EU referendum

[bluemoon32]

I'm just reading the leaflet. I have felt really torn by this and really want to make the right decision, if we get this wrong the reverberations might last generations. Is how I feel. I am just not 100% either way.

Don't stress it, the reality of politics is this country is that no matter who gets elected, what gets voted on or what party is in power, very very little will change for the vast majority of people in this country in their day to day lives.

Why do you presume the non-voters don't support the EU?

Why did you presume they did when claiming "Only a 32%" turnout somehow made the vote invalid ?, the simple fact is they did not vote FOR the EU and so the vote represents the will of the Dutch people.

Actually it represents the confirmed will of 19.5% of the emancipated dutch people, could have been more could have been less.

Is there anywhere that I can get hold of an impartial opinion on this without having to rely solely on making my decision based on the respective campaigns?

No everyone has a vested interest

As you know me well enough to trust me; just vote for the brexit we will never get another chance.

Ha ha - can't get any more impartial than that!

I have been angling towards the Brexit as I don't think it will be quite the economic disaster that some are predicting. Will still be doing some more research ahead of the vote though

While this is generally true I think this is one vote that this sentiment doesn't apply. This vote ( if its an out vote ) will have a major impact.

Majority of people I know are voting out. Going to be very close I think come June. Being in charge of our own country and not under the influence of any other country is what I like the sound of.

I didn't. I presumed that the 68% that didn't vote couldn't be arsed either way. If roughly two thirds of the Dutch didn't bother voting then the referendum is hardly the 'will of the people' is it?

if nothing else after all these years in i think being out will give some perspective on our country.

if as some have suggested it will be bad for Europe at some point in the future we would be welcomed back with open arms, anyone around your age have never known anything other than being in europe and this isn't what we originally signed up for

we have been conned once before by our politicians regarding europe don't fall for it again by voting to stay in
