What is going on?

The Royal Mail has to be sold because the EU says so. It is being sold without any provision about the use or non use of the Queen's head on our stamps. We are spending billions a year on wind farms because the EU tells us to. We are spending millions on a palace for an EU President who, even when Van Rompuy ceases to hold this joke position, will still still be a Van Rompuy nonentity. We are spending millions on an EU foreign service for what possible benefit to those who have no interest in being represented by the EU. We are paying a huge salary to the EU foreign secretary, another joke. Soon there will be the President's yacht, the President's plane and a directive that we have to fly the EU flag from every building. Let those who are keen on the EU pay for these things. Why should the rest of us subscribe? We have neither asked nor have been asked to pay for any of these things. Why? We are not part of the Eurozone but we are having to pay for the damage the euro has caused because some piece of EU legislation that relates to the environment is being used to make us do so. Why? Why is our government not saying no? The EU parliament is toothless but even if it had teeth would it fight against this waste? Very doubtful as its whole ethos is to spend, spend, spend taxpayers' money. We need a referendum about whether or not we stay in the EU.
