Britain and Europe

There is allegedly some concern amongst British expatriates living in Spain over Britain’s possible pull-out from the European Union. I have been told that there is little danger of British citizens losing their free medical care or even the vote in council elections if Britain does elect to withdraw from the European Union. Britain has signed up to many European Treaties apart from the actual European Union and therefore our rights in Spain will remain much the same if Britain does vote “Yes” and pullout. I personally believe that Britain should stay in the European Union providing that it is reformed and some powers returned to the parliaments and governments of each member state. It seems rather illogical to me that Britain would not want to be a member of club which has all its neighbours as members. But Prime Minister David Cameron is right to hold the referendum. For too long there has been this longstanding debate over the European Union and whether Britain should be a member.
