"Unemployed Britons in richer EU states outnumber claimants from those countries in UK"

there is so much to answer, from both sides, even immigration wise, what happens to Britts living/working on EU countries? what happens to EU citizens (like myself) living here?
What happens to trading and financial services? IMHO, this seems like a big dropback on leaving EU
- The Out campaign is a clusterfuck of real politik obliviousness. If we vote 'Out' we will definitely be 'OUT' and very-much charged as such.detritus

Call me stupid but the OUT campaign has yet to give a compelling reason to leave #idontwanttoleave

Now it's getting personal.
Brexit would put Game of Thrones under threat

Just one thought, and it's not about movement of labor:
Currently the Hungarian government is specialized to get the most out of the EU subsidies.Overpaid instruments in tenders are common, but we have some really disgusting things going on around here like never opening swimming pool, football stadium in EVERY FUCKING CITY , and creating foundations to absorb grants in every possible way. And these are just the big players.
Without these funds Hungary would be in an economic and financial crisis.It's embarrassing for me to pay attention to what is happening in the UK. Because I know my country's leaders are part of this outcry. Britain is the third-biggest net contributor to the budget, but they can not raise their voice against this type of theft.

Any loss by the working classes has been to the world's economy, not the EU's. What hope do you have for our workers if their voice is but a fart in the dark?
Change from within, brother.

I'm with the stays but it's not black and white. And as is often the case, The Economist's takes on it are pretty compelling.

yea, cameron is only protecting his political career and the benefits the EU has brought in terms of post-war peace, improved worker rights, better environmental regulations, reduced trade barriers/tariffs, research co-operation, protection of poorer regions etc etc are not things the Tories are particularly interested in or care about.

IN guy on the radio asked "what will the OUT campaign deliver" . even i know that you dont know until you're in a position to do something about it so at the moment their answer would probably be "we dont know yet"
- same for the in vote - whats going to happen in the future? turkey? collapse of greece? who knows.trooperbill

Yanis Varoufakis called on Brits to vote strategically on June 23, the date of Britain’s ‘In/Out’ EU referendum.
“Neither withdrawing into the safe cocoon of the nation state, nor giving in to the disintegrating and anti-democratic EU, represent good options for Britain,” he said.
“So instead of seeing the referendum as a vote between these two options, and these two options alone, the UK needs a third option: to vote to stay in the European Union so that it can fight tooth and nail against the EU’s anti-democratic institutions.”

if the brits leave the EU, the germans will put half-hourly passport controls in place in every european vacation spot. might revive the english seaside towns, though.
