If we vote for Brexit what happens

In continuation of my previous post regarding discontent on the continent:

Meanwhile Donald Tusk himself is beginning to face up to some of the EU's problems, saying:

Today many people, not only in the UK, think that being part of the European Union stands in the way of stability and security.

It would be a fatal error to assume that the negative result in the UK referendum represents a specifically British issue

We do not have too much time to spare. Bratislava will have to be a turning point.....

And the other side of the coin; banks cancel their previous concerns of a post-Brexit recession:

If the UK economy were at a standstill it would mean no one in the UK is earning or spending. Now that would be news.

What the Guardian might mean is, it thinks growth - er actually, prospective growth has paused/stopped er.. growing.
Actually reading the article shows it's a compendium of old pessimistic opinion and survey pieces from the past week.

What happened to serious journalism?

Thankfully the Graun is not all that influential these days, if it were it would be responsible to talking the economy down single-handedly.

Tax payer pays your council rent so the claim you keep trying to make is false. If no housing crisis why do most people in the country want less people in the country?

People are tribal and most people don't have the time or the inclination to learn that migrants don't steal their jobs or women.

There is no housing crisis. If you work you pay rent in the social sector. In most the country that social rent is higher than the equivlant home Vought with a mortgage. Of the 11 regions of the UK 9 definitely have no housing crisis.

It's not a Guardian op-ed piece, you know...it's a forecast by the British Chamber of Commerce.

Warsaw has now sent police officers to Harlow to protect Poles from vile Brexit racists after the killing of a polish man by a gang.

Britain is truly looked down on by the world now.

people have learnt that a plentiful supply of cheap labour

-suppresses wages especially for the lower paid
-discouraged investment to improve productivity so maintaining low pay for ever
-that immigrants live in housese/flats which, in general increases the price of property and reduces the amount of family sized houses that young people can live in
-actually immigrant do enter relationships with the native born
-know that the effects of immigration vary from area to area of the country
-know that migrants do use NHS, Schools, road space, train space etc
-know that immigrant consume imports like food, fuel, electronic goods etc

and they know all this without being tribal.

Someone buying a sensible house to live in with a sensible mortgage (one they can afford) is probably not a debt junkie, someone who constantly lives beyond their means (and that includes "buying" houses they can`t really afford if rates go up) is probably a debt junkie of some form or another. Not sure what you are saying about savings?

The vast majority of mortgage holders then.
