It's strange with you living abroad, why you want the EU broken up. I still don't understand why you are so for stone age, pre 80's.

The evidence is clear that the GBP has gone down, not as much as they thought, but still gone down...

What idiots would make a statement like this, and this is what I hear every day on the news. So basically, "we're fucked, but not as fucked as we thought". He didn't fuck me in the ass, just the pussy
I moved to Czech before Czech joined the EU. My Brother lived and worked in Switzerland, Singapore and then America for 40 years. Mother and Father emigrated to America in 1984. So why do you assume people can't live and work in Europe without there being the EU?

The difference the EU made was it allowed low-skilled, non-skilled, not required, unemployed, to move to the countries with better benefits systems to move out of the poorer countries to lower wages and put a strain on the taxpayers.

If the EU is so great for the Brits, prove it with a chart showing the rise in income and living standards.

The wage share ? wages expressed as a share of total national income ? has fallen since the early 1980s, highlighting the decoupling of earnings from output and accounting for a third of the decline in median wages relative to GDP in the UK over the last 35 years. Howard Reed summarises his recent report, arguing a new social contract is required, and estimates the contribution that a selection of policies might make towards reversing the decline in the wage share.
