UK to leave EU

[StuW]

Your basing that opinion on....?  As far as I can see there is no reason we cant be as well off or better without the sometimes ridiculous legislation set by Europe?

Scotland would be better off economically without the UK because London and the south east sucks all the wealth out of the rest of the country and then tells the different regions that they can't cope alone. It's like being an abused spouse.

The legislation created by Europe isn't done for the sake of it. Our environment has definitely improved as a result of being part of the EU. Personally I don't want to live in a shit hole to make other people richer.

Some of the legislation is indeed useful, I benefit from a number of them myself but a great deal of it is self serving to the largest European countries in the same way you describe London to the rest of the UK.  I'm also partially in agreement with the environmental legislation but when someone is under the mistaken opinion that reducing the maximum power of a kettle or toaster will make any difference (physics doesn't work like that) I start to wonder who's interests they are promoting.  Then you have the fact they put said legislation on hold until after the vote in case it swayed the tea and toast loving brits to vote leave!

One senior EU official said that the commission shelved an extension of the EU’s so-called eco-design rules because it was “sensitive to the British obsession with water kettles”. A special unit monitoring British issues — led by the veteran Eurocrat and tea-drinker Jonathan Faull — flagged the charged matter late last year. 

Claude Turmes, a Green MEP from Luxembourg who works on eco-design regulation, said he understood the delay was “linked to Brexit”.
