Nigga I have a thread for this

BaconShelf · February 24, 2016, 07:18:51 AM

I'm swinging more towards leave but I'm not final on it yet. I need to look into it a bit more so I can decide properly.

I'm really looking forwards to 4 months of nothing but jubilant screaming from the Daily Mail/Express/Telegraph.

Was Lonepaul the one who thought the UK would be controlling the EU in some years?

But why? I'm honestly curious what the benefits are to leaving, as compared to staying with the new deal they're working out.

Few do.

Most of those who agree that the UK will be worse off for leaving the EU are basing their opinion on increased trade frictions between the UK and the EU and greater restrictions on immigration. Personally, I side more with economists like Autor and Thaler who either didn't answer or affirmed uncertainty; the net economic gain from being a member of the EU--especially in the current economic climate--is not very well estimated. The best work I know of on this topic is by Patrick Minford, who is a staunch Eurosceptic.

My reasons for leaving are primarily political.

Eh, just had a good two-and-a-half hour drive from Bristol to Surrey for the weekend which wasn't too bad.
