Cheaper food, cheaper exports, protection from dumping by other countries, better employment laws, better safety standards, less red tape for exporters to the EU, a better pound dollar exchange rate, .... Now its your turn to come up with good reasons to leave as actual facts and not more lies and hopes. None of your points are true! Food is more expensive in the EU, Some food is more expensive but most will go up when we leave. Another remoaner lie. When Britain is free to import what food it imports from anywhere it likes in the world without any EU tariff on it, it will in fact go down, you silly little pathological liar. That assumes other parts of the world have spare capacity to sell to us. Nope. Much of it like butter and cheese and lamb etc etc etc are completely trivial to produce more of when demand increases. Not much harder with wine and fruit etc. Australia & New Zealand have found other customers for their products. Thanks for that completely superfluous proof that you have never had a ****ing clue. |

And petrol from Saudi for what it sells there for too? Any other dreams? Welcome to increasing self inflicted EU poverty Dave! Do you really think there will be less poverty after we leave the EU? You seem to be in a club of one there. Yes. Cut of the excessive supply of cheap unskilled labour and wages at the bottom end will rise. But of course socialists don't want that because the ex-poor don't vote Labour. But several of your co-conspirators on here want the benefit of cheap food etc from all around the world. For a damned good reason. That is going to be very good for UK jobs. Wont make any difference to UK jobs when it replaces imports of more expensive food from the EU. |

Every country in the world will be very keen to get access to the UK market. Most of them wont be interested. Why wouldn't they want to sell us stuff? The 64,000 dollar question is how we're going to pay for it. Same way you clowns pay more for what you get from the EU. |

More crystal ball unsubstantiated crap. Very little of our industry is involved in EU trade. No only about 44% of our export trade goes to the EU And the bulk of that will continue, because even if tariffs are imposed, the devaluation of the pound means it will be cheaper for EUians to buy after Britain leaves the EU. |

It's clear that they have never operated on a commercial envoronment at all. If a market exists, and the price is right, production can be increased. True. Now explain just why the UK has such a bad trade balance in goods. For the same reason the entire modern first world except Australia does, the cost of production is much lower in China for all by the most complex stuff like aircraft engines, aircraft etc and stuff they can't do like financial services and docos and banking etc. But not explain how Germany manages to do so much better. Much worse with stuff like financial services, the best scotch, docos etc. Before the EEC, we imported beef from argenina, fruit from australia and south africa, lamb and dairy from new zealand and when we joined the EEC ALL THESE WENT UP IN PRICE. and we didnt import them any more., Ah - back to importing things again. That’s what all modern world countrys do. We already do far too much of that. Even sillier than you usually manage, and that’s saying something. There is no alternative. Especially of all those products which can be easily produced here. But not anything like as cheaply. |

Not one on here (or anywhere else) has a clear and viable plan for our future outside the EU. More remoaner lies. Tell the EU to go and **** themselves and carry on regard is a very clear and viable plan for britains future outside the EU. Just a number of uneducated hopes or guesses. More remoaner lies. And regardless of whether they have or havent, the majority who bothered to vote voted to leave and you remoaner ****wits get to like that or lump it. reams of your even sillier **** flushed where it belongs |

This will affect our exports to them adversely, but as we only export 44% of our exports to them it will only be a minor inconvenience having lots of industry shut down. More crystal ball unsubstantiated crap. Very little of our industry is involved in EU trade. The EU is by far our single largest export market for goods. And will continue to be once Britain leaves the EU and will likely see even more exported to the EU because even if the EU does impose tariffs on some of Britains exports that compete with what the EU itself produces, the devaluation of the pound will mean that stuff will be cheaper in the hands of the buyers. And then there are services Same applys to those with the devaluation of the pound. - and the fact so many businesses base themselves in the UK because of easy access to the EU. In fact its only really the car industry that that is true of and much of that has left Britain anyway for various reasons. But all I'd like from Brexiteers is the facts about who we will export to if we lose the EU market. Britain wont lose the EU market, you watch. Not guesses or hopes, but facts. You claim about losing the EU market is just that, a pig ignorant guess. As most sensible people would want to know *before* leaping off that cliff. No one has leapt off any cliff, remoaner. And regardless of whether you approve or not, the majority of those who bother to vote voted to leave and you ****wit remoaners get to like that or lump it. |

And I'm asking just where we are going to export to - both goods and services - if we lose free access to the EU and become uncompetitive there. Given the devaluation of the pound, Britain wont be uncompetitive there, ****wit. We are not a country which is even vaguely self sufficient in anything. That’s complete and utter bull**** with all of docos, scotch, aircraft engines, financial services, etc etc etc. So have to earn a living in this world. And that is easier to do given the devaluation of the pound. And how well we do that determines wages etc. And which country hordes want to move to. Clearly that is Britain. Not the relative pittance we pay to the EU. Even sillier than you usually manage, and that’s saying something. |

And marg makes a lot more sense anyway. if that is becoming and expensive in short supply it as much to do with the squeezing of margins to Dairy farmers by the likes of Tesco, Asda etc that has forced many of them to give up production rather than work for bugger all than anything else.

Quite. If there is one thing we could be self sufficient in, it is dairy produce. But brexiteers want to buy it from the cheapest source worldwide. Only a fool wouldn’t. Then lie about being concerned about UK jobs More of your lies. There is no problem with UK jobs, that’s why so many foreigners keep pouring into the country, liar. |

Nothing even remotely like a whim. Seeing the result of any EUian who wants to move to Britain free to do that. Do you stay in a ****ed situation when there is a viable alternative to change to ? Yep, you stupid remoaners are actually that stupid. |
