Well i hope not... Basically im 100% anti EU. I believe that all countries of the Eu should be self governing, open trade but no interference with regards to a countries social, moral or legal standpoints. Every country should have the right to govern themselves short of Genocide. Well the latest piece of wisdom from the EU is to divide up the EU in self governing regions totally ignoring borders. This means that London and where i am will be effectively part of France. This is part of the EU constitution which was meant to have been defeated in various votes across the EU: It has never died the constitution is still very much alive and is being introduced via the back door seeing the front door got slammed in their faces. Up in the north of England a meeting was held to begin the process, the public got wind of it and there was a huge rally against it and they got sent packing. There is another meeting. Right here in Woking, held at the HG Wells suite on March 7th at 930 am! And we got the word and a little reception is being prepared for them. And i'm going to be there chanting and yelling at them. 'we shall fight them on the beaches, in the fields and on our streets.... WE SHALL NEVER SURRENDER!' Come on down, if you feel like i do come down and we'll have a laugh! ;D

Celary, you're from Morcambe - you're pretty much a southerner (in my eyes) too! Although you have been up in the glorious north east for quite a while now, so I guess we can let you off.

Dunno what everybody is getting in all a flap over. TheEU can't work, it never will. It's powers are not what everybody makes it out to be, and to be frank all it's going to end up being is a summit for the gravy train. Little more than that
the Pound is safe. Fishermen will fish despite the EU and the ecology (then start complaining ther aint no more fish to trawl and blame the governemnt for the fact they didnt listen)> meh, EU Shme-U. Biggest waste of hot air since the Thatcher and regan years

I agree with Ashe. There's nothing sinister going on, since the EU can barely organise a trade quota competently, I'd be surprised if they could efficiently manage a police state.
OR MAYBE THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT US TO THINK. Etc.
And on this matter, Mark Twain, incidently.
And as a Northerner, I also say, "Cut loose the south!"

There are some things I want Britain to do like France:
More art, more decent cafes, more decent record shops, more sociable outdoor drinking of wine instead of boozy lager-louts, more appreciation of the beauty of language and music and more cute people. The people in France just seemed surprisingly cooler.
Though of course H G Wells kicks the crap out of Jules Verne any day. I made a point to tell them that.
As for our currency, we should keep it and we should stay out of the EU. Not due to any feeling of national pride, but because I'm not fully convinced the EU can adapt to handle local produce and small scale business. I feel it fiddles too much and tries to interfere in industry and farming that should be left alone. My Portugese housemate agrees.
That being said I think there's a fair few laws on the continent that make more sense than our own, and we shouldn't dismiss listening to them. I'd say pretty much all of the 'Brussells want us all to import giant Robo-Paedo's from Albania - and it'll be YOU the tax-payer who pays for it!" style headlines from the Daily Express and Daily Mail are if not lies then grotesque distortions of the truth, and there aren't many more people I hate than Richard Littlejohn and Jim Davidson.
In a referendum I'll probably vote against membership, unless there's some good new arguements. But I can no longer love my country, not when the things that genuinely move me about it are being increasingly forgotten - not only by the scallies on the street, but everyday people and television, and when littering and the paving over of countryside remains such a problem.
I'm not joking. I really ("Clucking," - ed.) hate littering. And no where is more beautiful than The Lake District.

They'd take the country over your happy, compliant thanks after a horrifying extended bout in Room 101. And hey, at least in Equiblirium everyone gets to wear cool trenchcoats. What would make you break and declare love for Big Brother, matey? I predict a 24 hour long session with Pendragon's War of the Worlds.
