        Although with the economic decline UK will suffer they might be afraid they might have to rescue it...

            Either,
            (a) UK new membership fee will be so large (no rebate) that they will give exemption in return for big fee
            (b) EU is best thing in the world and can do no wrong, all hail the Euro !

            UK Win either way :-)

                As a remainer I can say the EU is not the best thing in the world but it the best the UK can get. The EU has many flaws but the other member countries get around them without a fuss. If only 1% of the effort and money put into Brexit was spent on reforming the EU, I think most people would be happy.

                My gripe with the EU is that since 1980, the trend for support has moved from small business towards large corporates. Many Brits were very much against the CAP that favoured small farms that are found mainly in France and some other EU countries. I thought the CAP subsidies were a good thing as it guaranteed work for the rural communities, it meant that we had quality food and a reliable supply of food be it slightly more expensive. Supporting large conglomerates results in less tax revenue, fewer jobs, poor quality service, poor quality food and poor health.

                The fact that DB can buy a rail franchise in the UK and use the profits to subsidise German railways (DB) is not the fault of the Germans but the fault of the gross incompetence of the UK government.

                Let's stay in the EU and work with like-minded people in other EU countries.

                  Flipping 'eck. A thoughtful post on Cuk. Who'd a thunk it?
