    Is it time to leave the EU?

    We have nothing more to gain, so should we leave

    Is it time for Dublin to leave Ireland? We have nothing more to gain, so we should leave.

    This site has nothing more to gain by your presence, so should you leave?

    No I don't think so. Fight for change from within. There are advantages to EU membership and it provides a convenient forum for cooperation between nation states.

    Your question assumes a certain inherent value to 'Ireland' that I do not agree with.

    They are exactly the same questions; should a smaller element leave a larger whole because of narrow self-interest.

    Those videos are the best criticisms of the Union you can come up with?
