A referendum wording to satisfy the hard-liners

There was an article on the News Thump website a couple of years ago which seems quite timely now: "Farage demands 'Yes we leave' or 'No we don't stay in' EU referendum."

You can never please everyone ...

Lol.


Though there is slight problem with the wording, "Should the United Kingdon remain a member of the European Union?"

What is "Yes" - you see to remain a member, well that means to stay in the EU as it is now, it makes no mention of a reformed EU. Does it mean adopt the Euro? after all that is one of the flagship policies of the EU, as it is now.

just as the No side need to be perfectly clear that No means a UK that is self governed, but retains the single market and a trading relationship with Europe,

I think the Yes side need to be perfectly clear that "Yes" means accepting government from the political EU in Brussels.

Also the inclusion in the bill to exclude the 28 day Purdah period is rather underhanded
