    The point is the EU is falling apart, the U.K. Wanted out before the messy colapse



    But at what cost? The financial and tech hub moving to Frankfurt/ Berlin?


    People don't realise being in the EU transcends immigration and decision making by local government. Just because it doesn't affect them directly doesn't mean it won't affect them.


    If the economy suffers, who do you think will pay for it? Higher taxes, benefit cuts, services cuts, cost of living e.t.c.


    This is something some people haven't thought about. What about those who voted leave because they don't like David Cameron and the conservatives. While this may be fine for General elections, is not when the future of the Country's Economy as a whole is at stake.

    The future of the world economy has been at stake anyway, it will all be blamed on brexit, but the collapse would have happened anyway
    Nothing has been fixed since 2008, it was just pushed into the future

    If it would have happened anyway, brexit will have made it happen a lot faster, and make it a lot harder to recover.
