Rejoining the EU won’t stop illegal migration to the UK - Yorkshire Post Letters

From: Jarvis Browning, Fadmoor, York.

The PM's insistence on wanting to rejoin the EU, will not stop the illegal migrants.

Independence of our steel works would be shut down due to EU rules on grants and subsidies as it would be an unfair competition to their steel productions and other businesses.

A single united armed forces is what he is looking for too, that would be a total disaster for our sovereignty of overseas territories and our own crown and independence.

Lastly, where is the money coming from to pay for all of the re-entry, we left for those very reasons, our forefathers fought to save us from the tyrants of the Europe of the past, which might happen again, heavens forbid.

We must stand up for our sovereignty and independence, after all we are an Island Nation surrounded by sea (apart from the Channel Tunnel).

We can be open minded and deal independently from bureaucratic European rules and laws of the EU. Don’t forget we’ve had our own parliament for over 800 years now, what country in the world can match that? That is what we need to build on and hold tight for our rights.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
