Questions
Q1 - Neil Sherman
When the Leave Campaign claim that Turkey, Montenegro, Macedonia, Albania and Serbia are all set to join the EU, meaning that an additional 90 million people will be able to work and live in the UK, even though they know that all current member states have an absolute veto on EU membership applications, are they being deliberately misleading?
Q2 - Nigel Taylor
With the UK receiving 40% of all Foreign Direct Investment in Europe, how will the Leave campaign maintain this level of investment when we’re going to be outside Europe? If the answer is they can’t, how will they replace this lost business?
Q3 - Norman Stevenson
I believe that if we come out of the EU, the whole organisation may eventually disintegrate. My concern for future generations is that this could lead to conflicts throughout Europe as we have seen regrettably in the past, thankfully not for many years. Do the panel agree?
Q4 - Jim Boff
What excuse for incompetence will UK politicians and bureaucrats reach for if they can no longer blame the EU?
