European poll.
 

Following on from another thread, which is discussing Britain's relationship to the European Union, I thought if we could have a referendum, as we were promised, how would you vote?

Re: European poll.
 

To leave!

Re: European poll.
 

Vote for... what?

Re: European poll.
 

I would attend the polling station on my flying pig and vote to leave the EU.

Re: European poll.
 

Did you mean to attach a poll gary?

edit: nm its there now!

Re: European poll.
 

To stay in Europe.

Re: European poll.
 

If you are saying a vote on wether to leave then I would say it would be like leaving a card game because you don't like the rules...then joining another card game only to find out you don't like the rules..and end up playing on yer own.

What does the third option mean? Surely, you can only be in (as per the present 27 countries) or out (as per Norway and Switzerland)? There is no third option in the EU!

Re: European poll.
 

There is one.

I've voted in it..;)

Re: European poll.
 

I hope you are happy with the wording.

I tried my best to be fair, and give all the possible (simple) options I could think of.

Leave, carry on as it is, or try and extradite ourselves from the political union and still have some economic alliance.

Re: European poll.
 

If we left the EU we'd still have economic ties and could still form free trade agreements just like many other countries not in the EU do. Does answer 1 suggest no economic ties/trade, or are 1 and 3 the same?

Re: European poll.
 

It's a simple poll on here.. but most people would have their sensible heads on if it did come to a national referendom on leaving the EU..I for one did not like the idea in the first place but to leave would be lurching towards a very aggressive national attitude..I don't like the looks of it.

Re: European poll.
 

By the way, it isn't a secret ballot.

Bernard, you've voted to keep the status quo as it is. Are you happy with a system that allows a Romanion to enter Britain and claim social benefits here, and also to claim benefits for children still back in Romania, all quite legally?

Personally I think that stinks, and proves we are seen as the soft touch of this political/economic/whatever union.

Re: European poll.
 

So being "sensible" means agreeing with you, does it? And as for leaving giving us an "aggressive national attitude", do you mean like those snarling nationalists, the Norwegians and the Swiss? :rolleyes:

Re: European poll.
 

I am undecided whether or not to register for a vote this time.
The form has arrived and I can't even bring myself to open the envelope.
Democracy is dead. Whoever gets in works for their own interests and for a common purpose, which is not for the good of the population.
