So yes, independence eventually will put more control in the hands of the tax-paying citizen, but there would be a major adjustment period I think... anyway, as a voter I would've never thought it would just be clean, cut and dry... seems natural that in order to move towards true independence, there would have to be some sacrifices made in order to achieve that goal in the long-term. The question is, are people willing to make that sacrifice?... and she seems to think she can speak for all folk here, which seems a bit silly since there was a campaign for/against it and millions decided to still quit the EU despite opposition.
That's why it's big business that is trying to over turn the result. I've never seen such blatant attempts to over turn democracy.

We go through a transition period after leaving the EU, which should be plenty time to set up alternative trade deals, and if it isn't, then the government aren't doing their job.
