Bremainers: how are you going to reform the EU?
Watch
Announcements
I often hear from those in favour or remaining in the EU that we should do it so we can reform the EU to operate the way we want it to, something that cannot be done outside the EU. Of course, this overlooks the history of our relationship with the EU, a history of failed reforms even before we joined. If we need any more proof that we cannot reform the institution from within we need look no further than Cameron's so called "renegotiation", a renegotiations that can be summed up as "I didn't have to give anything away." If with the threat of leaving we cannot get any meaningful concessions or reforms then how are we going to do it when we are locked in for a generation and come the next opportunity to leave it won't be leaving a political union, it will be a secession from a state?

Vote in MEPs and MPs depending on what reforms you want.

And rely on enough of the other member states to vote according to the same reforms?

It's only something at the centre of the argument for many people. Brexiters get shot down for the honest "nobody has a clue" economic answer, funnily nobody challenges the reform argument, possibly because it is known to be a load of tosh.

I'm yet to see a single remainer actually say they are going to reform the EU, but then again I don't spent the majority of my days relentlessly trying to force my political views on students on an online forum

What I'd like would be to see the removal of the CAP. However, realistically, I do close to no actual campaigning so all I'll do will be to argue the point on the internet.

Personally, I think the only way to solve our problems is for the UK government to get itself in gear. Immigration isn't the issue on its own and leaving or remaining in the EU won't change much positively either way.
