is that much at stake!

In the UK, whichever parties are voted in, it seems only the interests of big business are served. And where central plans are forced upon everyone - look at the recent pavement car parking incident.

Whether the UK is ruled from a few toffs in London or some Lederhosen clad Berliner seems almost irrelevant.

Either way big business leaders are going to call the shots. And they will probably be based abroad anyway.

The idea that the UK is going to get swallowed up and become part of a European superstate is laughable at best...

Voting to leave one of the largest free trade areas in the world is economical suicide....

Can you imagine voting to go with the collective wisdom of Gove, IDS, Farage and Johnson. g Sounds like a really good idea

If the vote is to remain, and I strongly expect that to be the case, even if the result is 51% Remain, 49% Leave, that will be taken as the UK approving of the EU project. It'll be full steam ahead towards further integration without any hint of reform.

We'll be thrown under the wheels as punishment, pour encourager les autres.

Mervyn King, and another 300+ economists, said the same about Geoffrey Howe reforms.

Many said the same about joining the Euro - we had to join. In fact, it is largely the same lot who said we have to join the Euro who are now saying we have to stay in.

It seems to be a religious belief. The in crowd open the bible and read the book of Merkel where it says "the UK shall stay in the Eurozone or a plague of locusts shall be sent to smite you".

We would rather go with their collective wisdom than that of the council of ministers for the EU - at least we have the power to get rid of Gove, Johnson, farage and IDS and bring in your mate Corbyn to run things if we want
