Yeah, well I think good national health care and education would be nice. And you want 1st rate shiny new toys for the army. Try maintaining either (or both) on 33% of whatever the UK's GDP is now.

Georgia recieved $1 Billion form the US alone after the 2008 Russian war. (eugh, fox news)

It is one thing for Georgia to say: "we don't need to perform these checks or have this capability to protect our citizens or further their interests" as someone else who they feel they can trust is doing them. Whose capability would the UK rely on to ensure its citizens were adequately serviced? Would your cherished British people be happy to relinquish such oversight of their own welfare?

Isn't that the ultimate surrender of sovereignty? How can you be in favor of that as a Euro-sceptic?
