I don't want to let this government off the leash Dezzy but, and this comes out of huge amounts of reading on both sides of the TTIP deal, if we allow TTIP to go ahead then the 'neo-liberal bsatards' have won, the rich become gloriously richer and the middle and working class citizens get sucked into one big pool of poverty. TTIP treaties can and will change laws and that includes human rights and the only way it can continue to pave the way is to remain in the EU.

Neo-liberal conservatism is being exposed for what it really is. People are waking up and I doubt a conservative government (unless it goes back to classical conservatism) will be voted in next time round, especially if our present government attempt to change The Human Rights Act.

I've very seriously weighed up the two and although it feels like 'damned if you do and damned if you don't', I firmly believe the out vote may work more reliably in our favour when it comes to our human rights.

The biggest reason for me voting out is because I'm passionate about our human rights.
