Or is the lack of information a ploy to get us to vote to stay in, purely based on ignorance.  I heard a discussion last week about the importance of our NATO membership versus EU.  As a lot of our politicians of all persuasions seem unable to treat the voters will any degree of intelligence, they will just assume that we won't analyse the pro's and con's.  If these politicians really put their minds to it, we could make a go of being outside the EU, but it would take many years of hard work to re-establish our standing in the world.  Then we could once again enjoy things like New Zealand Braeburn apples, not the second-rate ones from Spain, Germany, France and Poland that I found in my local supermarket this morning!

I'm new to this forum so catching up on all the threads.  This is one of many that will cause me to rant.  Having worked closely with the military for the past 11 years (until I was made redundant end 2015), I have a different perspective on how they are treated.  

Everyone committing acts of vandalism such as this and assaulting veterans should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves!  Instead of The Gurkhas cleaning up for the Queen, get these disrespectful idiots out on the streets and show them the meaning of respect.  Don't suggest putting them in the Army by way of national service, they are not wanted.
