Leaving the EU is a stupid idea.
Just like being anti immigration is moronic.
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
Why?
EU laws are taking over our laws in all walks of lifes IMO
My English is not very good
and they are generally better, more fair.
Human rights act anyone?
cross border trade?
Haalth and safety?

how about this

They don't seem to care about UK laws
My English is not very good
I agree with the ruling.
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
Really, why?
My English is not very good
Because it wasnt right.
Even the Daily Mail threw a hissy fit at the rule when it found out that it also affected white-folk (though I am sure they wouldnt have minded if it "only" affected other foreigners).
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
But that's not looking at the wider picture, a lot of young Asian girls and boys are going to be forced into getting married at an earlier age because of this law being abolished just like before and they might have wanted to continue with there studies - It has been seen that young girls are taken on holiday in the summer and then they are forcefully married off against there will
My English is not very good
or the same number of people will be forced and it would not have had any difference.
The age of adulthood in the UK is 18.
They could still be married off forcefully. the only think that was stopped was them bringing their husbands over.
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
No, because they want the husband to come over ASAP after the marriage so there thinking if we get her married off at 18 there's not point because it's going to take 3 years for her husband to come over so why not just wait till 21 that way we can submit the app for the hubby to come over straight away after the marriage
My English is not very good
so they still get forced?
either way, you are looking at the smaller picture, and that is dealt with with making forced marriage illegal and a criminal offence, not by banning everyone under 21.
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
Not sure, but at least they get to complete there studies if the age was left at 21
What's the punishment for forcing someone into a marriage agents there will?
Has anyone ever faced that punishment to date, has anyone ever been charged with such an offence?
My English is not very good
They're can't just leave the EU
"How many people find fault in what they're reading and the fault is in their own understanding" Al Mutanabbi
Why not?
We didn't abolish our currency for the Euro
My English is not very good
That is different, the connection is already so it would be hard to get out Of as it would affect Other things like trade, jobs, immigration etc
"How many people find fault in what they're reading and the fault is in their own understanding" Al Mutanabbi
We do trade with many countries that doesn't mean we have to be a part of them to do trade
The EU immigrants do jobs at a lower wage which means they're taking jobs away from the British people who demand the minimum working wage, if we got out of the EU then we would have more jobs for the people living within the UK
My English is not very good
Why dont you think we should be a part of the EU?
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
Why should we be?
we have our own history and culture
we have our own rules and regulations
we have our own currency, its worth more then the Euro afaik
Would there not be infighting about this issue within the UK itself Northern Ireland, Scotland Wales? they might want to split from us because of this
My English is not very good
Go back a generation and your ancestors were proably not even from the UK.
(The euro and the EU are different things.)
The heritage and culture argument for you is bogus.
Parts of Scotland wants to leave the UK and have closer integration with the EU.
Parts of Northern ireland wants out of the UK too.
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
That's true
But the euro is the currency for all EU member countries AFAIK so it could be linked with this argument
It's not about me alone it's about the heritage and culture of this country as a whole
Maybe they feel that not enough power is given to them in the first place so they'd rather be ruled by the EU where they might feel listened too
My English is not very good
It is easier to trade within the EU so leaving would be a disadvantage and I'm sure other agreements and treaties have been signed which would affect other aspects of the country/peoples' lives.
The euro is not the currency for all EU countries...otherwise we would be using it too.

How about the EU debt that we might have to help pay off?

17 out of 27 member countries use it and how before the others are forced to use it by some EU law?
My English is not very good
Err my point is, it would be incredibly hard to get out of the EU because of the agreements made. If you break a contract you're gna have to face the consequences aren't you!
"How many people find fault in what they're reading and the fault is in their own understanding" Al Mutanabbi
Then they should have asked us what we the public think before making any kind of contract
My English is not very good
Until recently all EU laws have REQUIRED that every single country agree to them beforehand. Any eu wide legislation that any one country disagreed with would not go ahead.
(This got changed recently to majority only, as getting 27 countries to do a referendu on small minutea is not a good way to run things).
You perfect fit the bill of a Daily Mail reader.
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
It's pointless moaning about this, now.
"How many people find fault in what they're reading and the fault is in their own understanding" Al Mutanabbi
I didn't know that
Why do say it's not a good way to run things? but that's democracy- you ask everyone to vote for what there opinion is on a particular issue no matter if its on a big or small issue
You've said that so many times it's starting to feel like a compliment
My English is not very good
lool
"How many people find fault in what they're reading and the fault is in their own understanding" Al Mutanabbi
We only ask which party will make the legislation for the next 5 or so years.
We rarely get asked about any individual piece of legislation passed.
Did you vote in the educational legislation passed last year? I didnt.

We got asked about FPTP in 2010
We should do
