The City expressed significant alarm when the EU first mentioned a trading tax, something that the UK has managed to beat off for now, but it will come back - Thats one very good reason not to be within Europe

On the other side, we have completely free trade with european countries. So no import/export quotas - that sort of thing can have a huge effect on business. Businesses my well be forced to move out of european cities meaning our products are not being marketed with the same prominence and vigour.

The list goes on - there are huge consequences to business but lets not forget rural communities, farmers and the like who rely on europe.

I would really like to see some serious attempt at stacking up the pros and cons of the EU - none of our politicians have come close to attempting it yet.
