Got as far as the first (and according to him his most important) argument 'Britain should retain it's souvereignity' and switched it off. Yes, Brits, you have it right; this whole EU thing is a carefully designed plot by a German-French alliance, we're coming to take away your queen and tell you that increasing the price of a pack of cigarettes might just be a good idea.
By god! To the beaches! They will never take us alive! Idiots
You know what, I say go on and leave the EU, you guys are nothing but trouble - blocking proposals at every turn just to be able to sell this shit to your own misguided, uninformed tabloid reading voters who appear to think the EU is some sort of hostile takeover. Maybe it's time you guys stand in the corner for a while like a naughty kid in class, see how we cope and how you cope. Good luck renegotiating all those trade agreements, finding cheap labour without all those Poles and say bye bye to London's status as financial capital of the EU in the meantime.

I got about a minute further in the video and by that time he blamed cheap immigrant workers for unemployment and "having to apply for 500 jobs before getting employed for one".
Yeah, totally Europe's fault. I wonder who this man is going to blame for the same problems once Britain has left the EU.

I'm sure your decades of experience of being a low-skilled worker in Britain and unable to find a job, whilst being kicked off benefits for not working for peanuts, is a silver bullet to the heart of his concerns.
That's not what I'm saying.
What I am saying is that he's wrong to put the blame to Europe.

Da man actually has a very good point at the end though, where he says the the decisions shouldn't be just for the Business but the individual. Which makes his immigration point relevant.

Told you fuckface.
On his other point (job loss), I blame the Tory spending cuts but I think Europe take the same stance.
The sovereignty arguement ?, well is he not alluding to Britain being unable to make its own decisions such as those on border control ?, what's wrong with that ?. It kinda ties in with his whole arguement and does make it the crux.

Depends how far Wales get. If this carries on I'm going to France.
We'll leave it to the Scots to keep us in Europe

Where are you getting this?! An EU army, to be let loose upon it's own members? What the flying fuck?
Did you find this on reddit?

There's never gonna be an EU army. Not one Britain is a part of anyway, not beyond the common defence treaty anyway.
And it already is, it's in London, thank fuck some of it is in Brussels.

Here's the thing, beyond the 3 founding principles of the EU (one of them is being free movement) the EU tends to follow our political landscape because our leaders allow it. Let's take TTIP for instance, we had veto power to fuck it off all together, leaving the EU to renegotiate with the member states that had agreed. What happened instead ?, Tory backbenchers used it for nothing more than to embarrass David Cameron with, by forcing him to make alterations to the Queens speech in protecting the NHS (fucking lol)
We would still know who to kick, it's Britains biggest spokesman for TTIP, Mr Piggy Fucker himself.
Also Britain still retains sovereignty, it can do what it likes, all it would do is cause a political issue. It wouldn't be legal.

We need to get our house in order before we can start telling people how to run theirs. If a political change miraculousy sweeps across Britain, and the EU blocks one of our proposals, then we can talk about leaving.

EU member states are already doing so much military things together that I guess it's only a small step to formalize the idea and go with it.

Could you imagine David trying to disband the Royal Welsh ?.
Could be good, due a revolt. After Englands disarmed of course, just like old times
