Just remember this though,as well as the amount given weekly to the EU there is also the foreign aid budget which I believe is....12.2 billion per year! Can you believe that!! So, consider this...if Brexit does indeed take place several issues must be addressed.No longer can we as a nation allow massive sums of money be given to all and sundry, it MUST stop except in genuine obvious need.The manner of government is dated and must also change. In short the road will be bumpy but the rewards are tremendous.....

shrimpnsave wrote:Regarding foreign aid, It's not logical to borrow more and more money, to give so much of it away to foreign countries. Especially when we are repeatedly told we are in debt. Our political masters are total numbskulls. The young are naive and will see the errors of their way in the future.

I don't think either side is making a good case, and whilst it doesn't affect me, as my mind is made up, it does worry me that those undecided aren't having a meaningful, well-constructed case made from which they can make an educated decision.
I think the reason the young are more pro-Remain is that, generally, they have a more progressive, open outlook on life, whilst the older people are more set in their ways and less open to change.

There's a touch of 'arrogance' about the above as well if you don't mind me saying so. Its a sweeping generalization on both groups of people. "The Young" , at least the ones in my family and their friends all lean slightly towards Remain but when you examine their reasons it tends to be because they don't want to risk 'all the nasty things that could happen if they leave' (Remains media scare stories ?) - "Why change things we've always been in and everything seems to work fine" sort of thing.
Whereas the 'older generation' Brexit types could perhaps be viewed as more progressive or at least remembering a time when we weren't in the EU and things worked fine and can envisage a future of complete self determination and independence.

The telling comment, when asked to name a single economist anywhere supporting the BREXIT, was a feeble, ''Economists do sometimes get things wrong'', ffs!

maybe Gove is being honest, instead of telling Lies to get out of trouble like Cameron.
And one thing is for sure, Gove got a better reception than Cameron and a better applause from the audience .

so been on google to see if it's not just bullshit by Brexit campaigners , and it's now got me wondering why...
