For those who have a vote, I believe the question will be Leave or Stay?

Leave?
6 (13.6%)
Stay?
38 (86.4%)

Total Members Voted: 44

No wides

Now the deal has been done, for those who have a vote will you vote to leave or to stay?

No wides

Five tory cabinet minsters on the leave campaign

Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith
Commons Leader Chris Grayling
Culture Secretary John Whittingdale
Northern Ireland Secretary Theresa Villiers
Justice Secretary Michael Gove

Pity Villiers wouldn't leave as Northern Ireland Secretary!!

Definitely stay.We rely heavily on European funding and I trust neither the London or Dublin governments with any aspect of looking after us.

Do you think Europe will look after us any better?

Yeah and it has been worthwhile, the only ones to benefit from it are friends and family members of SF & DUP

If Brexit fails, she won't be too popular with the boss, although I suppose NI is the worst job he can give her.
If Brexit succeeds no doubt she will move on to greater things..
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

That's a large part of the problem. A culture of expectation and entitlement.

Without ever having the need to be self reliant, why would the free loaders bother their arse getting off their hole.

Well you dont look a gift horse in the mouth do you? The 26 counties has benefitted even more from EU handouts not to mention bailouts.

Villiers must Be fairly hard core.  Poor NI. I suppose the unionists are all for leaving. They Never Pay for anything.

T Fearon

Unionists are divided.Little Englanders and Ulsterers like Allister are all for an exit but I would expect a substantial majority vote to stay from the North as all of the nationalist community and a sizeable number of unionists feel this way.

Mike TV in a bit of a bind.
A lot of farmers in the ulster unionists ranks.
They will be looking to stay in but the fleggers in his party will be looking to leave.
Dup have confirmed they will be supporting the leave campaign.
Mike may have to stay on the fence.
Wanted.  Forwards to take frees.
Not fussy.  Any sort of ability will be considered

Bail out money has to be paid back with interest.

Our hand outs came at a price for fishing rights! And the bailout was really a loan! So there is no such thing as a free meal!
