We're faced with a simple choice: do we believe that the future for our country and the world lies in greater co-operation or in greater nationalism?

The EU remains an extremely effective means for the countries of Europe to work together to improve things for their citizens and bring our countries and markets closer together. Being part of the EU boosts our economy, increases our influence over Europe, amplifies our voice on the international stage and gives great freedoms to all British citizens.

We're approaching the final date to register to vote - June 7th

Please don't lose your democratic voice and make sure you are registered.

hmm it was looking like 'IN' was almost a lock a few days ago but now the betting markets have shifted a bit, GBP has dropped... could easily be quite a close result either way

'IN' still looking more likely however like those 'silent Tories' who showed the general election polling to be useless there are a decent % of 'undecided voters' out there who could well swing it in a big way to either direction. In fact any scare stories about migrants, terrorist incidents, mass sexual assaults or a stupid comment from an EU commissioner or similar could throw it straight into the 'OUT' campaigns hands.

Very interesting the way the OcUK polls show a growing lead for 'leave' over the months.

Leave is the only sane choice. The issue is one of Sovereignty, and we will never be a Sovereign country while we are part of the EU club - governed from Brussels.

A vote to 'leave' is also a vote to try and protect what little of our country remains from the hordes of immigrants currently trying to get here. Immigrants which the EU will force down our throat and make us pay for (they are already talking about additional EU-wide taxes to fun migrant care ffs).

EU referendum: Boris Johnson and Michael Gove pledge tough new Australian-style points-based immigration system after Brexit



Boris: Migrants who want to enter Britain must speak English
Brexiters unveil new Australian-style points-based system
Theresa May scrapped aerial border surveillance despite warnings

OECD warns Brexit would have a 'substantial' impact
More than £670 million of EU spending was lost to fraud

Given these shocking statistics on immigration it's no wonder the pundits now believe the final outcome of the vote will hinge on how people view this situation. Here are some figures:

Between 2001 and 2014, 3.3 m migrants came to the UK

Our population rose by 491,000 from 2013 to 2014 — one of the fastest rates of any industrial country

Official projections suggest the UK population (now 65m) will exceed 70m in 11 years, hit 77m by 2050 and pass 80m by 2060

The cost of immigration between 1995 and 2011, according to a study, was up to £114bn

Births in the UK rose from 668,777 in 2002 to 778,805 in 2013. Of these, births to immigrant mothers almost doubled from 110,484 to 196,806

Women born abroad contributed 27% of all live births in England and Wales in 2014, and 33% of babies had at least one immigrant parent

126,000 children of school age have come to the UK from the European Economic Area since 2004

Labour said 13,000 Eastern Europeans a year would come here. Yet 53,000 entered in the first year and 76,000 the next (both figures thought to be big underestimates)

You mean like the US State Department issuing a EU wide travel warning
due to threat of terrorist attacks? Careful what you wish for ;)

As part of the State Department’s continuous efforts to provide Americans travelling abroad with information about relevant events, we are alerting U.S. citizens to the risk of potential terrorist attacks throughout Europe, targeting major events, tourist sites, restaurants, commercial centers and transportation. The large number of tourists visiting Europe in the summer months will present greater targets for terrorists planning attacks in public locations, especially at large events. This Travel Alert expires August 31, 2016.
