Should Britain leave the E.U. ???
Cameron doesn't matter, he doesn't have any power. He's just a PR man and a mediator for the people who put him there. The out crowd speak of sovereignty and power as though more than a semblance of democracy exists in the UK. Just look at the smear campaign against Milliband or Corbyn or the two or so million voters for UKIP who got one MP. Thinking that leaving the EU will change this is absurd, it will only make it worse.
The referendum is the product of a decade or two of negative press and EU bashing by the personal press corps of Murdoch, Barcley, Desmond and Rothermere. You think these lot want what's best for the British people or the future of our country?
It's tempting to vote to stay out just to see who the Tory Press corps blame next for immigration, rising cost of living and sharp decline in wages, inequality and all the other evils they've left at the door of the EU, which are in fact just the logical conclusion of pure free market fundamentalism.
Personally I wonder what's the use of a referendum when public opinion is shaped and framed by a handful of people? Will the UK's problems go away by walking away from Europe? Do you really trust men like Boris Johnson, Murdoch or Gove to speak for you? For me the out campaign is about fear and lies not hope.
