As the European Union continues to assume ever greater powers over the once-sovereign nations of the region, voters in the United Kingdom have been fed up for a while. In fact, if they were allowed to vote in a referendum, polls consistently show the U.K. would overwhelmingly opt to ditch the EU once and for all.

Most people in the UK who support the EU believe in maintaining peace on the continent. So that is one reason for remaining, but economics is another, about fifty percent of the trade is done with the EU bloc.

Not until the people in those countries say we don't want this union will obivously disappear. I hope the Icelandic republic doesn't join. The EU's interest in them, is? I believe the volcano, and the Arctic resources, even if they prove to difficult to extract, which appears to be the problem. Essentially selfish interests of the Union. The Union's sphere of influence would be made bigger by them being in the EU space.

Some Icelanders want to join others have mixed views on whether they're fishing quota is slammed by the EU, but then again over fishing could deplete the stock. If I remember plenty of fish caught was thrown back into the sea because of...I don't remember the reason.

The problem is although I hate the EU when it dissolves the wars will start again.The only thing that stops European countries today to put protectionists taxes on imports is the EU.

If the EU dissolves the laws would pass and as every other time in history when peaceful trade is stopped wars will start to conquer markets.This is the only reason why there is still people who support the EU.

This times in history are sad times for the people of Europe.The people are weak,everyone thinks someone owes him something and most importantly the nations are seen as weak by the world .And the truth is they are.
