It is not a democratic organisation...it is corrupt, some member countries choose which regulations they will follow and those which would be detrimental to their own economies they flout, but nothing seems to happen to them.
The EU is a money pit...and if you want your taxes to be poured into it at the detriment of the British people, cart on.
All this 'we won't be able to compete in the big bad world' is scare mongering...that is what they(the politicians) want you to believe - then when their days are done in British politics they can follow the likes of Neil and Glenys Kinnock and jump on the EU gravy train.
GET US OUT OF THE EU NOW!

The problem is mixing up the EU with Europe. No doubt the EU needs reforming. But Britain needs to be in Europe to form strategic economic alliances with Germany and France to compete with the India-China emerging economies and the Americas.
