LETTER: Crazy to stay in EU

We must be crazy to vote to stay in the EU. £350m a week we pay to belong to this circus – the people we elect do not have a proper say in how this amount is spent. The unelected comedians squander our money.

We have everybody here calling out for more money, NHS, police, education, care of the elderly and child care, filling pot holes and better roads.

Why can’t we afford the necessities for people in our own country? Because of some of the silly rules and regulations coming from the EU, creating layers of bureaucracy causing needless expense to our businesses and the endless waste we read about daily.

For the past 10+ years the auditors of the EU have not signed off the annual accounts. Could the reason be that they don’t balance?

When we have our backs against the wall we respond like we have in the past.

Voting to come out will give us the UK back.

I am not anti-European, just anti EU.
