I've looked at both sides of the argument, and it's undeniable there's hardly any facts coming from the Remain camp, only fear mongering and speculation. Arguments seem to be as follows:
Remain
- If we leave, UK families will be worse off by £4300 a year
- If we leave, House prices will crash
- If we leave, recession might not be ruled out
- If we leave, we'll have to put our air fares up
- If we leave, we'll have to move manufacturing to (insert name of another country)
- etc.
Exit
- The UK is the 5th largest economy in the world.
- It costs £350 million a week to remain in the EU.
- Remainers keep harping on about Trade Deals. It turns out, you don't actually need a Trade Deal, to trade with another country.
- Currently in the EU we can't trade directly with non-EU countries e.g. India, and EU has been stalling on this
- The EU is the only block not seeing growth, all others (North/South America, China, India are all seeing growth.
- Being is the EU removes the ability of the UK to draft its own laws, to amend and remove existing laws. This is not democratically possible in the EU.
- MP's are massively Pro-EU as when their careers here are over, they get to have a cushy job on some EU commission on something-or-other, with £100,000's in salary and allowances.
- Just Google FCO 30/1048 "Sovereignty and the European Community" 1971, suppressed for 30 years.
Why would anyone want to remain in the EU again?Originally posted by Nigel Farage MEP - 2016-06-24 04:00:00"I hope this victory brings down this failed project and leads us to a Europe of sovereign nation states, trading together, being friends together, cooperating together, and let's get rid of the flag, the anthem, Brussels, and all that has gone wrong."Comment

Exit camp:
- If we remain we'll be overrun by immigrants
- Turkey, Albania et al will be given free access to Britain and we'll be powerless to stop them.
- We have no ability to stop terrorists and criminals coming to the UK.
- All the muslim sex attackers in Germany will be given citizenship and therefore will come here.
- The EU is proceeding head long into a European Super State (TM), which we won't have any option not to be part of.
- The Euro will collapse dragging us into years of recession and poverty.
- (Best of all) The EU is really Ze Germans looking to dominate the continent having failed to do it in two world wars. The official out camp now say the EU is like Hitler.

Non-EU workers who earn less than £35,000 face deportation
Changes to UK visa rules mean that overseas workers will not be allowed to stay in the country for more than five years unless they can prove they earn more than £35,000.
If that applies to you and your five-year visa expires soon, you could face imminent deportation. The new law will not apply to nurses, PhD-level jobs and those on the official ‘Shortage Occupation List’. However most teachers and people working in IT and marketing could be packing their bags sooner than they had hoped. More than 100,000 people signed a petition against the changes, which will come into force on 6 April.Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment
