You don't believe that EU companies have any obligation to their government, or to the rest of the organisations that remain partners in the EU? I presume you've thought this all through, because you can't surely think it's as easy as saying "we're out" and everything else continues in the same way?

We live in a Global Village and in theory can trade with all companies (incl European ones). The issue at question is how the Political structures that now constitute the EU affect the UK. From the perspective of trading with European Companies I'm sure the UK is subject to a mass of EU regulations covering everything from Import taxes to curvature of Banana's.
But the purpose of this thread is to discuss how the whole European project which first had Britain's involvement in 1974 has changed beyond all recognition from a Trading alliance to its present form of peusdo European Superstate, with all the accompanying rules,regulations,laws (Human rights Acts) and the UK's legal obligation to follow these laws which supersede our own highest lawmaking body ie House of Lords. Our Courts ie High Court or soon to be established UK Supreme Court will still not have the final say over the European Supreme Court.
So is it right we pay so much and give away so much of our indepenent Sovereignty for what....!!!! not needing a passport to go to France eg.. is that a fair exchange ????
