:DThey're both stupid. Let's not forget that the No campaign is headed by the president of the Tax-Payers Alliance, Matthew Elliott, who probably think that the NHS is a waste of money anyway and would rather we had Pre-Obama US style healthcare.
But I REALLY don't get the top one. First of all we spend a larger proportion of our GDP on our armed forces than almost every other member of the EU (only Greece and Bulgaria spend a larger slice - Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_of_the_European_Union)
Second of all, why fight wars at all if we can't afford armour? You'd assume it's rather vital for soldiering and pretty much near the top of the checklist of 'things not to go into battle without' alongside a gun and some bullets.
