So we get out more than we put in, have a word with yourself. We are a net contributor, that is indisputable. We put in substantially more than we take out. 

We aren't talking about internal politics now, the money we need to repatriate can be argued about when we get it back, for gods sake, have you no common sense at all?

 

There is no getting it back, there is no money tree, what about all the trade we lose? all the businesses leaving? all the GDP the government AND OUR ECONOMY will lose?

 

what if the economy gets smaller, jobs dry up, people cant afford houses, rent, food? what if people are thrown on the streets?

 

dont YOU have any common sense?

How do you work that out? you do realise there is more to it than that yeah? Being an EU member isn't just about paying X in and getting Z out. The other benefits are staggering, yet another leave voter who doesn't understand how the EU works, what a surprise.

Yes I do and what dues and demands are on on about, oh, the one about propping up nigh on third world countries whilst we have our own poverty to contend with?

Still not answered the questions.

Hahahahaha, they've convinced you obviously, fact of the matter is this, the EU exports more to us than we do to them, we are the 5th biggest economy in the world and we are still growing now more than the other EU countries, the one thing holding us back is people who don't know what they're talking about.

Like what? What are the other benefits, you haven't a clue have you? Because there isn't any.

"The UK is the 5th largest economy in the world at present, with a GDP of $2.18 trillion, according to the IMF."

Just google it mate, do a bit of research, it really isn't difficult, it's a generally accepted fact as is the fact that when we leave the EU it will be like the 19 smaller economies leaving, that is how much power we have and we are being sold short by fools.

It's demonstrably true.

And as a result, make savings from efficiencies of scale and shared recources that cost far more to do in isolation.

 

Hence Brexit is already costing double our current EU contribution, and is set to rise further if we ever leave

 

The irony, given your "problems at home" spiel (besides the reality that they're entirely a result of UK government policy and nothing whatsoever to do with the EU) is that leaving will exacerbate them!

 

If only they'd put that on the side of a bus eh

I know exactly what the benefits of being an EU member are, do you know what the benefits of not being a member are? and you still haven't answered my two questions so I will remind you.

 

Will the homeless be better off or worse off? and is it a good idea not to pay our dues and demands?

 

Answer my questions and I will answer yours.

 

I haven't  got a clue so you should nail it, knock yourself out.

The EU is not fit for purpose, just loo at the streets of europe and look at the streets around your home when on your way to collect your unemployment benefit or go to work as the case may be. Shared facilities/efficiences, they take and we give,wakey wakey.

Only 8% goods exported from the EU come to the UK.

 

UK-EU exports are a bigger part of the UK’s economy than the EU’s

 

Convinced you say?
