Did you not read my post where I said "Forget the election" .. I guess not I see this as an easy proposition: if you trust the guy to run the economy and this same guy says "don't leave" then maybe you should listen?

The two are not mutually exclusive
You wouldn't ask George to mend your car either so you need compare apples with apples.

So you don't trust his judgement on the economy in relation to the EU so why trust it in relation to other aspects of the economy?
