Nigel Farage calls for second referendum

Fear mongering is fair enough but not from the government and not using our money.

Why is it the best option? Economically the EU is a sinking ship and industry in the UK has gone backwards since joining.

UK has almost no voice in the EU anyway. We would be trading the next to nothing voice in the EU and little in the UK in exchange for full voice in the UK. What really matters.

Also by letting the immigrants in you are generating more opportunities for more jobs to open up as there will be more strain on services BUT If we go out of the EU the country will be stable and if we need more workers we just need a system in place to only allow ones in that would suit jobs that are in high demand.

How on earth is it racist to believe that we should be able to make our own laws, control our own borders etc. racist?
It is also not racist to believe we shouldn't be allowing anyone and everyone into our country. Just look at what happened in Paris - they registered an attacker as a refugee.
I don't suppose you happened to catch the BBC interview where they interviewed a young man from the Ivory Coast who was at Calais and admitted he was trying to come here for a "better" job, when he had one at home? It's estimated that up to 80% of these people are not from war torn countries.
Look it up - the EU isn't a good thing.

The attackers in Paris, and Belgium, were mostly home grown. Do you think the attacker who posed as a refugee would have been able to do anything if they hadn't been able to get weapons from existing extremists in France? Or do you think they were able to lug that all the way from Syria?

What has the crisis in Calais got to do with the EU?

So, how would the referendum address the impartiality of the Government?

That aside, why do you think that the EU is a sinking ship and why do you think that is important to whether we're a member? Do you think industry would return to the UK if we left?

The UK has a voice in the EU that is proportionate to it's size relative to the whole of the EU. Is this not fair? The voice of the remaining EU is still going to be bigger since they would be the larger, demographically and economically, partner in any post-leave negotiations that would take place.

I think this was proposed once. The previous Labour government wanted to create a low-skilled visa but scrapped it as the EU already provided enough migrants in this category.

I do see this as one of the few compelling arguments to leaving the EU though I'd rather not risk our financial stability for something which I, personally, doubt would result in any significant gain.

Well then clearly if the racists (I'm sorry, 'Euroskeptics' win and people vote to leave then we should also have another referendum.

I'm a Eurosceptic but I'd vote remain. I'm hopefully of a narrow win for In as it gives us more grounds for reforms, but I don't want to see, nor do I think there should be, a second referendum.

Just to be clear too, I have no issues with the Immigration side of things. It's more so about how the EU is run

One of the Labour MPs who helped to draft the Lisbon Treaty has said the EU cannot be reformed.
One of the former vice presidents has said that Cameron's "reforms" are not legally binding.
(Their names escape me, sorry)

I'd like to see evidence for it.

I'm fairly certain it's legally binding providing certain countries accept the terms and conditions. If it was genuinely not legally binding nor unable to reform, the Out campaign would have made a much much larger fuss about it.

Because it gives people time to forget all the scaremongering lies for one. It's going to be neck and neck and you're naive if you think the government hasn't been unfairly swaying things.

The UK doesn't need a voice in the EU (not that we have one). We need a voice for our own country. Every voice from the UK has been suppressed by the EU. Our geographical size is immaterial. We have the 3rd biggest population of any European country, not far behind France. So we should have a lot bigger say than zero. EU bureaucracy has been crippling international trade for the UK. Stifling healthy competition with red tape.

Norway were fed the same pack of lies in the mid 90s when they rejected EU membership and they're doing great. The non EU countries in Europe all have great economies. This isn't a coincidence.

If a second referendum were to happen people would still campaign for either position. There'd still be scaremongering, from either side.

Your second point doesn't make any sense. As I said before, our voice is proportionate to our size in the EU. Why do you think that we don't have one, or that our voice is being suppressed? What EU beureaucracy has crippled international trade and has stifled healthy competition?

You mean like Norway, Switzerland, Luxembourg?

Because we all know the only reason these are successful is that they are not in the EU.

The EU have encouraged people to travel here, instead if helping them in their home countries.

Your point is flawed there. If there are extremists travelling within the EU supplying weapons etc, we are definitely better off out. At this moment in time, the UK has no right to turn anyone form the EU away based on their criminal record. So these people can be travelling freely into our country.

But not proportionate to the amount we pay in. As I said earlier, we pay in the second largest amount but have one of the smallest voices. How is this fair?

Ok... and still this wouldn't have anything to do with us. We're not forced to accept these people.



How is it flawed? Free travel within the EU stops at the border between France and the UK, and the border security there is pretty significant. I mean you could try and travel to the UK with weapons in the back of your car but I doubt you're going to get anywhere.

As far as I'm aware the UK has the right to return an EU migrant if they are a criminal. Criminal records are another thing, though we can reject anyone who comes from outside of the EU.
We're the 4th largest contributor to the EU, not the second.We make up 10% of the budget and have 12% of the vote in the European Council and 10% of the vote in the European Parliament. How is that not proportionate (if not in our favour)?Regardless, would you rather the EU were a plutocracy? Power is shared in accordance to the size of each countries population, not their wealth.

If remain wins, the EU will find it has free reign to do whatever it wants with zero risk. We'll likely see a lot of negative things happening merely weeks later. You'll be screaming for a second referendum then.

Define what you call "voice". What exactly have we voiced that the EU actually took note of? Every motion by the UK has been denied. The EU has imposed import tariffs which allows inferior products to avoid having to compete with non-EU products. This repeated over a long period of time causes market stagnation. If the EU is so wonderful then why is it the only shrinking market in the world? Use your head. Just because you're negative and afraid of change, it doesn't mean we should let people like you drag the country down and not allow it to reach its full potential.

Go watch brexit the movie.

Fine then, 10% average. yet the EU controls 100% of our economy, 50% of our laws etc. etc. It's undemocratic.
All 28 leaders agreed to abolish the 5% VAT on tampons, yet this can be overturned by the European Commission, none of whom are elected. Fair, right?
