so where does that leave us if the owners of the rest of the banks, power and utility companies decide to pull the plug?
personally i think Cameron is doing the wrong thing. you either join a club or not. i'm sick of hearing ''in Britain's best interests'' what Britain!!!

Phew someone who speaks for the other side and who can explain things in a sensible way.
It scares me stiff that Dave has alientated us from the countries that we need to support our means of wealth production. Although a leftie I never did agree with Brown's decisions as PM although he did show a lot of prudent sense as Chancellor.
Too many people get too uptight about losing the British way of life, when in fact we have been one of the most multicultural states in the last 400 years or so. And that has contributed to some of our status and position in the world.
We need Euroland to be stable and productive and for them to be our friend. Our investments, banking and development relies on it. I can see how the lure of 'we're free from stupid EU red tape@ is a calling card to many, but this goes much further than that.
If we're not part of the EU gang, whose gang are we in, because we are a very small country on our own
