In Reply to: Better to be little England than to be ... posted by rickmcinnis@dogwoodfabrics.com on June 24, 2016 at 06:24:25:
Scotland pays more money to Westminster than they get back.
Wales got more money from the EU than from Westminster so did my current home town of Birmingham.
Big business loves small countries as it gives them much more leverage.
Like Rupert Murdoch said when asked why he suports leave:"When I call Downing Street they do what I say but Bruxelles takes no notice."
The EU employs 50 000 bureaucrats, Westminster 440 000.
The EU parliament (the people who actually make decisions, every single one democratically elected) has 750 members, the UK House of Commons (semi-democratically elected) 650 and the completely unelected House of Lords 800.
The english have tried to eliminate welsh identity for 500 years and the scottish for 200 and failed miserably. Whining about losing their identity just shows a total lack of confidence by the english in their own culture.
