The Southern countries in the EU are economically crumbling..............it's not just Greece.............No reason to stay on a ship that is flooding when the Isle is dry.We have the same problem here......................It matters not..............the issue is should the UK rule themselves or be ruled by an EU parliament.Oops............oh well.........sue me..................LOL
And so it begins.........without the EU you are doomed...............
LOL
Same tactics as always................If the UK returns to the Pound they will have their own central bank again that will rise or fall on their on accord..................Not having to pander to the IMF and the EU for permission on their own path.....................
If the welsh are screwed.......they are screwed.........doesn't matter which central bank gets to hit the enter key for a loan to save them................Like the IMF banks really have that money to begin with............LOL
You said: "If the UK returns to the Pound". The UK has never "left" the Pound (it never switched to the Euro). The Bank of England is also the central bank of the UK. Not sure if you understand the dynamics at work.

Makes it easier to get out of the EU then.............
My point still stands that if the Welsh are screwed they are screwed either way...............the UK shouldn't let a foreign ruler decide their ways and laws.
My observation regarding the Welsh wasn't an argument for the British to stay in the EU. The op argued that billions of Euros hadn't been given to Wales. I simply pointed out that not only had billions been given to the Welsh but this massive infusion of welfare failed to produce a positive impact.
The Welsh are increasingly dependent on welfare and will continue to be irrespective of whether the UK stays in the EU or not.

The lion share of the UK economy is built around services and London's financial services is one of the largest, if not the largest in the world. The UK wants to maintain their leadership in this sector. The EU on the other hand seems intent on reducing the UK's dominance in finance. If an agreement can't be found to provide the UK greater control over its economy than I can understand a decision by the UK to leave the EU.
