Are you American? Britain is a state in its own right, moving closer to Europe is far more logical than moving closer to the USA. the benefits of being close to Europe greatly outweigh anything the USA could offer. The USA would expect the UK to be under their thumb, and offer virtually nothing in return, whereas, as a member of the EU Britain is an equal member. If Europe were to become a federation, it would be at least as strong as the USA, stronger as far as trade goes.

We are already a US state and have been since the end of ww11. Being in Europe for all the benefits economy and trade is our future Let the Americans worry over the strenght of the dollar, the Euro will eventually be a better friend.

We should certainly kick Europe in to touch and then with all our current citizens concentrate on making Britain GREAT again.

Get out of Europe yes, but as for the US, certainly not. 60 years ago we had a saying about the yanks, There are three things wrong with them, "overpaid, oversexed and over here"

Becoming a US state is advantageous because the territory becomes part of the greatest superpower but will become a target of terrorists.

At least we would be joining a democracy unlike the EU, however we can survive and prosper by ourselves and the only political party that can achieve this aim is UKIP, (United Kingdom Independence Party).
