Strike deals with Brazil, India, China, etc. The EU would eventually come crawling on their knees. Whether they like it or not we will be successful outside the EU, and countries such as Holland and Denmark will pull out eventually. The EU's days are numbered. [Post edited 30 Jun 2016 21:20]

I'm all for us losing the EU bureaucracy. I think the future of Europe could be an enlarged EFTA ie the EU without Brussels or pretensions of a Federal state which would be a great result. I just hope it doesn't tip Europe into a disastrous recession en route. [Post edited 30 Jun 2016 22:16]

It's utter madness to have olive farmers in Portugal using the same currency as motor manufactures in Germany. It can't work. It won't ever work. I just can't understand why the Mediterranean countries have put up with it. Btw nice little run for your pension I imagine. [Post edited 30 Jun 2016 22:30]

Andrea Leadsom set to run on 22:37 - Jun 30 with 683 views | LenWilkins | We seem to agree on that too. The Euro was and is a nonsense as you say. It has helped the Med countries milk the tourists as it put up the price of everything in restaurants and bars in resorts but that's about it. My SIPP (100% UK based patriotic equities) is doing just fine at present thanks. [Post edited 30 Jun 2016 22:38]

The big problem with trading under WTO rules is the passporting of the service industry, you do that and you'll lose it, don't believe me try renting an office in Dublin's financial district right now. | | | |

Andrea Leadsom set to run on 14:51 - Jul 2 with 548 views | saint68 | I'd rather have a fracking boom than an immigrant boom any day. So she definitely has my backing despite the fracking. | |

Andrea Leadsom set to run on 16:31 - Jul 2 with 520 views | inthebox | Why so scared of immigrants? | | | |
Andrea Leadsom set to run on 16:42 - Jul 2 with 515 views | dune | Was gonna put £200 on her to win yesterday at 5/1. Left it and just went to do it and she's 5/2 now. Not gonna bother. I will regret it. | |

Andrea Leadsom set to run on 16:48 - Jul 2 with 509 views | saint68 | Not scared but practical, this country cannot keep admitting millions of immigrants without a limit!! It's simply impossible and if you can't see that then there is no point in further discussion. | |
