We're not really leaving the ECJ are we. A positive development.

How are the people of this country going to benefit from leaving?

Of course not.

The government can't bear to admit the painfully obvious truth that, on the whole, other European countries are better at the business of administration than we are.

That is of course due at least in part to the ideologically-driven underfunding of the entire public sector.

The crushing realisation that those in power of any party don't actually make a difference. This is Cameron's legacy, offering that on a plate by giving people a binary vote which will result in the usual obvious bluster and backtracking.

Time for a change.

No, we're leaving the direct jurisdiction of the ECJ. Still, good that the Tories realise how limiting May's speech to the Tory conference was now.

Ho hum. Still, I can rest easy in the knowledge that at least one person (you) can see how much more beneficial things will be for the UK once we're out.

You have never come up with an answer to that question, however hard you have tried.

Not surprising, since no-one else has either, without lying their head off.

What you mean is that I haven't come up with an answer that satisfies you continued wish for the UK to remain a fully functioning member of the EU.

I'll give you 2 for now then I'm going home.

1. Conclude a mutualy beneficial trade deal with the EU whilst at the same time have the ability to negotiate our own trade deals with countries such as China, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and India without being hampered by the EU negotiating these deals on our behalf whilst having to protect wine makers in France, tailors in Italy, cheese makers in Holland and all manner of obstacles pout in the way by the other 26 members.

2. An end to freedom of movement will see increased immigration from countries such as India and China.

Currently under FOM we cannot turn any EU citizen away from entering and working in the UK, unless there are serious circumstances (and a criminal record alone does not prevent somebody entering the country.

Unless you believe in a complete open door immigration policy with no control at all then those controls come at the expense of non EU migrants. That discriminatory policy will end once we have left the EU.

In the past GB has tried to answer the question "how will it benefit the people of the UK"

I think it is along the lines of, stuff will probably be a bit rough initially, but many economists agree that in 10 years or so the UK will be better off than if the UK had stayed in.

---

Started that before seeing your answer, so...

Your points 1, and 2, are outcomes of leaving the EU.

Whether those outcomes will be a benefit to the people in the UK, is an unproven assertion.

The most definitive thing I have ever seen from anyone is the "it will all be better 10 years after we left" line.

Made by economists.

And as we all know, the best way to get three opinions on an economic matter is to put two economists in a room.

And it doesn't really cover, will those most effected badly initially, as predicted, be the ones reaping the rewards when the UK start motoring along, better than it would have otherwise done so.
