The United Kingdom is now debating about whether the country should remain in the European Union or leave for good. This once in a lifetime opportunity for the British people has aroused great debate on the benefits of remaining in an ever increasing political union, or to leave and retain Britain's sovereignty. 


If remaining in the European Union is neccessary then why are so many prominent businesses like the Prudential and others are professing to leave the EU. We've heard the argument that 3 million jobs depend on the EU. This isn't true because if the UK leaves the EU those jobs would still be retained. Why? Because trade is borderless.


Let's see the world before the EU.

Why did the Ford motorcar manufacturer end-up building their motorcar manufacturing factory at Dagenham just outside of London?
Well, to avoid importation tariffs.

This also happened between the UK and European countries before the European Economic Community (EEC) was founded, which paved the way for import-export tariffs to either be lowered or abolished. 

Now that tariffs are abolished within the EU this is leading to companies abandoning their home nations and markets to set-up factories and service headquarters in the cheapest and weakest countries in the EU. Thus making countries like the UK actually losing jobs and wealth in this process, which is creating the problems we see in the UK and European countries.


We've seen Greece not having strong institutions in collecting taxes while the Greek Government borrowed vast amounts of money to keep public services at unstainable levels, while private individual Greek borrowing lead to an inflated boom in buying German cars and other luxuries from the richer EU nations. So, Germany won - through their car manufacturing and the Greeks lost by their unstainable levels of debt.  

If we top that with the ill-fated Euro currency we also see the unbalancing within the Eurozone of Germany winning by being the Eurozone's banker in Frankfurt and issuing a one-size-fits-all interest rate for Eurozone countries, that doesn't benefit or cause growth for any other country in the Eurozone apart from Germany. 

Coming-back full circle it is now more clear than ever that mixing a political union into the mix is just as insane as the invention of the Euro currency. Putting every twenty eight nations together to be ruled by the Euro-Technocrats that just wants to lump every nation together and strip its unique cultural identity and history from the face of the earth is utter lunacy. Or is it a way of Germany dominating Europe like Adolf Hitler said after he knew that military force wasn't going to conquer Europe for the Fatherland. 

The UK has been shackled for far-too-long, which has suffered the UK's union and sovereign freedom with The Commonwealth and trade with nations like the United States of America, which the UK does more trade with the US than any other nation in the world. 

The US isn't in the EU but has a seat in the EU parliament and rightly so, due to the debt of gratitude in helping to free Europe of Nazism. Not to mention the only other country that stood against Germany, the United Kingdom. 

So by virtue and gratitude the UK should like the US have an honorary seat in the EU parliament and institutions as a 'thank you' for the liberation of Europe during WWII.
