10 points to consider about Brexit and the EU Referendum 1. We’ll have control over our own laws. No. We won’t, we will still need to harmonise with Europe. The only difference between now and then is that at the moment we get to influence those laws. If we leave we just have to adopt them (See Norway). 2. British courts can make the final decision. More complex this one but, in short, no. They can’t. At least not any more than now. The European Court of Human Rights (the Daily Mule’s biggest enemy) has nothing to do with the EU. The European Court of Justice is the final arbiter of EU law (not national law)… see point 1. 3. We can control our own borders. Er… We already do. You remember that passport thing you have to show the man? 4. We can control immigration. In theory, yes, we could. We could pull up the drawbridge and fill in the tunnel too. But it won’t happen because we lose more than we gain. 5. Staying in makes terrorism more likely. One of the more facile claims, this is so brilliantly stupid that it is almost genius. Staying in the EU makes us a hotbed for terrorism whilst leaving means we’re all safe. There you have it! The only problem is, it’s not true. First of all, see point 4 above. Then consider that terrorists are just like multi-nationals – they don’t respect national borders, they don’t play fair and they don’t care about you. 6. We’ll renegotiate free trade deals to replace the EU. We won’t. Certainly not quickly at least. We’ll trade with the EU as a member of the EEA so we get pretty much the same as now but we lose the power to influence any future changes. Again, see Norway. And the US has already made it clear it has no interest in a FTA with a newly isolated and rapidly sinking UK. But if you believe we can do instant deals why don’t you start with Scotland. As it will undoubtedly leave if the UK leaves the EU. As eventually will Northern Ireland. And then Wales… starting to feel like the ugly kid at the school disco yet? 7. We’ll be strutting our stuff as world power again. Newsflash! The UK is a world power. It has a seat on the UN Security Council. It punches enormously above its weight on the international stage. This is in part because of its connectedness to Europe and its power within the EU. Leave and what are you left with? There is momentum building to review the UNSC membership, what do you think are the odds that an isolated UK will still be there? 8. The economy will thrive if we’re outside the EU. Seriously? It’s not even worth bothering trying to answer this one! The statement is just so blatantly devoid of logic. We’re not Norway. we sold off most of the family silver years ago. And what’s left is rapidly being outsourced and sold off too. And that great shining generator of wealth (for a small few), the financial sector? That will move to Frankfurt, did you ever see a bank with loyalty? (OK, I accept that this could be seen as a plus). In short, if we leave, we get to live through a fire sale at the sunset of a once great economic and political power. 9. The EU is incompetent, badly run and a drain on resources. Yes. It is. It is beyond incompetent in many cases. But we’re stuck with it one way or the other – leaving does not change that. It might be hard to change it but at least it’s possible from the inside (now more than ever). What can we do from outside? It’s also worth pondering that many of the problems with supposed-EU dictates lie in the local implementation (remember, it was the UK’s fault it didn’t impose the moratorium in immigration in 2004, as Germany and others did). 10. What’s it ever done for us anyway? Nothing much. Other than working time directives and other ways that protect your rights at work, protect your children. Then there’s consumer protection and European peace. Not to mention the wholesale transition of Eastern Europe from volatile authoritarian states into thriving democracies. Maybe you don’t care about any of those things. But you should. http://www.andywilliamson.com/10-points-to-consider-about-brexit-and-the-eu-referendum/

Concerns are raised about the number of records being obtained and kept by the automatic number plate recognition system. The massive scale of surveillance cameras on the UK's roads has been revealed in new figures obtained by Sky News. Automatic number plate recognition - or ANPR - technology uses cameras to scan number plates and log car journeys. Whenever a car passes a camera, its registration is scanned and added to a central database, accessible by police forces. For one week in October last year, it took roughly 34 million images each day. They were added to a database that now contains at least 22 billion records. All records are kept for two years. Police are checking that database more and more. In 2014, they made 300,758 searches in this database – up from 194,317 in 2012. The Information Commissioner's Office has raised concerns over these new figures. Jonathan Bamford, head of steric liaison at the ICO, told Sky News: "You've really got to ask the question about the extent of ANPR and the amount of records that it's collecting. "There are a lot of people going around on their ordinary day to day business doing nothing wrong, innocent individuals - those are being acquired at the rate of 30 million or so a day and being retained for a number of years. "You end up with a picture where there's not a lot of our lives taking place which the state can't gain access to in some ways. So it's very, very important that there's a proper public policy debate about the extent of surveillance in the United Kingdom." ANPR was originally introduced in Northern Ireland for counter terrorism operations. A national system was introduced in March 2006. Since then, the number of records has swelled, from 35 million records in 2006, to 7.6 billion records in 2010, to more than 22 billion in 2015. The national ANPR network now receives data from 9,000 roadside cameras. These new figures, obtained under freedom of information laws, were only released by the Home Office under the threat of legal action. The Home Office also refused Sky News's requests for an interview. Instead, they gave this statement: "The Automatic Number Plate Recognition system is a valuable source of intelligence and evidence for police in the prevention and detection of crime. "Its use is subject to strict safeguards in the Data Protection Act, as well as the Surveillance Camera Code of Practice." http://news.sky.com/story/1701079/huge-scale-of-road-camera-surveillance-revealed

http://infacts.org/uk-doesnt-send-eu-350m-a-week-or-55m-a-day/ 'In 2015, Britain actually sent £250 million a week to the EU. After accounting for the money the Brussels sent back to Britain and EU spending we include in our foreign aid target, the net cost was £120 million a week or £17 million a day. Per person, that’s 26p a day – or half the price of a Mars bar. This is a fraction of the benefits we have got from being part of the EU’s single market. And remember that if we wanted to leave the EU but stay in the single market, like Norway, we’d most likely still have to pay a membership fee. Norway’s net payment per person is about the same as ours.'
