Hypothetical Question: If We Had Never Joined Europe …..

[naomi24]

…. and were invited to join now, would you vote ‘Yes’ or ‘No’?

[CrapAtCryptics]

if it ran properly maybe yes but its a dogs breakfast

[waterboatman]

Definitely NO!

[Svejk]

Not likely.

[Zacs-Master]

Impossible to say without knowing what our economic situation would be.

[naomi24]

Assume for arguments sake we're as we are now.

[Zacs-Master]

Then, no. But the hypothesis is very far fetched.

[naomi24]

Fair enough. Thanks for your answer.

[mikey4444]

Too far-fetched a hypothesis for me I'm afraid.

[Baldric]

No.

[EDDIE51]

A lot of people are so stupid they think we ARE being asked if we want to join Europe or not! ( I have talked to many who believe that!)
For myself I hope I would say 'yes' but as Z M has said the information we are getting would be so radically different I can't see how you can make a choice.

[youngmafbog]

Why would anyone want to join the current EU mess?

The answer from any sane person would have to be NO, unless you were a complete basket case like one of the PIGS.

And I am pretty sure the UK would not be in that situation if we had not joined.

[youngmafbog]

I dont know the people you mix with Eddie, but folk I have spoken to from all walks of life dont think that. Not a single one.

[Old_Geezer]

Why is this in 'news' and not 'jokes' ?
No non-desperate country is going to join that catastrophe are they.

[Old_Geezer]

Interesting. By staying in wouldn't we be giving the green light to integrate us more fully ? I suppose, in a sense, we are being asked to join (fully) now.

[Cloverjo]

I'd say yes. No one else likes us. Who else are we going to be political friends with?

[TWR]

To be dictated by un-elected bunch of cranks NO, to have our Justice System over ruled by Idiots NO, to have Fruid / Veg such as the bent Cucumber / Banana, refused to be sold because of it's shape, NO, After seeing, Ireland , Greece, Spain put into Bankruptcy, NO, to put Fishing Fleets out of Production because of Red Tape, NO.

[naomi24]

It’s not difficult a difficult question, but I can’t help thinking some here are ducking it. Can't think why. :o)

[dannyk13]

NO

[RATTER15]

No!

[horselady]

No.
