TO GO or to stay within the EU may be the question on your mind, it is certainly the guaranteed subject on each news broadcast and headlines in the papers.

The question is what and who to believe as each person giving an opinion has a vested interest, plus opinions on both sides are mainly based on probability, but we do know that we pay into the EU x numbers of euros each year and unlike most countries, get less out. We are partially governed by EU laws some of which are good others restrict the country that we are. If you were a betting person you would put your money on Greece defaulting on payment of their loan yet again, also there are other countries who have a money deficit that are likely to ask for a bail out.

We are supposed to share information with our partners especially over terrorist threat, this did not happen with the Brussels bombers and I wonder what other information hasn’t been shared which could save lives Our borders are open to any threat, just look at how France copes with its immigrant migrant camps, and we are in the EU working supposedly together, our police are helping on the French side with border control as the French Police cannot cope.

Because of the policies of the EU we now have infra structures that cannot cope, schools with huge migrant/immigrant populations who do not speak English which effects our children’s education and future prospects.

We are building more houses to house whom?

We probably know what the EU does law wise, trade etc we do not know how we will cope out of the EU but do you really think the markets for our goods will dry up?

I for one would rather take my chance and opt out as I feel that staying in will restrict my life even more, also I feel we are paying for other countries bad housekeeping, we have had to suffer from the financial problems with austerity measures so why not Greece etc I feel that each person spouting as to leave or stay in the EU has some form of hidden agenda and that’s the cynic in me!
