At this point I'm not expecting an answer.

EU referendum: why Brexit is a good idea - Business Insider
Fails to mention the the EU is a single customer for 44% of our exports, and to put barriers between it and us can be nothing else than catastrophic. That is the towering elephant in the room, noticed by international companies using the UK as the runway to the single market, but apparently by few others.

Cameron went cap in hand, asking for jack ****, and even the little he asked for, was met with imperious disdain. He had to go asking different leaders to give the little he wanted. Even then, they watered it down.

We've had enough. Sorry if that offends.
So you really don't have an idea on what you are voting on? Also, asking for the abolishment of free movement of people isn't what call "a little".

Welcome to my world.

I've been doing the same with about 200 others elsewhere. Not one credible answer has been forthcoming.

These people are thick. Frankly, it's a waste of time trying to debate with them. I'm utterly sick of it all.

Austria is essentially a satellite of the German economy. They can't afford to leave.

I have already told you what I think the outcome will be. More negotiations, a new settlement which meets some of the main UK concerns and a second referendum.

Ah, the man who never reads The Sun.

Sounds like you've just swallowed today's copy.

Other EU countries are about to have their own little wave of immigration - from the brightest and the best of British folk who don't want to remain in a country with pathetic tabloid minded people like you.

EU's gain, I'd say. They should have an EU-wide party next Friday.

Awww... Cute

You are basically a satellite of the European banking system... Good luck when that's taken from you...

How is that even possible? The Tories won't ignore the outcome of the referendum. They will have to initiate Art 50 negotiations. The UK will leave the EU and the EEA. The UK will be the junior partner in any further negotiations. The UK will have to renegotiate it's WTO trade deals without much leverage.

It's insane to think that this will help the country.

So you think trying to stem the flow of millions of immigrants to my country isn't a 'little' huh? It doesn't seem much to ask to me.
