    I can vote in local elections here in Bavaria and in Edinburgh, as well as UK national elections

    The sooner the EU harmonises tax rules across all EU countries the better. A EU passport would be nice too.

        Easy to implement. Find the country with the overall highest taxes and everyone pays that.

        That's how it will be implemented anyways, with all monies going to the EU Central Bank, to then vanish into nowhere...

          We can all share in the spoils. UK financial industry gains are crook based anyway, swings and roundabouts.

            What about all those UK schools and hospitals that they pay for though.

            But outside the UK who in the EU cares? Tax them to death

              Really quite a menacing piece in a German newspaper.

              Should the British vote against Brexit, perhaps by 55% or 60% rather than 50.1%, then that would be a mandate. Then the British should stop doing the things that have irritated the rest of Europe for years: special requests, self-pity and wretched haggling over every last detail.
              like Germany never does that.

              So if we remain we have to do whatever Germany wants.

                  Over £1 billion of tax collected goes on debt interest every week. Did you hear what I just said? £1 billion!

                  UK Debt Clock | £1,632,907,034,937 I remember when that number was just sailing over the £1 trillion a few years back.

                  The country is so bankrupt and the longer we don't declare it the bigger the explosion is going to be.

                  A complete crash on the pound might be excellent way out. Thinking about it, inflation rises to 8% overnight and we we inflate our way out of debt in a few years.

                    We need someone to tell us what to do. Autonomy is not our forte.

                      In the latest of a number of rather depressing forecasts, a leading Remain spokesman warned today that the sky will fall in on June 24th if Britain votes to Leave the EU.
                      The report, drawn up at the request of Mr Jean-Claude Junkbottom, an unelected and well-paid Brussels/Strasbourg based bureaucrat, is being taken very seriously. Mr Junkbottom is the Commissioner for Responsibly Audited Propaganda (CRAP for short).
                      The author of the Report, a Professor Chicken McLickin, former advisor to David Cameron and Head of the Royal Institute for Supplying Incomprehensible Bulltulip, Lies and Embellishment (RISIBLE) says we should all be very worried.
                      Following hard on the heels of his other claims that Unicorn stocks are dropping to dangerously low levels and that Boris Johnson is actually a giant megalomaniac Lizard with incurable dandruff, Bremainers hope this latest Report will reassure insecure Remain supporters still reeling from a plethora of fact-based information thrust at them by the Leave Camp.


                      There is another way of defining the two sides in the Brexit debate. One side does humour and the other is the grey suited humourless control freaks of the establishment.
                      Another one today BT And Unions To Warn Staff Of Brexit Risk - though to be fair to Gavin Patterson he has abandoned the "suit" look. Nevertheless BT is the epitome of the giant corporate monopoly that fully represents "the establishment". Dyson and JCB on the other hand were founded by maverick entrepreneurs who built their businesses from nothing.
