I guess they reckon if they stay in the EU it will mean a lot less work for them(getting out will be harder than trying to get toothpaste back into the tube)....and if Brussels makes the rules........do we really need any MP's.

According to a newspaper this morning, Mp's are going to vote on whether to let the public have a referendum on our continuing membership of the EU.......but, and it is a big but, the results will not be legally binding on the government. So I feel that it is just a ploy to placate those of us who feel that the EU is a Frankenstein monster that will eventually do what two world wars could not.
