Hard to imagine how the UK can benefit from being outside the EU. Surely we’ll have to implement their rules to trade with them. They will introduce rules that could harm us and we’ll have no say. They’re our biggest customer and some want to say goodbye.
Some say the EU damages trade, making us uncompetitive. How does that stack up with Germany being one of the worlds most successful economies.
Some say we’ll set up a trading arrangement. Maybe, but on who’s terms. Will David slay Goliath in this version.
If the UK was outside the EU we would not be part of any major world power. At a time of change in the world power balance is this wise. How long before Britain and France have to give up their privileged positions that create influence on world committee’s.
There are those who wrongly think the Human Rights Act and its court are related to the EU. These are nothing to do with the EU and non-members elect to be subject to them and members can elect to opt out.
Some say most of the population has never been given the opportunity to vote in a referendum. So what? Are we to have referendums every 10 to 20 years. Should we have had a referendum at all. What are General Elections about. What is the effect of UKIP. Probably more Labour and LibDem MP’s and so the opposite to their intentions.
Hard to find real positives about being outside the EU.
