SOUNDS GOOD TO ME POG WE LEAVING EU BETTER OFF! The EU is the one that's worst off BY A LONG SHOT.

    If the UK leaves the EU it will be treated like any other third country. So it will have the same tariffs, paper work and regulation as Tuvalu or any other country that has no deals with the EU.

      UK will be a FIRST WORLD COUNTRY without the EU bringing it down any more! The EU is vile and is third world ideal that limits countries and causes damage to them look at italy also Italy will most likely follow us as they have said they are considering also leaving the trash vile EU that supresses them. The single market is a horrible thing that takes away the powers of each country thats part of it UK economy is going to BOOM BABY! cant wait for all the profits with the EU crashing since the Impacts of the UK leaving and other issues with the EU have started a massive decline in EU stability legit They will do more then crash THE EU will dismantle god knows whats going to be made out of the EUs remains but im tell you now it aint looking good.

    the fact is that remaining in the single market still provides
    the same limits against immigration
    that have always existed for all single market member states,
    easily applicable at the UK's few border crossings, ports & airports.
    The UK's failure to enforce is the UK's defect, not the EU's.

The law is implemented in plenty of EU countries and we've had the ability to implement it in the UK since 2004 but the government decided to create an ill-conceived "hostile environment" instead.

    The 'free movement of people' is important, as it allows corporate companies to depress wages and stagnate wage growth for Western European workers. Due to the influx of East European labour moving West and with added mass immigration, this inflates corporate profit margins, with the long term view of being able to compete better with China.

      I never said the finances wouldn't be lowerd for both party's, it defenently will for both
      If you trade with a country and that country's trade becomes more costly then no matter what you do (keep the trade going or find another country to trade with) it would be less money made/ spared

You still didn't say if you were ok with our laws being made overseas. If we did have a say, we wouldn't have allowed the fishing industry to be driven to ruin. We certainly wouldn't allow the EU courts to have jurisdiction over us.
      The original goal of the EU was trading, but it has grown to something untenable now. If it reverts to that then I'll be very happy to stay as a member. Also, it's more than we're members of nato that has kept the peace. Despite the fact, over the last decade, three major EU countries have been at war in the middle east. Ukraine was invaded. An attempted coup occurred in turkey. There were several terrorist incidents in recent years. Hardly peaceful.

      As I said before the single market will numb businesses to competition, especially against China and Russia. The EU is the second worst performing continent in the world. Facts you still haven’t refuted. It has made a trade deal with America much more difficult. It is untenable to stay in an economic union with countries like Turkey, Ireland an Spain.
