But it's all so complicated; I can't make up my mind. How can I decide?

You will indeed hear many arguments, facts and figures from the Remain and Leave sides in the referendum campaign. If you feel it is all a bit too much to take in, then look at the question in another way. If we had never joined the European Economic Community ('EEC' or Common Market) in 1973, would you now choose to join the European Union ('EU') knowing what it has become?

Ask yourself this: do you want to live in a democratic, self-governing country where the electorate can sack the government and elect a new one? Or do you prefer to live in an undemocratic, and economically declining, 'United States of Europe' (in effect, if not yet in name) where the real government (the European Commission) is not elected and cannot be sacked? Looked at this way, it is a simple choice.
