My point is that place of birth is largely irrelevant.
It's not really about "pure blood" or any of that nonsense, it's about
integration and respecting the culture you want to live amongst.

Would you consider that the offspring of a say, a US couple born here
and then returned to the US would be British or US?

No such animal as pure blood.

And with a place like england, which has been infested with
immigrants for millennia now, no such thing as natives either.
They all migrated from somewhere, from africa ultimately

she knows what would happen with Farage if she was that stupid.

They are in fact true.

Legislation is not just bills that go through parliament. Legislation is
anything that carries the force of law and the EU generates thousands of
regulations that never get debated that pass into law every year.

And the cost of that legislation and complying with it vastly exceeds
the direct cost of money transferred to the EU.

I guess you are a labour voter: That sort of sophistry reached its peak
with tony blair.

Legislation is not just bills that go through parliament. Legislation is

regulations that never get debated that pass into law every year.

As at March 2015, there were 75,820 laws of all kinds on the UK legal
database. Of those, 22,398 (29.5%) originated with the EU, but not all
of those would have any direct effect on the UK, for example those
covering growing tobacco in the Canary islands and whether Danish ships
can catch mackerel. As I said, about two out of every three pieces of
legislation, both primary and secondary (i.e Regulations, whether UK or
EU) are entirely home grown.

Here are few links that you probably won't want to believe either:
