BREXIT DEBATE - Eddie Izzard v Daniel Hannan

BREXIT DEBATE - Eddie Izzard v Daniel Hannan


This is a bit of an odd debate just because Eddie Izzard is in it dressed in his pink hat and lipstick. However he makes his points loud and clear for the Stand Up for Europe campaign and opposing him is the well known MEP and Eurosceptic Daniel Hannan.

It's a pretty good debate to watch.



What do you think about the debate did Eddie or Daniel make you change your mind about the vote to stay in the EU?

Have your say with the poll at the top.

Daniel Hannan Invites You To Make Him Redundant

Daniel Hannan Invites You To Make Him Redundant

Euro MP, Daniel Hannan, invites you to make him jobless by voting to leave the EU. As he says in his speech the only two areas in the world without growth have been Antarctica and the EU

How is it this is not mentioned more than it is when people talk about trade and GDP

Also what about the amount of money we have given the EU over the years of austerity. As he points out the money we have given Europe would have negated the whole austerity program making it totally unneccessary.

However the most important point is that the EU is undemocratic and we cannot unelect the people making our laws. Do you feel that this is an important part of a nation state, being able to kick out the people who decide how your taxes are spent?

The blurb on the video says: 



In just 400 seconds Dan dismantles 40 years of EU inefficiency, corruption and down right un-democratic structure. This opening speech by Dan was part of a debate entitled 'Should Britain Leave the EU?' 


 


Did you like Daniel's speech, did it make you think that a BREXIT wouldn't be so bad after all?

Don't forget to vote!

Hillary Benn on why we should vote to remain in the EU

Hillary Benn on why we should vote to remain in the EU


The Labour MP, Hilary Benn, gives an interview on his support for staying in EU, totally against his fathers opinions which you can view here by clicking this link for an interview with Tony Benn.

The video calls it a car crash interview due to his stumbling across topics such as:

  1. The UK cannot stop EU immigrants while in EU. 
  2. Our housing problem. 
  3. Labour's support for TTIP which will allow American corporations to buy up our remaining national industries and even sue us if we introduce laws which will cost them profits.



Do you think this is a car crash interview?

Does the thought of US global corporations buying up the UK and suing us for costing them profits scare you?

If it does would being inside the EU with a threat of the French vetoing the whole TTIP treaty which has been negotiated on an EU level make you feel safer than being at the mercy of Blairites and Tories who would undoubtedly sign us up for TTIP as soon as they can if we left?

The Great Intelligence Squared Brexit Debate

The Great Intelligence Squared Brexit Debate


This is debate between pro-remain campaigner Nick Clegg who has actually worked in Europe and a Labour MP, Gisela Stuart who heads up the Vote Leave campaign. The debate also contained 3 special experts on the economy, law and immigration plus a "Fact Checker", who is on hand to call out any BS arguments made by the panel.

The blurb on the video says:

In this major debate, we hosted former deputy prime minister Nick Clegg, who has long supported further European integration. Against him was Gisela Stuart, the Labour MP and chair of Vote Leave. No ‘little Englander’, she argued that BREXIT is the progressive choice. But this was a debate with a difference. As well as our two main advocates, there were three special experts – who shared the findings of their research on the economy, law and immigration.
In addition, there was a professional fact checker from Full Fact, an independent factchecking charity, who was on hand to resolve any disputed claim at the click of a button.


Did you find having a "Fact Checker" on hand during the debate helpful to clear up any bad arguments made by Nick or Gisela?

Are you going to cast your vote based on facts or emotions?

Would you consider yourself a little Englander for wanting to vote leave and if you want to stay does that mean you are 100% behind a Federal Europe or do you think it can be reformed from within so late in the day?

Nigel Farage on Immigration post BREXIT

Nigel Farage on Immigration post BREXIT


Nigel Farage, Euro MP and head of UKIP, gives a speech about UK immigration policy in a post BREXIT world.

Is immigration the major factor for your vote or is it economics, workers rights or security?

With a city the size of Liverpool being required to house the 300,000 new migrants that enter the country each year, and our government woefully slack at any kind of major house building, it seems that if we want affordable housing we have to hope George Osborne is right when he says that house prices will fall if we leave the EU.


Do you find UKIPs arguments persuasive or do you think migration is unimportant when it comes to the EU referendum?

Was this the most clear and honest interview about the EU and has it helped you decide on your vote?

Should Britain Leave The EU - Debate

Should Britain Leave The EU - Debate

This is the Spectator debate on whether or not Britain should leave the EU.

The debate is chaired by Andrew Neil and the panellists are split into two groups.

People persuading us for a BREXIT:

  • Dan Hannan
  • Nigel Farage
  • Kate Hoey

And the Better Together group who want us to remain in the EU:

  • Nick Clegg
  • Liz Kendall
  • Chuka Umunna
The question I want to know is where is David Cameron?

Surely as the Prime Minister of the UK and the person who has set up the referendum as well as the person who thought his "new deal" with the EU would prevent us from leaving. Surely he should be centre stage making the argument for us to stay and telling us how his "deal" will change our minds?



What do you think of the debate. Has it changed your point of view on whether to vote to leave the EU or to stay in?

Remember to vote at the top of the page!

Nigel Farage debating Nick Clegg at the Oxford Union over leaving the EU

Nigel Farage debating Nick Clegg at the Oxford Union over leaving the EU

This is part of a debate that took place at the Oxford Union over whether Britain should leave the EU.

There were many more participants than the two videos I have shown here but these are two of the more well known voices from either side of the BREXIT debate.

Watch Nigel Farage leader of UKIP discuss his reasons why the UK should leave the EU at the Oxford Union.



Watch Nick Clegg lay out his reasons in the same debate why Britain is better together with the EU.



Both Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage have worked at the EU either as MEP's.

They will take huge pensions when they retire long before us and whilst working at the EU they would have had big expense accounts to fund their job, hire help and so on.

This is one reason many people dislike the EU because of the amount of money wasted on MEP's and their allowances. Also its payments have been consistently found subject to significant error for the past 18 years.

Which argument did you find more convincing, Nick Cleggs or Nigel Farages?

Does the threat of Scotland and maybe Wales leaving the UK if we pull out of the EU make you want to vote for staying in the EU or do you think they have the right to independence anyway?

Will you vote with objectivity or use logic and facts when making your decision. This will affect you and your children for decades to come so I hope it's the latter!

BREXIT - The Day After

BREXIT - The Day After

This video discusses the "day after BREXIT", for the English.

Would the City of London still be the Financial Centre of the world, would the EU then integrate further, would the British economy suffer?

It looks at trade, prices, politics, jobs and the daily life on both sides of the channel?

One commentator says "it's one of the most stupid decisions of the 21st century", and bad news for the English and the European continent.

The panel is made up of a pro leave campaigner, a German politician and someone in the centre.



A balanced discussion on the EU referendum and the possible ramifications of leaving the EU?
