I've been on the in/out fence for a bit, As a business I can see the monetary benefits (which do outweigh the monetary costs) yet also see the inane rules forced on us. Currently I'd vote in... but only just..
If we stay in the EU, the EU courts will decide what action we can take with regard to migrants, which means we cannot reject EU migrants.

If we leave the EU, UK courts will decide.

I prefer the latter as it gives us greater power to act on immigration.

There is little if any real support for the UK in the EU. If the UK leaves the EU it will be interesting to see what happens to all the migrants. If they come here we can expel them as there won't be an EU court compelling us to keep them.

The only way to get back control is to leave the EU because then the UK government and courts will be the ones making the decisions rather than being dependent on the vitually non-existent support for the UK from other EU countries.

I really hope the other EU leaders reject Cameron's ideas so that we can leave and get on with running our own country ourselves.
