Pro or Anti European Union?

[PurpleTrance]

Are you pro eu or anti eu?

I'm gonna start off by saying i'm anti eu. Heres why.

Secret closed ballots to elect commissioners.

Corporate lobbyists as powerbrokers.

Loss of national sovreignty.

Imposed european nationalism and identity.

Imposition of foreign legal systems.

Aristocratic mentality of 'elected' officials.

Filtering of money towards shareholders by politicians - the rich get richer, the poor get poorer.

Corperate personhood.

Redistribution of national finance and resources decided behind closed doors.

Fisheries policy - left our waters dead.

Agricultural policy - independant farmers can't compete with companys.

Crooks and fraudsters given democratic credentials.

Upperclass/wealthy electorate (the poor don't vote).

No referendums or social consent - or simply ignoring any 'no' votes.

Media's job to SELL the consept of integration and demonize any opposition.

Funding banks with taxpayers money while people lose jobs.

I could go on....

So are you anti eu or pro eu. And why.

Meh. Has its pros and cons.

The government needs to concentrate on fixing this country rather than looking to unite with others.

This country is in a state financially, the economy is almost non existent, unemployment is up and the cost of living continues to rise (including my god damn electric bill

.)

The EU should be last on the list of priorities, first thing the government needs to do is start making the banks pay for the S*** they have caused and make them hand over their bonuses and use that to get things back to normal instead of raising VAT and the cost of living so that we are the ones paying. I raged efing hard when I heard the news this week about the banks moaning about them having to pay higher taxes, who the F do they think they are? if it wasn't for them we would not be in this situation in the first place and they only have their selfs to blame.

And breath....... lol.
