Car Boot   10 #5309 Posted December 17, 2017 A lot of people seem to be taking the EU is an enemy stance too far. The EU is not a thing by itself - it’s 28 separate countries.  Do the five EU Presidents know that the EU is "not a thing by itself"?  European Commission President: Jean-Claude Juncker.  President of the Euro Summit: Donald Tusk.  President of the Eurogroup: Jeroen Dijsselbloem.  President of the European Central Bank: Mario Draghi.  President of the European Parliament: Martin Schulz.  All of these important men with their important titles believe that the EU is 'an entity that transcends the sum of its parts'. The EU, in other words, is much more important than any member state. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Modernsoulman   10 #5312 Posted December 17, 2017 Do any of you honestly think leaving or remaining will make any difference whatsoever to the average working class Brit? You'll still be working like a dog until you're nearly 70, pay nearly 50% of your hard earned wages to whatever government is in power in tax & vat & then you'll get a meagre pension to just about survive on until you die.

I don't think it will either but if leaving makes things worse whatever Government is in power will blame us & the other party. If things get better naturally they will take all the praise.
