ON JUNE 2, I attended the meeting in the Sub Rooms in the hope of learning more about the EU.

I was very disappointed as there seemed to be no point in having four people on the panel as the two who were supposed to be in favour of remaining in the EU did a good job of making a case to come out.

Our MP Mr Carmichael did his usual trick of having a set of answers irrespective of the question.

When a question was asked of him he would come out with one of these set answers, the best of which was about Polish business and beef farming, if they are so good why are there so many Polish workers over here?

My aim was to try and find out why so many tax exiles and people with their money in tax havens want to stay in the EU as they don’t contribute to it.

So my questions are: 1. Why is it good to be in an organisation that lost £500 million in fraud last year and has never had its accounts audited?

2. Why send hundreds of millions of pounds a week to it and at the same time condemn small children and young mothers to death because we are told we cannot afford to pay their medical needs at a cost of less than 0.1 per cent of what we send to the EU every day?

On the point about wars is it not possible that a dozen or so nuclear armed submarines circling the Seven Seas, each with the capacity to annihilate any country, might be a bigger deterrent than all the nonsense coming out of the EU?
