Yes the points raised in this video are true Norway didn't go bust, but its important to understand why Norway was still able to thrive outside the EU.

First, they negotiated a deal with the EU where they had to obey by EU Laws and don't have a say on those EU laws because they are not at the EU table to decide these laws. This would affect Britain because although 72 laws that Britain voted on as Brexit would point out didn't get passed by the EU, Britain is actually on the winning side of law making within the EU 80% of the time.

Secondly, Norway still has to pay a membership to the EU, if this was the case for any kind of Brexit deal then we wouldn't be getting £10 billion back to spend on the NHS etc which is the wrong figure anyway its much less than that if you include the rebate as we would still be paying a membership fee and even worse we wouldn't be getting that money we give the EU reinvested into EU projects within the UK.

Thirdly, Norway has agreed to freedom of movement which defeats the Brexit no1 argument that the UK would have more control over our boarders if we had a Norway type deal we would have Less control over our boarders as Norway has higher immigration per head than the UK.

I certainly am, and in all honesty I have'nt really noticed any difference in the way I lived then to the way I live now. We certainly did'nt have any big banks on the verge of going out of businees back then, and we all seemed to survive perfectly well. I doubt if most of us will notice any huge differences to our lifestyles one way or the other.

Not sure what you mean! but I certainly don't see anything positive since we joined ? Life was ok before the EU and suspect it would be ok outside despite the profit of doom that is camaron! :thumbup:
