If it is all socialist propaganda, you shouldn't have any problem providing a link to something that lays out the benefits of leaving the EU in the same detail as the report in my first link, rather than the vague and generalised promises that UKIP usually comes up with. Hah. Name a socialist economy that's thriving! Norway, Sweden, Germany etc etc etc. And don't say Sweden. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy...ivatisati ons Thats not what socialism means. And Norway has done nothing like that. |

You are back to only being able to defend your position by putting forward a conspiracy theory. That's what he chose to do, not necessarily the only thing he can do. How about an equally well researched and detailed report on the benefits of leaving the EU, Dont need one on the basic stuff like being able to determine the laws entirely for yourself, and decide who and how many are allowed to work in the country. or examples of major business leaders clamouring for us to leave? They are irrelevant to what the country chooses to do. The sun doesnt actually shine out of their arses and they have a vested interest anyway. |

UKIPs important policy is Brexit. Everything else will follow on. That is what worries me. The National Institute of Economic and Social Research has an excellent track record of economic predictions and they foresee that leaving the EU will permanently reduce the UK economy by 2.25%. Did they foresee the financial crash ?... They produced a model based upon banking during the period 1980-2003 that predicted the possibility of the sub-prime crisis, But never said it was going to happen. but nobody took any notice of it until after the crash. Because it never said that that was going to happen. |
