There are other reasons for Brexit. Britain not only needs to have complete control of immigration, but also complete control of all our laws and all our tax policies.

All the above need to be set by a government that can be elected and unelected by the British people only.

This will not be the case if we stay in the EU. More and more of the above will be decided by the EU. The laws will be proposed by an unelected body, that can not be thrown out, and these laws will be voted on by a European parliament, which the British representatives will obviously be a minority in.
