How will you vote in the EU referendum?

Obieone, it depends on how rich a citizen you are as to whether Cameron is putting you first.

Perhaps best

Ermm...sorry, Jalima...

x posts, Jamila!

Actually it was obieone who asked for the link, I thought of asking but I didn't
Completely losing track now, am I fit to vote?

It was me asked for the link petra
I can have a look on-line (probably tomorrow now)

Got that wrong there. I meant that plenty of ordinary working-class folk intend to vote to stay IN - possibly because they don't like change but certainly not because they're rich!

obieone. Re linking. Having probs with that. Apple are sorting it.
It was in the DM today.
I notice Ms Merkel is very quiet lately. Maybe she thought it best to keep quiet with all the protests going on in her country. Or are all those 1,000s of people wrong.

I doubt it. Plenty of ordinary working-class people intend to vote OUT.

Are in or out divided along wealth lines do you think? I hadnt thought about it in those terms.

It depends how rich a citizen you are, obieone.

If the citizens of a particular country are not prepared to put their own country first, then who will?
Is even David Cameron putting us first?

Do you have a link for the article please petra?

I think that the big plan needs looking at very carefully too petra

I read an article today that stated that the EU will fail because the 'ruling elite' don't understand patriotism. It went onto talk about the Eastern block countries and their view that the EU is akin to their past soviet masters.
I can well understand this point of view.
That article took me to some very scary views on what is the big plan for Europe.

it is always Britain, Britain Britain and what they want out of it.
A lot of us remember that it was set up for the benefit of France and Germany and some people do still think that Germany tries to call all the shots.

I am not saying I do, but I have heard other people state this in discussions.

Re Poland, I thought that their economy was doing a lot better and that a lot of Poles had moved back and that in fact many British people had moved there to work.

It seems nothing is fixed yet and won't be fixed in time for a referendum
MargaretX I thought the timing must be wrong, because it seems too short a time between getting any changes agreed and the referendum.

So in fact, if we are undecided and the proposed changes are what will sway our vote one way or another, we will be voting on something quite nebulous and unratified.

I am in complete agreement with Badenkate and Lavande. It would be a huge mistake for the UK to exit the EU. I will without doubt be voting to remain in. Sure, the EU has a number of failings as far as some Brits are concerned but the wider implications of a Brexit could be disastrous, i.e. higher prices on certain goods and services, lack of subsidies, and fewer customers for our exports. We have been in the EU many years now so we have become accustomed to buying a range of produce in our supermarkets that we have all come to love and these are likely to cost or disappear altogether. Little England? Not for me!

I agree. I also think that Cameron is going to have to let his front bench off the leash before whatever it is has been agreed.

I still don't think the draft agreement will be agreed in its current form.

I wasn't talking about the EU parliament. I was talking about politicians in EU countries compared to our parliament. I do not pretend to understand their languages, but their MPs on television seem to come across as more polite than our MPs.

I haven't seen any other parliament braying like the Tories do in PMQs.

It makes ours look like a vicars tea party ( minus the cucumber sandwiches.)

More polite!

Have you ever watched debates from the EU Parliament.?
