Debate on the government EU referendum leaflet.
« on: May 11, 2016, 06:24:07 AM »
Recently I (and I suspect a number of members on here) was one of almost 220,000 people who signed an e petition to force a commons debate on the government using £9 million of taxpayers money to present a 'factual' leaflet on the benefits of remaining in the EU. Well the debate was last night and the links to the footage and transcript are here. Some of the things that have come up during the debate are to say the least, chilling.

If anyone is interested in the result here is the transcript

and if you have 3 hours spare, here is the debate in full

The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.
