The problem in your statement is the word "we"... If we remain then we have no say in what happens to us.... what the EU wants the EU gets.. look at its history.. born as the EEC for economic reasons.. but we got flags, governments and unelected presidents... imagine what you'll have 20 years from now! | |||

A veto is only any use if the government use it....if they don't we are stuck with it....can't vote in a different government in five years who can change it....same with the Turkey issue! | |||

"If we remain in the EU, will we be punished for daring to have the audacity to question the EU? Could be the start of a slippery slope..." ................Agreed.....if the EU want it..the EU will get it and we will have no say in it what so ever...it's a dictatorship. | |||

"Michael heseltine just admitted that if we remain in the EU that the time will come where we will have to dump the pound and join the euro. I'm pretty sure David Cameron said this will never happen...." It wouldn't surprise me if it turns out to be true. Ted Heath took Britain into what is now called the EU back in the 1970's based on a pack of lies. He claimed back then it was a simple trade deal, (the common market) and nothing more, but after he retired he admitted in interviews he knew all along the future plans for the EU with ever closer political union and one € European currency, etc. He didn't tell the public back in the 70's because he knew it would have been rejected and Britain would have voted to Leave in 1975. Basically all the British public were conned back then and they are being conned now. The EU five presidents report clearly states that it wants ever closer political union (effectively a united states of Europe) and ever closer monetary union (which means all members must eventually accept the € single currency). | |||

Since joining the EU, we've been stripped of 70 powers of veto. The stated endgame of the EU is a federal republic, with all that implies - single currency, legislature, legal system, army, police force etc, etc. (all run by an unelected elite) If we vote to stay, this is the path we commit ourselves to. Oh we'll huff and puff and delay as long as we can, but unless the EU collapses first, we will be absorbed into the EUSR, being just another province. | |||

"Bollocks are we. There is no mechanism to force it. He's deluded or has an ulterior motive. More ukxit fear tactics. Michael Heseltine is a Remain campaigner.

"The proof is in the pudding. We joined the EEC for economic and trading reasons.. We got flags, governments and presidents. Imagine what we will have 20 years from now.... everyone wave hello to the country called Europe. What would be wrong with a country called europe? It has kept the peace for soo long. The more nationalism comes back! The more chance for war. We in the west share the same basic values, what is wrong with intergration? and joining togeather to promote and protect those values? Because we are our own country" One planet, one race human...the more we keep devideing ourselfs and puting barriers up the more intolerent we become, and the more problems start. | |||

"Michael heseltine just admitted that if we remain in the EU that the time will come where we will have to dump the pound and join the euro. I'm pretty sure David Cameron said this will never happen.... It won't happen, we have a veto which stops this from being imposed on us. The only way we will adopt the euro is if WE choose to." This exactly. The British public might have a different view of it in 20 or 30 years time. But if Thursdays referendum was join the euro or not, I know which way I would bet. We have a veto on joining the Euro. We have a veto on any new member states joining, we have a veto on a European army. Any big decisions that fundamentally change the EU have to be agreed by treaty change. For this to happen it has to be unanimously agreed by the heads of government of every member state. So as a country we just have to tell the Prime Minister we don't want that and he/she wont sign it. | |||

"I don't see how you can compare the UK with what will be a united states of Europe in the not to distant future. And as for the power of veto, having it is not the same as using it. Today's EU is yesterday's EEC. Ask yourself the question, what does tomorrow bring?" Have you ever seen pictures of Afghanistan 100 years ago? It was a (relatively) nicely place!!

But isn't one of the central arguments of the Leave campaign about transferring power from Brussels to Westminster? If you don't trust the government with the power they have now, whu would you want them to have more? | |||

Ok, well we have our own elected government right now, and we are also a member of the EU, so the two aren't mutally exclusive. And on Friday we will know the direction we will follow. I for one will accept the voice of the people and move forward with that voice Yeah, we'll find out on Friday. I hope we stay in, but either way, in or out, the world will keep turning, we'll still have to go to work, do the shopping, pay taxes, cook the dinner and tidy the house. I know that the rhetoric has got quite strong at times in the media as well as on the forums. But I think that we should all be thankful that we live in a society where the battle of idea is fought with words rather than violence. There are other countries in the world that would not be able to tackle such a question with as much restraint." Yes and we are allowing unrestricted numbers from those countries to come to europe | |||

"It won't ever happen (joining the euro) anyone with half a brain realises that it's economic suicide (plus whoever is PM at The time would get lynched). The only conceivable scenario is if Britain is forced or blackmail into it by bullying or ostracisation by other EU members" wonder if Boris would consider it..? ![]() | |||

"Michael heseltine just admitted that if we remain in the EU that the time will come where we will have to dump the pound and join the euro. I'm pretty sure David Cameron said this will never happen...." I think he is reported as saying "I think that there will come a time when Britain will join" Which is a reasonable position; he isn't reported as saying 'we will have to dump the pound'. I'm all for joining the Euro if it eventually becomes in our interests to do so. Extremely unlikely in the short and medium term but if the project changed and there became say two Euro currencies; one for the northern countries and one for the southern who knows? | |||

Our position towards the Euro, and indeed everything else to do with Europe and the EU, should be, if it's in Britain's best long-term interests. Currently it seems unlikely that joining the Euro, as currently constructed, would be in Britain's best long term interests and I can see no likelihood that if ever will but, if ever it was, then the right and best thing for Britain to do would be to join. | |||

Unless you count the EU as one economy then there are 2 economies that matter and then there's everyone else. The top 2 are bigger than the bottom 176 combined.

"just the latest scare mongering from the leave side It's not scaremongering it was said quite clearly by Michael heseltine who is a major part of the remain campaign. " It's scaremongering, just like saying Turkey's is joining the EU when it's not. There maybe a time in the far of distant future when both of these things happen, only a fool says never for ever, but neither is going to happen now, in the near future, in the lifetime of any on this site and quite probably ever.

The stated endgame of the EU is a federal republic, with all that implies - single currency, legislature, legal system, army, police force etc, etc. (all run by an unelected elite) If we vote to stay, this is the path we commit ourselves to. Oh we'll huff and puff and delay as long as we can, but unless the EU collapses first, we will be absorbed into the EUSR, being just another province." Project paranoia again. | |||

The only way we will adopt the euro is if WE choose to. who's 'we'? Obviously the UK, it's the sort of thing that no government would have the bottle to do without a referendum. well what if the EU said you must adopt the Euro or you will be expelled from the EU? Well they can't say that so the 'what if' is pointless. What if America decides to invade us as payback for war crimes from the war of independence? - you'll be glad to have some European allies then What if Germany takes over Europe as payback for losing the war? ....oh, hang on " What if the post-war German economic model is superior to ours and we could learn a thing or two from them? ... Oh, hang on | |||
