This is one of the reasons why all the scare mongering is not working on me there will be plenty of time for negotiation to reach a satisfactory deal for both sides and a trade deal is wanted as much by EU company's as by us. Remain is getting itself caught up in a mess now I've lost count how many different figures there have been for unemployment going up I've heard 300k, 400k, 500k and 800k and costs to ordinary British people also seem to be changing weekly as well which just highlights it's all guesses and no one has a definitive clue.
I'm still prepared to take the chance on leaving as I believe some things are above financial cost and our independence and sovereignty are two of those and given the stated aim for the EU we will have to lose those completely for the EU to become what so many of it's top tier want it to become.

Indeed. The whole point is things won't collapse on the 24th or the economy take a massive hit. The world as we know it will not end. Mortgages will not go up on the 24th and 800k jobs will not be lost either. As we build up trade with the EU and the other countries we can't trade with on our own at the moment it will help bolster the economy as will the first savings from membership.
Scaremongering is all it is. I thought Michael handled himself better than Major did on Andrew Marr by explaining the £350 mill figure. Let's see if the voters agree?
