    Where would the incentives come for inward investment?
    Public service would definitely have to shrink, causing huge unemployment.
    Free prescriptions would definitely have to go, an almost certainly poorer NHS would be inevitable, due to lack of funding.
    Infrastructure projects (roads, new hospitals etc) would be put on the long finger due to lack of funding.
    I think the list is endless.

    would the £750 per month housing benefit I receive end .
    Would I have to pay my own £20 per month mortgage .Would I have to look for tenants that work .
