If we vote for Brexit what happens

The current wave of immigrants is mostly stopping in the EU at present so the 'but wait til they come here' argument is, I guess, wearing thin.
It'll take about 8 years (ish) for most of them to get German, Swedish, or whatever nationality - by then the war in Syria may well be over and many will go back to their homeland.0 -
fair enough
you have no economic arguments to show that a more crowded isle provides a better standard of living for the people, so just call some-one racist instead.
That's exactly why I've put you on ignore. I didn't call you a racist but you decided to pretend I did because.....well I don't presume to know why you post as you do.
I didn't say that a more crowded country would be necessarily richer I argued, contrary to your point, that a more crowded country wouldn't be poorer in infrastructure as the larger workforce could make more infrastructure.This message is hidden because CLAPTON is on your ignore list.
I'm bored with you for now.0 -

Written by a University of Warwick academic, so will be dismissed by the brexiters as elitist and out of touch. Let's talk about bendy bananas and Brussels mandarins instead.Don't blame me, I voted Remain.0 -

do you predict housing standards rise (space per person ) and costs reduce when the population grow?0 -

incredible : EU subsidies would change if we weren't part of the EU.
If the UK government does nothing (i.e. replace the UK funded EU subsidies) then farmers would be worse off.
I hope they didn't actually pay for that report.0 -
Brexit would expose British brands to 'insane' red tape, says Richard ReedRichard Reed, Innocent co-founder and deputy chair of Britain Stronger in Europe, argues Britain leaving the EU would create 'insane' red-tape for businesses.
Reed warned Marketing at the Business Funding Show of the dangers of leaving the EU and its "complete and unfettered access to one set of regulations for 27 countries".
"People moan about the regulation in the EU but it makes it easier to do business," says Reed. "We [Innocent] do business with 16 countries in the EU and one that is out. For the one that is out we have to hand sticker every single bottle with a bit of extra labelling - it is insane."

so some-one doesn't like to trade outside the EU because they have to have a different sticker on the bottle.
thank god we have other businessmen willing to trade with USA, Aus, NZ, China, Indian, African countries, Canada
But I guess some will see this idiot as a worthy roll model for the UK.
One would almost think a brexit person wrote that as a spoof.0
