lmfao try upperknockbreda road belfast before you try call out locations lolol....half my famm live there whilst im UK. Its part of the british isles and i for one thing would love to help cover / sub the North. I have spent years back and forth to Nireland...and i for one know your just a young buck listening to young liberalist and scared of backing out. Ireland has been doing fine for years without the EU before it was established. The UK was a economic might years ago. The 70/80/90s where the best times since then hows your low payed job doing ya? Paramedics and trainers are untermench jobs (tho i 100% dont think that personally and respect your job) im merely stating fact!!! Pls dont think im hating on you or being negative but OUT is the only way forward....ask yourself this. You could turn down any job you wanted to years ago at top rates....25 years later and housing schooling hospitals are all worsening and whilst you struggle hard to grind your wage i was earning more 25 years ago so hows that for being better of when cost of living has gone up say around 400%


Well, firstly I made these opinions of my own accord, I haven't listened to anything on the news because politics are completely pointless in my eyes. Secondly, yes. If this was twenty or thirty years ago I'd be earning far more. Mainly because Northern Ireland used to specialise in ship building and they were extremely good at it. That will never be the case again. The shipbuilding and steel firms have shut down and they wont be starting back up meaning that Northern Ireland has lost its biggest exporter.

As I said, I'm training to be a paramedic, I'm not quite there yet but I do it because I like to help people. The money is completely irrelevant to me otherwise I would be trying to be a doctor as opposed to a paramedic. I don't think you're being negative or hating.

In conclusion, I don't really care what happens. If we can leave the EU and Northern Ireland is exactly the same as before then great, I'm all for it but it's definitely a risk.
tnx for your understanding...yes i agree the ship building industry has died a death but that dont mean your electronics industry cant develop, export and trade more. Again its not like other countries and companys will stop trading it actually means new contracts can be negotiated. Ireland england and any other country will benifit from the collapse of the EU. The EU is for beurocrats and corrupt politicians...that is all. Research george soros and you will begin to understand..not his general google background neither, more his murky shady dealings within the EU and the things he stands for. I honestly never thought ide see the day when the irish gave up their beliefs and indapendance to another country....

Yes thats a bit of a wooh statement with the north south divide but i draw again to the british isles and our common language and beliefs. No different from wales or scottland really

I voted leave. We aren't a great country no more when we used to be. Our Government is corrupt as sin and only care for those who are rich.

If we stay in the EU they want to remove the NHS to make it a private sector which means us mediocre on an "alright" wage are going to suffer.

We fought two wars, for what? At this point it looks like we fought for nothing but greed, yet it hasn't helped us at all.

Facts:

In the time it takes to read this leaflet the UK will have paid £58,219.18 to the EU. Over a year, that's enough to pay for 38 state of the art new hospitals. (HoC Library)

Food is 17% more expensive as a direct result of EU policies. (IEA)

50% of UK laws are now made in Brussels. (HoC Library)

The UK is unable to defend its interest in the EU. Its share of the vote over European Union law is just 11%, and a mere $5 of EU policymakers are British. (EU)

Total immigration from the EU in the last 3 years is greater than the population of Leeds. (ONS)

Only outside the EU can we be sure the UK NEVER adopts the Euro, fact.


EU Myth Busters:

Without the EU, wouldn't we be less secure?

Only by leaving the EEU will the UK have total control of its borders and be able to deport dangerous foreign criminals. Cross-border security and intelligence cooperation is in every European country's interest, and will continue, regardless of the outcome of the EU referendum.

Won't leaving the EU make our economy weaker?


The UK is the world's fifth largest economy, boasting among the highest economic growth and lowest unemployment rates in the developed world, not to mention the EU. It also receives the most foreign investment in Europe. Leaving the EU will improve our quality of life: with its right to strike deals restored, the UK will be able to gain better access to those markets that buy most of our goods and services.

Won't we have less global influence?

The EU takes the UK's place in many global bodies and overrules Britain in most of the others: climate change, the environment and standards are just a few examples. Once outside the EU, Britain will be able to capitalise on its enormous cultural, political, economic, scientific and business clout in global affairs.

Won't the 'special status' the Prime Minister negotiated with other EU leaders solve these issues?

The only meaningful part of the agreement, the 'emergency brake' on in-work benefits for EU migrants, is yet to be approved by the European Parliament. Meanwhile, promises to protect Britain from deeper integration are not legally binding.

Won't we lose many financial benefits If we leave the EU?

Britain is not better off in the European Union - we pay far more into the EU budget than we get in return. Leaving the EU would provide a £15.3bn windfall, enough to pay for 38 new hospital and still double the current EU spending on Research and Development in the UK. Britain's national and regional governments would also decide how this money is spent, not the EU.

I say leave.

The EU has been a good experiment and all, but thanks to it's mishandling of the refugee crisis and the fact that the UK has to pay over a billion pounds to the EU, I say they should be in control of their own economics.

I'll be voting Remain purely due to the fact that Leave say this that and the other will happen but they have absolutely no facts to back it up. They lie about their 'facts' too, we don't send £350m to the EU every week, we send apporximately £170m whilst the rest is used by the Government and the EU on projects within the UK such as regeneration of cities, including re-developments and public highways, maintainance etc..

Basically, we pay like £3 each for the ability to move freely around Europe, have workers rights, free healthcare around Europe, no charges to use mobile phones in Europe, small or no charges to businesses in import/export, the minimum wage would continue to rise, big businesses move their European Operations to the UK due to the ease of setting up, direct links to Europe on top of us being an English speaking nation.

By leaving the EU we would face cutbacks of £40bn meaning money would NOT be spent on the NHS like the claim, that'd mean longer waiting times for treatment and appointments, essentially risking life or death. The NHS Cheif has even said it'd be 'Very Dangerous' to leave. The NHS would likely be privatised if we left too, meaning no more free healthcare, something which will significantly impact every single one of us.

Vote Remain is the only logical solution, Leaving would destroy the economy and destroy the nation.
