£65 Billion withdrawn from UK - Brexit ruining economy already

Whoops.

I'm obviously referring to the part that the UK will be making more than 65bn outside the EU.

Whoops.

That's common sense. Exchanging the world's only failing economy with multiple non failing ones, seems pretty logical it would make more.

Common sense for the economically illiterate.

EU is a failing economy? It is the biggest, most successful in the world. You need to get your facts checked.

"Most successful"

Didn't realise having the slowest growth on the planet (bar antarctica) was "successful"

As I said, for the economically illiterate.

You do realise that Europe, being the largest economy in the world, cannot grow like Asia right?

And Asia is paying the price for its massive growth already.

Bu whatever floats your boat. If you think the UK will be making billions despite the clear-cut reluctance of other countries to talk on deals then there's nothing one can do.

Common sense for the economically illiterate.

Or link for a much more elaborate (and more recent) source

So when you subtract a big chunk of that trade which represents the UK it is no longer the number one economy in the world is it? The trade between UK and other world economies, with the added factor that we will still have EU trade because they simply can't afford to cut us off, puts the UK in a better position.

Honestly, when jobs are at risk, people's lives, I can tell I don't really care about "taking about control", not being homeless is a bit more important.

We're allowed 2 years grace before any trade is affected, by then we would have found more alternative sources of trade. Which will amount to more than £65m.

Did you seriously just say this? What kind of logic is this?

And if you remove California and New York from the US it won't be the 2nd largest either. The UK has benefited enormously being in the EU with regards to trade. You can't simply say - oh look, if we remove the UK, it'll fall. That missed the point entirely.

Yeah, look how certain Schauble is - http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/jun/10/no-single-market-access-for-uk-after-brexit-wolfgang-schauble-says

It's hilarious that people think they can leave and continue to get the benefits as well. As he says, the UK either stays or leaves. Leaving and trying to get another deal would lead to the same position.

Why don't we find £65 billion in trade now rather than waiting for it to disappear and having to find it later?

I don't care about scare tactics dude, 20% of German cars are sold here so it is crazy to think the Krauts would turn their back on that volume of trade just to punish us for leaving. Obviously the EU won't come crashing down just because we've pulled out but they will want to retain trade that they value rather than see it go elsewhere.



Well we will be as soon as the referendum is settled.
