BOE warns of Brexit recession

[AtW]

Is this the same recession we're already in, or a new one?

UK industry in recession for third time in eight years - BBC News

Why buy UK stuff now when one could wait until 24th June and buy same thing 20%+ cheaper?

Not if the fear mongers are right about sterling crashing if the vote is out, or in.

Basically whatever happens will be due to the current state of the global economy, not whether the UK has to sign some new contracts.

It's the people who want to Leave should explain very well BIG benefits that allegedly would follow Brexit.

Why take big risks in changing when no obvious benefits exist, only new BIG risks???

You mean unlike TTIP killing off the NHS if we stay?

Or getting our fishing rights back if we leave?
How about exiting CAP and supporting our own farms?
Cheaper energy by not having to cough up EU Green Taxes
No Euro to drag us down
Allow state-aiding of industries such as steel.

And you think UK would be out of TTIP when trading with USA??? The only hope for UK to have decent position is to be part of EU negotiation on TTIP.

Or getting our fishing rights back if we leave?

Grow fish in a pond at home.

How about exiting CAP and supporting our own farms?

Support from the Govt should be in form of low taxes, that's all.

Cheaper energy by not having to cough up EU Green Taxes

Govt uses green taxes as excuse to collect lots of revenue, even if you remove those green taxes completely they'd have to invent something else, in any case UK will be bound by UN agreements on the matter.

No Euro to drag us down

It's already the case now - GBP is causing lots of problems with foreign trade, UK should have joined euro zone when it had the chance.

Allow state-aiding of industries such as steel.

And why should that happen in the first place???

Fair enough, at least you're consistent. I don't think many of your fellow Bremainers would agree with you though.

It's a marriage of convenience

Why?

Get yer suit on and go and tell that to the trawlermen on the quayside you plum.

Triple facepalm.

Let them; it'll be good to see them working for a living.

Join the Euro? You mean like other wise Euro-based moves, such as when Gordon sold our gold and bought Euros?

And why should that happen in the first place???

Protect jobs, improve infrastructure.
