    Default A bit biased?

    A YouGov report states "52% of Germans say EU is better off with UK as a member, but 37% of French think EU better off without Britain"

    Am I wrong thinking that report is a little bit biased as 63% of the French must think the EU is better with Britain as a member

    Hopefully all going well it wont affect us up here in Scotland as the majority of Scots don't have a problem with the EU to be honest...and the referendum on the EU is after the referendum in Scotland.

    So we will just need to wait.

    Nobody cares what the French think, and the Germans want us in as the EU is their way of dominating Europe without having to try and win a war.

    But what do the British think?

    The governments of both will want Britain in the EU. We are still a major economy (just!) and for many companies provide a gateway to other markets.

    Personally I don't care one way or the other if we are in or out, I would just like to see it going back to what it was meant to be originally, a trading block, and for that you do not need all the interfering in national laws, an army, an anthem, or billions spending on running the circus. I think that we could still do well enough by spending what we spend on the EU building on our ties with America, the former Commonwealth and the emerging markets.

    Yes, you are wrong. That figure includes those who think it is better, who don't care or who don't know.
