The EU needs us more than we need them,Cameroon his trying to save face by saying we should stay in,when out we should close our bordes and send all ilegel imigrants back,and the rest who are not happy with the country.

If they wanted to allow an even larger influx of cheap labour from those countries they would already be doing it, the EU couldn't stop them.

 

Now you are just being silly, your opinion is that daft it can't even be described as scaremongering because all it will do is make people laugh.

 

It's a very real prospect. If we cut off the inflow of EU migrants they need to come from elsewhere.

 

With EU employment legislation removed then the minimum wage and living wage could be repealed and we'd have a ready-made importable workforce willing to toil for peanuts, probably below levels that workers from even the poorest EU countries would accept anyway.

 

Join the dots and witness the future you are arguing for.

For someone that claims to be on the fence you are doing a very good job and at spreading unsubstantiated speculation.

It's not unsubstantiated that the leave campaigns have been talking about trade with the commonwealth.

 

It's not unsubstantiated that we need a certain level of immigration.

 

It's not unsubstantiated that there is a strong element within the Tory parliamentary party that wants to repeal EU law around regulation, e.g. regulation of the workplace.

We already trade with them.

 

If your previous claims come to fruition we won't need any immigration, but if we do then at least we will be able to choose the people we want.

I don't think the UK ever signed up fully to EU regulation or the working time directive, even under the Labour party, there has always been an 'opt out' and a list of exclusions, the Working Time Directive hardly changed any workplace practices in the UK !

What regulation of the workplace do these Tories want to repeal exactly and how much did the NMW or the tax threshold go up under the last Labour regime ?

Outside of the EU we would be able to create a free trade agreement with the commonwealth as well as a free trade agreement with the EU.

Wouldn't that be nice?

 

Nobody is talking about ending immigration!

At least nobody I care to hear.

Japanese companies have and are continuing to build plant and invest and employ.

 

Great example. A country who's economy has been in deflation and had very little growth if any for the last tow decades.

so please can somebody tell me what benefit the average British person gets from being in the EU, because my guess is .... nowt !

 

To the uneducated probably not very much. But for chartered engineers for example, quite a lot with European registration as a European Engineer where working in Europe is made so much simpler as your qualifications are recognised alongside other European equivalents. This is the same for the medical profession and many others.

Pardon my education but the average British person is not a chartered engineer, and seeing as your obviously educated yourself what difference will it make if we are out of the EU to your qualifications ? Will they suddenly become less worthy or invalid

How would future engineers register with FEANI as an example if the UK is no longer are a member within the organisation because we are no longer part of the EU? There is no guarantee whatsoever FEANI won't rescind the UK's membership.
