    Just imagine if the UK hadn't have joined the EU in 1975

    No trade, no jobs, no food, no energy, no water, no medical care, no transport, no economy, no money.

    I mean all these are going to end if we leave the EU, so the UK would now be an uninhabited island off the coast of the EU if we hadn't had all the wonderful things the EU brings. Anyone who set foot here would be effectively a Robinson Crusoe type outcast.

    Incredible to think. Thank god we joined the EU in 1973!

              Fact: Engerrrrrrland has only won the World Cup whilst being out of the EU
              How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

                Fact: After joining the EU in 1973 the UK went into recession until 1975 with GDP nosediving by 3.9% and not recovering until 1976

                  Yep, we Brexined once before, and UK economy crashed big time.

                    We didn't join the EU...

                    We joined the EEC..

                    The EU was foisted upon us without our consent.

                    That's why we should leave and precipitate its final collapse.
