re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
The US, China, India, etc have to obey EU product regulations to sell into the EU, so no change there.
If freedom of movement is such a central policy, why did it take a long time before it was introduced? It started as a freedom of movement of WORKERS, not benefit claimants. Were they always eligible for housing and non-contributory benefits or again is it a more recent thing?
How many UK originated policies have found there way to be EU directives and how many German originated polices have done so? That is how much say we have.
If we would lose billions in trade and millions of jobs, where would those billions and millions go to instead? Wouldn't the rest of the EU want us to leave as they would benefit from our alleged future losses?
