Baroness Warsi defects from Leave to Remain

The Leave campaign has not provided a single viable alternative or blueprint for a post-Brexit Britain. Not one.

Pre-rebate, gross, average, weekly dues are £350 million. It is disingenuous to present this as an amount that goes to the EU, however, plainly it does not. I personally prefer to go with £250 million per week gross, and £165 million per week net. Whichever figure you chose, it's a heck of a lot of money that we could do with controlling ourselves! #TakeControl

Short of EU collapse this is going to happen sooner or later. Perhaps not in the next year or so but we presently have absolutely no guarantees re: veto from Cameron, who ducked the opportunity on several occasions (shameful)

Over half of our laws originate in/are influenced by the EU now. If they've worded this inaccurately then that's a shame/possibly disingenuous but again, this is, in essence, a fact

I have just dealt with your charges, so unless you have any others I suggest you retract this baseless prejudicial defamation

Saying things that are technically true in an intentionally misleading manner counts as lying.

You didn't rebut the turkey lie. Even Boris johnson said there is no chance of them joining. Sooner or later? Not for decades, perhaps centuries.

Fair point, albeit that not all that many wash completely with the bulk of the electorate e.g. especially the more pinickety/red tapey ones that do hinder/curtail SME’s (hence 2/3 of SME business leaders are for #Brexit)

My point is that a lower pound and higher inflation do not necessarily go together as you imply. In any case, the imports would dry up as armageddon hit us and recession took its toll on Britain, according to remain orthodoxy.

Amazing how hypocritical posters such as Good bloke, who were vehemently against Scottish independence are now arguing for Brexit. Couldn't make it up lol

Perhaps you could explain how supporting one and not the other is hypocritical.

It seems logical, to me, that the British nation state should be both united and independent.

The arguments for Britain leaving the EU parallel that of the Scottish independence campaign. The pursuit of "greater democracy" despite the economic drawbacks which, funnily enough you describe as "scaremongering". Hmmm wonder where I've heard that before.
