The EU cannot and will not be reformed.
And it will collapse.
Its an unsustainable model, especially because we will see other countries leave in the next 5 years, plus Turkey will soon join.
Countries should not have open borders, thats ****ing ridiculous on its own, and lot of the "Out" votes are gonna be Jeremy Kyle level bigot ******s, I understand this.
Fact of the matter is though, that a European government that can dictate rules to our government is a frightening prospect. We didn't vote these people in, so they should get no say in how our country is governed, its that simple, thats not democracy. As I have said many times, I despise this Tory government to high heaven, but I can accept them because I know that in 4 years we can get them out (If Labour gets its **** together).
The EU and what its trying to do, literally disgusts me to my core, and I will be voting Out, though I believe we will end up staying in.
And ultimately it doesn't matter, because the EU will most likely collapse by 2021 in my opinion anyway.
turkey will never join. thats not ever happening.
the EU is a self interest model
the moment they brought it to 27 countries the focus shifted away form the original 12 and towards the east and thats the main issue. basically there is a flow of money form right across europe into eastern europe but not a good flow. its guys sending money home or greedy speculators but not necessarily the resources to build infrastructure,schools and jobs.
We don't want them to build their own we want them to consume ours is the corporate attitude.
The issue is a complete turd of a system which has at its heart the classic maintain the status quo and paralysis in decision making. It took 7/8 years to start quantitative easing and didn't do it at same time as rest of word so the whole euro zone is depressed as a result.
The point of european rules is 3 fold
1. Free market and trade.
2. human rights. the record here has been largely so much better than what has gone before. We have seen what the tories did to eopel only recently being put right. this is not related but there are far more rights as a result of this body talking and having a voice that there would be via Uk or UN on its own
3. common interest served. global agreements where europe as a big block can get common policy on climate and agriculture etc done wehre a us or china would not care otherwise.
What I'd say bod is you have voted them in.. you have your choice of freaks to send to europe and people have chosen badly.. just like Londoners picking boris freaking johnson as mayor.. twice...
The EU should actually be cameron sitting with Merkel and the french surrender monkey and deciding.
the council of finance ministers are elected by you and all.
the rest is just a bureaucracy.. commissioners are appointed by those you elect.
We need to reshape it back to a common trade agreement and forum to discuss not let our entire market place sink cos we wnat to go sulk.
In many ways the EU is like the eurovision. the 27 states should not have so much say. those little periphery states were all elt in in a socialist esprit de coups but building them up is not the same as frekaing giving them a big voting block to shape agendas where they've no real say.
