Oh boy. It means we can vote political parties out of office if we don't
like what they do. It means we have some control over our lives.


You don't vote for a political party in the UK. All you can do is vote for
the MP of your choice. A very different matter. It's not uncommon to have
an excellent MP who gets voted in again against the national trend.

Compare this with the typical European country model where no-one even
takes laws seriously. For a long list of reasons. And that's their own
country's laws.


Ever been to Germany? That is the largest EU country. Where they are far
more law abiding in general than the UK.

When people outside of UK rule what happens here, generally they have
little care or concern what the results are, or what we think of it. AND
we will be wholly unable to remove them from office or repeal the laws.
Only someone that doesn't understand the fundamentals of basic liberties
would vote for such a stupid loss of freedoms.


The typical EU against poor little England response. Despite UK MEPs
voting in favour of about 80% of EU stuff. And the even weirder notion
that each and every EU country has more in common with the others than the
UK. Which you'd know is total ******** if you'd ever set foot outside the
Daily Telegraph.

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little
temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." Benjamin Franklin.


That well known Englishman. Who presumably believed in the rights of all
to carry assault rifles into gay clubs.
