If anyone didn't already know, the first of the EU live debates between UKIP Leader Nigel Farage and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg start tonight on Sky News from 7pm, also at www.lbc.co.uk.

Finally, a full national debate is taking place on why we're giving £55 million a day in membership fees when we're 1.3 trillion in debt and rising. Then there's the green taxes and renewable subsidies which are destroying energy intensive industries and driving them elsewhere and open-door immigration causing wage-compression amongst other things.

The UK is actually banned from making its own trade deals whilst being in the EU, quite incredible. Norway and Switzerland trade with the EU without being members and Mexico and Japan have trade deals with the EU, again, without being members. 75% of UK laws and regulations are now made by people we don't even elect.

The 2nd debate is on BBC2 at 7pm on April 2nd, if of course Nick Clegg hasn't thrown in the towel by then...
 
Lovely typo on the LBC website. Makes me think ol'Nigel is covering Nick with a blanket.

Still, I'm pro-EU. Not overly interested in having a debate on here. Shall be interesting to watch.
 
The thing that gets me (and many other things) is with the Tories (and Ukip i imagine) wanting us out of the human rights act, alot of people read the headlines of this person staying here having rights etc... as an extreme case, but those rights are yours, mine and everybody's.

One good example was that girl who was forced to work in the workfare scheme stacking shelves for training (lol?) when she had graduated university for history or something of the like, she went to court here and lost. She then appealed to the court of human rights (That they don't want) and she won, if we opted out of that your right and everyones right to appeal would be gone. I just cant like nor trust those Tories...
 
I'm pro EU as we kinda need all the revenue that we can get at the moment. What really grinds my gears is people who work at companies who use the UK as their base of operations/manufacturing in europe. These companies said they would have to leave if we left the EU and these guys who voted for us to leave the EU would be out of a job.
 
A bit off topic, but this always made me smile...



But yea, along with other reasons i think they wanted if dropping out/changing it, they the Tories wanted to remove the Data protections act aswell so all of your purchases, everything they could then look upon which is just crazy as that protections act is there to protect us, whether we buy a kettle, a tent, a gpu or all 3! It's just the principle :dude2:
