caze Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 what brexit people don't realise is that they won't get what they think they're voting for, Britain out of the EU will still negotiate to be part of the EEA and the EU Customs Union, but in order to do that will have to agree to pretty much all the same shit that they have to agree to inside of the EU (including free movement of people), with the downside being that they won't end up with any influence inside Europe, so all of the supposed cons and none of the benefits. there's no chance of britain not entering into the EEA (or some similar trade agreement), to not do so would be economic suicide, and given that the majority of UK politicians are in favour of remaining in the EU, it's no surprise that they'll also be in favour of joining the EEA as well, brexit won't change that.

Also from the BBC today: Quote Former defence chief Lord Guthrie has switched sides to the Leave campaign in the EU referendum, saying he is worried by the prospect of "a European army".

Tried to source wherever possible, rather than just listing claims that i've made up in my head. Putin has not announced which side he favours. The ISIS "claim" comes from something David Cameron said in a speech and not from ISIS themselves (source) If Trump becomes the next American PM then his opinion vastly outweighs whatever Obama thinks (doesn't mean I support Trump btw) The IMF do appear to indicate a Remain leaning in their latest report, however its not as damning as Osborne and Cameron had hoped. A report just published by the National Farmers Union shows that Brexit could be beneficial to Farmers - althouth they seem to stick with their remain stance and the conclusions on the NFU site are fairly biased without highlighting the possible Brexit positives. Goldman Sachs want us to Remain as they are currently investing millions of dollars by building a new EU headquarters in London. The "minority of business leaders" would be Lord Bamford (boss of JCB), The boss of Wetherspoons, Timpsons, from The International Business Times:- Quote John Mills, millionaire Labour donor and founder of John Mills Limited (JML), is among the supporters of the Vote Leave campaign, while Joe Foster and John Caudwell, the founders of Reebok and Phone 4U respectively have also backed the Brexit movement. Luke Johnson, the chairman of cafe chain Patisserie Valerie, and Nigel Wilson, the CEO of Legal & General, have all expressed themselves in favour of Britain leaving the EU. Oliver Hemsley, CEO of Numis Securities, and Crispin Odey, boss of leading hedge fund Odey Asset Management, have also backed the leave campaign, and also Sir James Dyson (a great interview here and I want to "borrow" his graph on EU / rest of world trading trends with the UK. On the university side of things, YES lots of lecturers etc. have announced they wish for an EU remain, but I like this quote from The Times which helps to put the science funding thing into perspective: Quote With relief from the bureaucratic process of EU grant applications, there should be time enough to pursue other possibilities. In general, if we leave the EU, British universities will lose only a tiny 2.6 per cent of total income, and 16 per cent of total research income. Perhaps this is better put in a different way: if we leave the EU, our universities will still have 97.4 per cent of their total income, and 84 per cent of their research income.

The IMF are shitting themselves over the fact that we might Brexit - the UK is just behind Germany in terms of GDP and its seriously going to rock the boat if we left. The UK can print its own money, unlike the Greeks. Comparing those two economies is ridiculous on a number of levels. A leave vote is stupid for pretty much all the reasons caze has pointed out. Additionally, the UK might be just behind Germany, but England isn't. The effect of a leave vote on sovereignty referendums in Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales shouldn't be underestimated; the effect of those three leaving the UK and rejoining the EU would mean England would be in a sorry state. Also that Sky article on the IMF report really understates how bad even the smallest drop they predict would be on the UK economy.
