@Lostit . every one has there own opinion. if we are not locked in to anything, why do we need the negotiations to break away? the agreement that is on the table is so far the best that can be done for the moment.

Who got us into this fine mess? The racists who voted out, that's who! I voted against entering the EC back in the 70's but accepted the fact that now we are in, let's make the most of it. I'm standing by for lot's of abuse now.
