    so we should decide based on what affects 2% of the population?

    As you were studying via the OU you could have completed that in the UK whilst working here. Then once qualified you could move.
    1.8 million Britons, but never mind, just take away their freedom. Small in relative terms, but in real terms, quite a lot.

        Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

        No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

          What freedom has been taken away from 64 million Britons? I've never actually had a firm answer to this; what freedoms have been removed from you by the EU?

                Probably a lot more than that if you count the British citizens in the EU, Australia, the US, Canada, NZ and the smaller numbers in other parts of the world.

                  yup, and they want all decisions to be made by the Queen
