ahh the old straw man argument, youre arguing against opinions which don't exist
no one says there wull be no big repercussions, there will be, there will also be big rewards
the eu would have some influence but not as much, wed have british laws and wed abide by them, british tariffs, british benefits, british bills , british firms allowed to fight for better energy deals, form our own indepdent industrial laws and masterplan....in time we could afford to dig coal if needed or slate or make steel too. To form our own trade deals, to recruit whatever medical staff we like anywhere in the world...to tighten border controls.to form as many cross nation agreement as we like
the eu will be much much weaker without us and others will follow us and the swiss and Norwegians and many more
the EU will fail regardless.....if we leave down we will simply suffer less damage than other nations
cross eu agreements can always be made, we can all be friends
the eu was meant to remove stupid red tape to make trade easier...its done the opposite, deliberately....so as to make it a closed shop for massive corporations
it cannot be reformed from within, that's impossible its way too far gone wrong
it must start again
laws on climate change, pollution, certain human rights, civil rights, etc etc many will remain, the dozens of worldwide organizations we will still be part of, oecd, g8 , g20 , nato, climate change, etc etc and like Norway we will still trade as they do with European countries
money talks and bull**** walks....everyone will want to do business with us, probably moreso than ever
