Dave reckons if we weren't already a member of the EU, we'd vote to join? 'Hell yes'

Makes you wonder really doesn't it? Why Dave thinks that if we weren't already a member, we'd want to join the EU?

Why would we want to join a club when we are trying to secure a legally binding opt-out from its core principle of 'ever closer union'?

Why would we want to join a club when we don't agree with its publicly stated direction of having a single, EU imposed currency, flag, anthem, army, tax regime, employment and pension system?

What exactly would we be trying to sign up to then? An inability to strike our own trade deals with the rest of the world - when the EU has proven to be woefully inept at doing so?

An inability to control our own borders or decide on our own levels of welfare which are paid for by UK taxpayers?

An inability to invest in the levels of public services needed to meet the needs of our population - healthcare, housing, schools, energy and waste provision, transport infrastructure - because we have no idea what that population will be and absolutely no control over the numbers?

An inability to have our own laws made by people for whom we vote (and can kick out if they fail); lawmakers who live here, understand our concerns and values, have actually heard of the city, town or village where we live?

And all this wonderful stuff to be secured at the price of just £28million (net) a day - to help pay for our biggest economic competitor Germany's take-over of Europe and its destruction of the economies of southern Europe with the consequent disaster being visited on employment rates, particularly for young people. We could build a new, fully-equipped NHS hospital every two weeks for that kind of money.

Membership of this club must come with some massive personal benefits for Dave and his cronies in 'the Establishment' for him to be in favour of joining - it seems to have very few, if any, benefits for the people of this country.  

And you are supposed to be working and negotiating in our interests Dave, not your own.

Would we really want to join this club if we were not already a member? Only if we had a genuine desire to diminish and destroy the standing of this once proud nation. To turn the fifth biggest economy on earth into an 8% shareholder (and shrinking), influence-free, part of the world's only shrinking trade bloc:- An organisation whose actions are creating chaos throughout Europe and once again giving rise to serious conflict between, and extremism within, its increasingly disparate and desperate member states.

Hell no Dave. This will be your downfall - and you will get everything you deserve.

'I rule nothing out'? Except doing what is the right thing for this nation and its people.

Not only would we never join this shambles of a club if we were not already a member, we should - and I hope will - do everything we can to get out of it now that we have the chance. It may well be a once in a lifetime chance - quite probably the last chance we will get - given the massive goal-post-moving changes that have been imposed upon us since the last time we got any kind of say in the matter forty years ago.

Don't waste this opportunity. Vote to get out. To take back our sovereignty, control of our borders and our future destiny. Do we really want our future to be decided by unelected muppets in Brussels who rarely if ever take account of the views of the British people in their decision-making? #brexit
