    Do members of the Libertarian party prefer Cheese and Onion or Roast Chicken flavoured crisps?

    I actually like the idea of direct democracy myself however i do not believe that people have the political awareness to analyse each policy and vote upon it.

    That said i would like to see more referendums.

    I know you don't mean that, but I specifically asked why you want more referendums, in what way would it be beneficial?

    I think that although it would be nice to have our own freedoms clawed back from Brussels - we are too involved in the EU that complete isolationism would not work.

    I agree with the EU as an economic union, but not a political one. European countries have fought for hundreds of years for freedom from the colonial masters of Europe - and it's about time they don't get dragged into another one.

    That's pretty well why the Europeans hate us so much.

    Why would you support a European economic union when we could have free trade with the entire planet?

    Not sure "winning" is really the right word for it.

    That's a markup for a Tory. Normally you're blind to the way Britain waltzed around the world as the pre-eminent colonial power in history.

    You'll find that I'm a libertarian - not a Tory.

    I'd rather the whole world had free trade with the whole world.


    The CAP is an absolute disgrace.

    CAP is one of the most disgusting policies of the EU.
