Well the fact that the one issue that the Leave campaigners did have did seem to only be about Immigration.

How do we run ourselves now that we're out of the EU? Because our leaders better have a good plan after pulling out of a stable market for us.

And what caused this result (and it's why this Referendum shouldn't have been handed out) is that the more negative side was gonna vote on this and of course they've screwed the majority of people that wanted to stay, over.

Mock, I find some of the inane drivel which you are posting highly offensive, and I am confounded as to why your name did not appear with any regularity on any of the long and fiercely debated threads on here concerning the EU, considering how vociferous you now are on the subject.

Let us 'grown ups' play a little game - one which I devised earlier in the thread for another 'bright young EU expert:

Without googling - tell me:

a) What The Rotterdam Effect is.
b) Whether the Uk has a positive trade balance with the EU or a deficit?
c) What is the mean average of our Gross Annual contribution to the EU?
d) What monumental benefit did Margaret Thatcher win from the EU in 1984?
e) What is the unfair anomoly in Britains EU Fishing quota?

The first young EU 'Expert' failed to even acknowledge this simple little quiz, so perhaps you will fare better?

A - I don't know.
B - Is a positive considering our Economy has improved over the decades since we've been trading with the EU.
C - I don't know the Maths of that, but I know that we contribute within the top 3 within the EU in terms of funding.
D - I don't know.
E - I don't know.

I'm no expert, it's just basic knowledge that when the UK has got one of the best Economies in the world (which is thanks to the EU) then you don't vote to make our Economy worse just because of Immigration or whatever other issues that you've got.

I'm not trying to be 'clever' Mock, I am just trying to illustrate to you that you know so very little about a subject matter which you are now so vociferous about.

Admonishing and reproaching and insulting members for their 'informed' choices when you are so clearly ignorant of the subject under discussion, is pure folly.

You are simply NOT qualified to make the erroneous and sweeping statements which you are making.

The Leave campaigners are not informed.

A lot of them don't even know that we voted the UKIP to represent us in the EU ffs.
