  Whatever else may be true, I'm most certainly not sitting on any fences! I would have thought it fairly clear that the EU is something I am 100% opposed to. Whilst I accept Barry has valid points about concerns of withdrawing from the EU as far as economics is concerned, my major concern is that the EU look down on this island with nothing short of contempt, and that is what really rankles. What fuels that further is when Brits won't stand up with pride in their own country - you can still be pro Europe without running old Blighty down, as you seem to take every opportunity to.
  
  Withdrawal from EU cowardly, eh? How can you possibly believe that.......? Whatever else, withdrawal from the EU would be one of the bravest decisions any Government could ever take. Great Britain would have stand up for itself in a way that just doesn't happen any more - no ready made EU trade market, no easy supply of cheap labour; goodness, businesses might actually have to fight for custom against subsidised competition - but what that would bring with it is a sense of pride in our once-great nation again. That's what backbone is, scrapping for what is best for the country and not feeding off what others think is best for us.
  
  Have pride in your own heritage.
