But the point is the UK is an economic success in the EU. 44% of our trade is with the EU and 56% with non EU but if we leave and we are not able to negotiate access to continue the level of trade with the EU then will the rest of the world pick up the slack so we don't take an economic hit that's the $64,000 question. For me the leavers are unable to demonstrate that. Why would we want to jeopardise our undoubted economic prosperity is quite frankly beyond me!

what happens if the EU economy tanks in the next few years, will we be able to replace trade with the rest of the world to pick up the slack? when the EU introduce regulations and law that treaten our properity, such as FTT , or increase payments to EU contributions to fund their recovery, how we we make up the ground else where in our economy? remaining in the EU is not a one way bet.

I've realized that this thread has just become some sad late night meeting place for about a dozen of the same old posters. Do you all just rant at each other?

You Sir are an affront to the remain campaign, just like HT, full of sarcasm.

However, maybe that's what they want an economic hit to our prosperity to make us less attractive to people wanting to come here that's probably the only way that they will control immigration! But its not "they" that will suffer but the ordinary person in the street that will take the hit!
We won't stop trading with the nations that are in the EU! How come you just can't understand that simple fact?

Ey? So are you talking from Scotland's point of view now or just repeating the same tosh about the UK leaving the EU?

if you and I did business together but you decided it would be better for your business to trade wider afield, but I told you I'd **** you up if you left me, would you just capitulate?

No, I might say, let's work together and **** some other business.

So you'd like to work with me still even though I've threatened you?

You'd be my puppet on a string? Who's business would you suggest we **** now we've stayed together?

The Americans? The Chinese?

So you think if Scotland voted to leave the UK we'd grind them into the dirt? You think that's what we are do you?

Ha ha ha!

Yeah, I bet you'd have hung Sir Walter Raleigh for suggesting that we might go and trade with the rest of the world.

We've become a nation of little Englanders. Some of our great entrepreneurs and explorers - the ones that actually built the nation you are all so proud of - they'd be ashamed of Leave campaigners.

Get a grip and connect with the modern world in a modern way.

Little Englanders i detest that word, a word often used by those who have a tremendous loathing of everything and anything English. why don't your kind just do one if your not happy here.

Nope, but you lot get very jumpy at the idea of Jonny Foreigner competing with us outside of the EU.

You haven't threatened me. You've just said it how it is. Why should I be surprised by that.

I'll work with you, because believe me, the Chinese and Americans won't be pulling any punches. Ask the TTIP negotiators.

Big Englander. Pro our nation. Pro the best for it. On balance, in the EU.

I'm not giving up Hamilton. Personally I think you are a moron and therefore do not wish to engage with someone so nasty, sarcastic and simply juvenile. Post away. From now on your not worth my time. :tosser:

After watching question time I've come to the conclusion it doesn't ****ing matter, the rich will stay rich and the poor will stay poor whatever happens, therefore I won't be bothering to vote.
