re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
Some of the criticisms against the EU are valid – e.g. bureaucracy. However the benefits of a single market far outweigh them. Better to reform, which is to every countries benefit , than cut our noses off to spite our face. Leaving would hurt us more than the EU – it accounts for half of our exports.
I haven’t heard anything positive form the ‘out’ side about life outside the EU; just negative, jingoistic nonsense, and constant racist guff about immigration. Their campaign, if you can call it that, is doomed.
