Do you remember that it all started off being called The Common Market?
The way things have developed I think it would be very difficult to find a - how to phrase this without being reported to the moderator for being racist? - British born person who was in favour of the EU as it has developed.
We are losing control of our own country. Our taxes are being used to support any foreigner who steps on our shores whilst Pensioners particularly (who receive one of the lowest pensions in the EU) are suffering financially.
Also bear in mind the Human Rights Act - which sounds great. But it has eroded the freedoms of the individual in this country to an extent which we wouldn't have believed 40 years ago. The Law is no longer our ancient system of Common Law but is Law as determined by the bureaucrats in Brussels. We still have the £. But for how long?

Don't get me going Meggie - I truly despair of what the future holds for this great country of ours. Conspiracy theorists would put forward the view that there is an agenda which is not yet visible to the majority of the population. Never fear - it will become so, and then god help us all. Am I going round the bend? I'm not quite hearing voices or seeing 'reds under the bed' yet - I just wish people would awaken to what is going on before our very eyes

Well .. this says a lot really. There has not been one positive response. It would be interesting to see what the original poster's view on this is.
But taking this further, from this very small sample on here there is no-one with a good word to say about the EU. Unless they're keeping very quiet about it. Then I wonder why?
