why not stay?

Well I heard a very respected Brit say Britain puts in more money than it gets out of it.

Lets see what is going to happen: you will lose scotland your currency is in a freefall you will get a huge economic crisis you will be the example of what happens when you leave the EU

The EU has huge economic advantages, those are worth quite a lot...

and because SOMEONE says SOMETHING it does NOT mean it is true....

Oh, sorry, I'll stop blindly following people. Like I do. But these economic advantages surely could be achieved by joining specifically economic alliances yes?

Haha. No. The free trade agreements the brits were in were HUGE, now, they're likely to lose: Scotland Northern Ireland, and FUCKING GIBRALTAR

Well, idk, they do spend quite alot of money on EU, but when they have left they will spend around as much just to get access to the common market

£350M given per week, none of it seen back, Oh wait! farming subsidies.... Lets hope it ends well

I'd like to discuss fj's and ithewinner's points: -You will lose scotland Its literally the will of the people, if they choose to leave, then so be it. -Currency is in Freefall It will slowly rebound back, maybe it won't be as valuable as it was before, but I'm pretty certain it won't hit levels below the the recession of 2008 -Huge Economic Crisis As I said, the economy will probably rebound back, although it won't be as strong as before, given some time, It will probably normalize though. -you will be the example of what happens when you leave the EU Literally not an argument, so what if we're the Example? I really don't see a downside, if being free from the EU proves better than being in the EU, then its better to just leave the EU, and vice versa. -Loss of Scotland See above -Northern Ireland Maybe the terrorists will stop attacking, and again, will of the people -Gibraltar That place is more Spanish than British, will of the people and all that Jazz. Also, if EU tries to Bully England, it can simply just take its goods "elsewhere" namely Russia, North America, and products produced solely in Britain will not be easily available in the EU
