Default Business chiefs warn against leaving the EU.

Surprised no-one has mentioned this yet.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22592596

......and surprised its not bigger news.

However, reading the best rated reply on the DM website, its depressing.
"The propaganda assault from those with vested interests begins. Ignore it!"

Richard Bransons only vested interest is in making a profit and creating more jobs. Good on him.

Not much to say on it really, what do expect from the beneficiaries? They get nice cheap labour, and all the regs mean it excludes smaller competitors as a barrier to entry. Why wouldn't they support it?

The whole EU thing is agenda politics at its most raw

It is being used as a "trojan horse"

People know they are getting fvcked, they just do not have the cognitive skills to articulate the real issues and cause of their "fvckedness"

Comments like those from the business men are made from the point of view of their personal profit and are meant to frighten the rest of us into following their wishes.

The real question is, is it worth surrendering our own country's sovereignty and becoming a faceless and inneffective portion of the United States of Europe unable to make our own laws as we want them to be in order to enrich the few?...certainly not us anyway!

It's profit that creates businesses that creates jobs. The only way out of this mess, is more profitable companies, that creates more jobs.

God, i despair sometimes.

You did not understand my post in the first place Paul and you ignored the second part which was infinitely more important anyway.
