Many immigrants work in our public services, supporting them rather than taking from them.

You still haven’t cited an example of EU legislation making business worse off. It’s just the usual generic waffle about trade deals (as yet undefined) and a better future (maybe). Back to the glory days of Empire with the Commonwealth trade deals.
But the tax they are paying is tax that somebody already in the UK could be paying instead. Their only contribution to GDP is their own consumption. Eg Food and that usually has to be specially imported from THEIR countries.
