UK Can Stand Alone

Cameron is like a Yo Yo back and forth to Brussels trying to appease the EU to get a few crumbs

The UK will not fall apart if they are not in The EU

Take Switzerland although not a member of the EU, is their 4th largest Trading Partner through the Free Trade Agreement
The EU accounts for 64%of Swiss foreign trade.

Furthermore British Goods are sort after Worldwide and this will not stop if we leave the EU.

What goods are they? We don't make very much nowadays.

The UK is far too small to stand alone these days, we would be crazy to leave the EU.

I doubt you have any proof whatsoever regarding this ridiculous statement, these companies have invested billions here in their manufacturing plants which export worldwide, not just to the EU.

Your comments are just a prime example of the inane scaremongering of the sort we will have to get used to over the next few months, but I believe most sensible souls will be completely immune to it thank goodness.

It's amazing what the UK can do when it 'stands alone', it seems to bring out our spirit
