£75k a year + expenses equal to a working mans annual salary, 110 days paid holiday a year and they ask where to make austerity cuts? The only time we see our MP is 6 months before the election! For some reason i get a regular email telling me how much good my MP has been doing for the area and patting himself on the back doing the job he is paid to do!

Ever wondered why you mark your paper with a pencil tied to a piece of string in the booth??
I'm taking a pen just to make sure they know which way I vote! But if the majority of people vote 'in' you had best bring your own vaseline as the EU won't ease your pain when they bend us over |

This is from somebody that could hardly live further away from Scotland, and still be in the UK, if I tried. I just hope you were being ironic.

Those "undemocratic" Europeans with PR have no less than 24 UKIP MEPs supposedly representing us in Europe. Meanwhile, in the "democratic" UK, due to a flawed system called FPTP, there is just one single UKIP MP. What is even funnier is that Douglas Carswell seems to spend rather a lot of his time fighting with Nigel Farage.

.................
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our English dead! In peace there’s nothing so becomes a man, As modest stillness and humility; But when the blast of war blows in our ears, Then imitate the action of the tiger: Stiffen the sinews, conjure up the blood, Disguise fair nature with hard-favoured rage: Then lend the eye a terrible aspect; Let it pry through the portage of the head, Like the brass cannon; let the brow o’erwhelm it As fearfully as doth a galled rock O’erhang and jutty his confounded base, Swill’d with the wild and wasteful ocean. Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide; Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit To his full height. On, on, you noblest English, Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof! Fathers that, like so many Alexanders, Have in these parts from morn till even fought, And sheathed their swords for lack of argument. Dishonour not your mothers: now attest, That those whom you call’d fathers did beget you. Be copy now to men of grosser blood, And teach them how to war. And you, good yeoman, Whose limbs were made in England, show us here The mettle of your pasture: let us swear That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not; For there is none of you so mean and base, That hath not noble lustre in your eyes. I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game’s afoot: Follow your spirit; and upon this charge, Cry ‘God for Harry! England! and Saint George!' |

Hadn't realised that there were only 11 of us out of the 28 member states paying money in to the EU with rest taking out.
Interesting graphic I found on the BBC website showing how much each member contributes or takes out. |

Vote either way as per what you see with your OWN eyes. Do not believe any politician or government statistic.
The way the death of a poor women has been used to gain votes as the result of failed "care in the community"....shocking. There are those in government who should be ashamed of themselves. What a disgrace this whole referendum has been.

I have to agree with Jibba JabbA about the way that the campaign has been conducted. Spin and lies or half truths twisted to suit an argument. The fear tactics and the nasty personal attacks. I have also been amazed how little grasp the politicians have about reality and the problems facing us in the real world. It seems to me at times that certain politicians have been more concerned with their own future than with other people. Un fortunately in the area where I live over 30000 jobs have been lost in the last 5 years with absolutely no investment at all in the area to compensate. Many kids do a one year course at college and there are no jobs to go to. I feel desperately sorry for them. That is why I voted OUT.
