    im out. purely based on the sovereignty issue. it shouldn't affect us in any way as we would still be part of the common market - that doesnt/shouldnt have anything to do with the political union. travel will be the same, jobs will be the same, immigration will be the same, but it would give us the ability to have tighter control on things like benefits tourism, nhs tourism, stop businesses employing slave labour,

    the politicians want in for personal selfish reasons - they want high paid jobs in Brussels

    all of the BS around 'you wouldnt have had this if you werent in Europe" is utter tosh! how do they know? do they have the ability to view parallel universes?

    all the BS from both sides about the future is tosh too... who knows whats going to happen?

    IMHO sovereignty is the only issue on the table worth anything.
