Brexit? In or out?

The sentiment is currently 50/50 in the UK at the moment

Is the EU a benefit to the UK or indeed to any country of the member nations? For many just the thought of sharing an apartment with some they like can cause serious doubts in their minds. So what happens when millions of people decide to share free access into the countries? What is the effect on you?

The UK government has increased the voting registration period to accommodate voters than waited last minute to register. It is estimated the these voters are made up by younger voters, that are more likely to vote to IN.

The IMF has been caught fearmongering, trying to sway the vote of British people. Their focus was on the economy. What will happen when the United Kingdom leaves the European Union? This is unknown, and to believe that a government organisation, that was blind to the housing crisis of 2007 - 08, will know what will happen, is up to your own judgement.

Interesting thought. Before considering giving an answer, I am just not really sure to what extent Steem could be used to discuss such controversial political concerns!

And in the words of Martin Luther King, Jr "The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. " What STEEMit is, is uncertain. Only time will tell I suppose, however, to talk about controversial topics is like fighting on the front line.

The tory party created the housing problem by selling off the social housing, they went off to blame the world banking crisis as the fault of the Labout party, time and time again our landed gentry get caught with there fingers in the till, they blame the rise of social sercurity payments on the disabled while giving tax breaks to Tescos to employ people on zero hour contracts the list goes on and on.
The farmers of the UK have the most to fear as the big chains will still import european products while UK farmers no longer get subsidies.
Those that retire to Spain will they still keep the medical card and will the spanish really want to keep these liggers on as they dont add any benifit to the spannish economy.
The idea that the UK can roll up the draw bridge and trade with the rest of the world with out trade deals is laughable in the extreme. The only option after leaving would be being an indentsured slave to big buisness with out rights as these companies want to sue the goverment if they cant pay people less then the living wage.
I love where I live in London its multi-cultural I have French, German, Polish, Afganni, Indian friends we now have our first Muslim Mayor in Hounslow and in the the first muslim mayor for london, I am Irish my perants came to the UK as economic-migrents then in the windows of the British rented sector it was no dogs no irish allowed.
I for one have no problem with Europe I love Paris and wish I could live in Itally. the English do not get a lot of info on how good europe is and the NO lot play on the fear of the stranger.
My wife once joked with her boss as he complained about he could not get any information about whats happenig in Europe and from Belgium where he came from and as quick as a flash she said ahhhhh Belgium is a place you go through to get to somewhere else!! We still have our humour and should be proud to be part of Europe.

New Brexit Polls seem to suggest that Britain may vote NO to Britain leaving the UK. Have the ELITES convinced the voters that staying in the EU is better for them, or have they just confused them? https://ig.ft.com/sites/brexit-polling/ Only time can tell, and more specifically the 23rd of June 2016

So this is basically asking is the E.U a benefit and should people in the UK share homes. this is my opinion the E.U is a benefit because with the help of the E.U great powers of b can maintain a stable government but lets be quite frank the government will never be stable unless Jeremy Corbyn wins the next general election. furthermore it depends n what sort of person you are either you or you don't share your apartment with someone else. someone who is less fortunate but why should you they are homeless. my question to reply to your questions is " is migration the real cause for the E.U referendum?"

The real reason for brexit

The focus of the media seems to be that the reason for people wanting to leave the EU is strictly economic, however they seem to be missing the fact that millions of immigrants from the EU and from non EU countries might be the driver.

In a recent poll the out camp seemed was greater than the in camp, why?

There are millions of immigrants in the UK, some estimate that its over 4 million and if current policies stay in place (i.e Britain stays in the EU) things will get worse.

What is the cost of an immigrant coming to the UK?
