FROM 1914-1918 we fought off Germany and stopped them taking control of Great Britain.

The cost: approximately 800,000 lives. From 1939-1945 we fought off Germany and stopped them taking control of Great Britain.

The cost: approximately 400,000 lives. From 2016-2017 should we pay Germany and her allies £55million per day to control GB?

The cost: approximately £20billion per year, our loss of sovereignty, pride and loyalty in our country and to be subservient to the EU obeying their laws at all time. But no more lives lost?

In a referendum the decision is yours, not the politicians nor the rich and powerful with their millions.

I believe that was one of the main reasons the Conservatives won the last election. For the sake of our children and grandchildren, we must think very carefully. If we vote to withdraw from the EU the pro-Europeans will call for another referendum within five years.

If we vote to stay in the EU it will be permanent – no second chance.
