There are elements of the EU which I don't like - a non-directly elected president , and TTIP, just to name two of them. But that doesn't mean you have to cut off your nose to spite your face, within any governmental organisation you have to be mature and work to find agreements and fight for what you truly believe in. A lot of people dislike the way our House of Commons is run, shall we just walk away from that also? Of course you don't, that wouldn't benefit anyone. And it's the same for the EU. Seems to me that Euroscepticism is just a way to euphemism the fact that people are too lazy to look towards sensible reform an would rather just look at the issue in a very black-or-white way.

immigration is a minor problem , its low on the list of an infinite list of disasters at the EU
80,000 word of laws and rules and regulations that no one has even read
over 400 pages
strangling small businesses and strengthening massive corporate monopoly takeovers. ....
it favours the 1 controlling nation Germany (and Austria and france)
it enslaves us to corporations even more, it has widened the wealth gap even more, it has created endless tax loop holes for corporations and billionaires even more, it has wiped out entire industries in many nations including ours....it has a totally biased unlevel playing field, as we see with german energy prices 50% lower than ours,....even the rules are applied differently. how is german coal and steel booking? are they meeting the same costs and pollution limits? nope. they haven't even audited their accounts for 20 years....the waste, the debts, the corruption is staggering....why are America demanding we stay? because it suits their corporate interests. simple. where has our ship building, agriculture, fishing, manufacturing, car industry, steel, coal, copper, tin industries gone? we cant even dredge our own beaches anymore?
the wealth gap has grown enormously too and for those who preach about treating immigrants well, are you even aware how the eu is raping the coastlines of Africa for riches whilst at the same time creating a cartel so that the Africans cant even trade over here.
everytime one wants to do anything we have to run it by 30 countries and 500 million people first? its insane, whether we stay or go it will collapse and sink like the titanic anyway.
OUT
trading partners yes, but we will make our own laws thanks
