Hang on, you said the EU does not impose austerity, but now you're saying it imposed them ONLY on Eurozone members...so you've proved my point. The EU does and can impose austerity on member states within the Eurozone.
My viewpoint did not focus on austerity being imposed on US by the EU. I'm discussing the EU as a political organisation, not our own personal relationship with it. I look at how the EU treats it's OTHER member states, not just ourselves and my vote was in reflection of that. It wasn't solely a selfish UK one. The other points about Common Fisheries Policy, membership fee, etc, THEY are imposed, but I never stated austerity measures were; only that they were on other EU members, something you denied was true but have now agreed upon.
We did not decide, the elected Government made a decision on our behalf without then offering the public a referendum on the decision to do so as they did in 1975. I do hope then, that you aren't like other remainers who claim that "the referendum called upon by the elected PM who stated in his Governments manifesto that a vote for the Conservatives meant a vote on a referendum about membership of the EU", which won the election, was 'wrong' or should never have been called, because your own statements allude to that fact (as do mine) that the referendum should have been called, and that you inform other remainers on this forum of this fact.
