In response to any who've said we're not hearing enough positive non-reactive reasons to stay in the EU, let me try and explain the reasons I'll be voting to stay in.

It's worth remembering that defending the status quo is always going to be harder than offering a bright new tomorrow. The Brexit campaign have had that advantage, they suggest that they will spend money available if we leave, on the NHS. This forgets of course all the money we have coming in from the EU, it's a two way process. The fact too that the NHS is being used in this way is for me is one of the most distasteful parts of the Brexit campaign. These are the very Tories who have seen NHS struggle with the now debt it has. That our NHS is poorly funded is down to the present government not the EU. Other European countries spend a higher percentage on health, it's not dictated by the EU:http://www.kingsfund.org.uk/projects/nhs-in-a-nutshell/health-care-spending-compared
I'm not saying I am totally happy with the EU, for sure there are things I'd change if I was in charge. But let's stay within, work together around the table and make the most of the strengths that we have.
