On 23 June, there will be a vote to decide whether the UK should remain a member of the European Union, or leave and take back control. It’s a big decision – and there may not be another chance to vote for years. Here are the facts:

More than a quarter of a million people came to the UK from the EU in the 12 months to September 2015 – the equivalent of a city the size of Plymouth or Newcastle in a year. If this rate continues for a decade, there will be more than two million extra people. EU law means all members must accept 'free movement of people'. Many immigrants contribute to our society. They also affect public services. Experts disagree on the overall effect.

The EU is growing. When we joined, there were just 9 member states. Now there are 28, the most recent being Romania, Bulgaria and Croatia. Five more countries are being considered for membership: Albania, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Turkey. When they join, they will have the same rights as other member states.

The UK's official EU budget is about £350 million a week. That’s about the same as the cost of building a new NHS hospital every week. We get less than half of this money back, and we have no control over how it’s spent – that’s decided by politicians and officials in Brussels, not the people we elect here.

Leave NOW. The fear mongers and self serving MP's forget that the British people can think. We have a huge trade deficit with the EU which they realise would give the UK the leverage when it comes to getting to the trading deals. As they have more to lose. Germany and France already have problems. Which is why they want to trap the UK in a customs deal, to subsidise them and the other EU countries.

Democracy is dead. If the result is altered then we will be in a dictatorship May new what she was doing when she signed that document, she must like being told what to do by that drunken unelected dictator. If we have a second vote then we must have a third and only those who were eligible to vote the first time should be allowed to vote the next time.
