Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

Once again you live in hope!

Put up or SHUT up..

Any new trade agreement has to be voted on by all the countries of the EU and a qualified majority is necessary otherwise no agreement.

They'll do as Frau Merkel tells them to do..

I wouldn't be so sure.

Ask the snake oil salesman.

Fifth 'In Dark' Over Economic Impact Of Brexit

Poll gives Brexit campaign three percentage points lead


Opinium survey also shows extent of age and class divisions between leave and remain camps

The leave campaign has picked up momentum and taken a three point lead over remain in the latest Observer/Opinium poll on the EU referendum. The Brexiters now stand on 43%, while 40% say they support the campaign to keep the UK in the union.

The poll suggests the remain camp has lost four percentage points in the last two weeks, during which Boris Johnson and Michael Gove have relentlessly campaigned on the theme of immigration.

The leave campaign appears to have picked up three percentage points. The potential in the leave campaign’s strategy is reflected in responses suggesting that two in five voters (41%) cite immigration as one of their two most important issues when deciding how to vote. Just over a third (35%) cite Britain’s ability to make its own laws without EU interference and 29% cite the impact of leaving on the UK economy.

Sonny boy, stop shouting.

It.

The population of EU is about 500 million and England 53million.

I think I prefer to sell into the larger regularised EU market.

Why not sell into the even wider global market, especially as the EU market is shrinking as a %age of it?

And how come its just 'England' now...It's the UK..65 million

Another post from fred, trying to distort..

In 2013 the population of the world was over 7 billion, why confine ourselves to 7% of the global market?

Do both.

If Brexit succeeds I can see Scotland going for another devolution referendum and "guess" Northern Ireland doing the same within 5 years.

Patrolling their border will be interesting.

Have a listen to John Major on the Andrew Mar show.

PS,

Of course, the "Uk" and the "Eu" should and will trade with rest of the world, but mainland Europe will see the UK as wanting to turn their back on EU and operate on that base.

Re ''Do both'' ---- We can and what better than to trade globally free from the restrictions imposed by the EU on ALL our non-EU trading.

That's right Fred, the €uro's will get the hump and sell all their stuff elsewhere, avoiding their best customer.


What planet do you live on?

Now listen to Boris Freda.

Trying tearing up a few "legal" contracts while dealing with you neighbours!
