Am I missing something have I missed a major speech from The Prime Minister to stay in...
He gave a speech on the EU yesterday in Birmingham.
Hard to find any details on the speech, but we did find out he has a house he rents out while living in No.10, he's got a savings account and doesn't own shares.
That's the British media for you.Don't blame me, I voted Remain.0 -

I listened to some of his speech so can add some details
-he didn't say whether he had benefitted from his dad's dodgy dealing in the past
-he didn't say that the young in London/SE have no hope of getting decent family sized housing without emigrating
-he didn't mention the lack of real pay rises due to increase supply of labour
-he didn't mention the declining proportion of Uk trade with the EU
-he did say that he wants to stay in the EU0 -
If anyone wants to listen to the speech and make their own minds up, it is here:

Towards a closer EU-Australia Partnership
Brussels, 22/04/2015

JOINT DECLARATION
The EU and Australia are likeminded partners on the international stage. We are committed to promoting prosperity and security in both our regions
Today, on behalf of the EU and Australia, we agreed to move our relationship to a new strategic level by officially concluding the negotiations for the EU Australia Framework Agreement. This treaty will provide a strong basis on which to further develop our cooperation on foreign and security policy,

Furthermore;
+ The UK along with the US, Canada, NZ operate the vital 5 Eyes system, which the EU depends upon
+ Locally The UK is the premier military and intelligence power and states bordering Russia very much value the UK's nuclear capability
+ We provide 40% of all EU intelligence
+ The UK tends to share intelligence on a bilateral need to know basis, nothing to do with the EU
For these and other reasons an independent Britain will continue to enjoy cross-border co-operation on intelligence and law.
It's actually incredibly infantile that Remain argues we, unique amongst independent prosperous nations would be cut-off and impotent, when there is a mass of evidence independent nations co-operate perfectly well across the globe.
Canada and Australia were key players in a recent global initiative to tackle online child abuse. They hold seats on various global environmental bodies - this idea they have no influence and are impotent is farce.0 -
After 56/57 pages we still continue to argue amongs ourselves. Where is the political leadership either way. Am I missing something have I missed a major speech from The Prime Minister to stay in or from Boris to leave. Where is the voice of our leaders? The voice of those who will lead us after the referendum.
Well big fat silence after that posting.There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.0 -

If we vote for Brexit what happens?
Fire and brimstones will be rained down upon the miscreants.
Their loins will wither and no longer produce issue
The vengeful god will cause disaster and mayhem throughout the land and cause a great plague to descend upon the country until all the unworthy have been wiped from the face of the Earth

Apologies, that was my recent talk to the Sunday school under 10s0
