Only EU citizens can come and settle here. Simply being in Germany doesn't get you anything.

Does anyone actually believe the EU are going to allow the UK to decide it's own fate, with billions of pounds of EU money at stake?

OutrageousOriginally posted by DimPrawn View PostReferendom will be rigged. Look at the Irish and the Lisbon Treaty.
The first referendum on the Treaty of Lisbon held on 12 June 2008 was rejected by the Irish electorate, by a margin of 53.4% to 46.6%, with a turnout of 53%.
The second referendum on the Treaty of Lisbon held on 2 October 2009 and the proposal was approved by 67.1% to 32.9%, with a turnout of 59%.
Are you trying to tell me democracy is not as democratic as advertised?
