WHY, oh why do we need to join Europe?
We have an abundance of talent and our goods are noted for their quality the world over, and what about the Commonwealth?
They faithfully stood by us during the dark years of two wars to free Europe from German control.
Now what do we get? Spain which was pro-German during the war has the audacity to want to share "The Rock". We did not fight for our freedom to hand it over to the very people who tried to destroy us.
Europe will bleed us of jobs - already a number of companies have moved the manufacture of goods to Eastern Europe, because of cheap labour. This will grow and we will find ourselves in recession.
