Its also the best chance of sorting other issues such as fishing. There is a real issue waste and bureaucracy and Britains bloated confribution. Issue of EU laws is swings and roundabouts.
I have always previously been anti-European but the world is getting bigger than the UK.

WE(well, Ted Heath actually) gave away the fishing rights in order to get into the EEC.......so are you saying that after all these years, Britain is going to demand their ball back, and the EU are going to hand it over?
