The UK's EU referendum: All you need to know

[Blue Marlin]

These are all your guess about future..right? Same guess was there about Uk not adopting single currency EURO?

they are exceptions we wont be getting the euro. so whats the plan if we leave wheres the contingency plan? just sit there and think "oh it will be alright"

 

[Pakistani E]

It will be short term and Uk will do great in the long Run..just watch in case of brexit ..its all just assumptions and predictions which could be wrong

You really want to destroy what's left of U.K's manufacturing sector?

• £158bn imports of manufactured goods from the EU to the UK, 2012
• £104bn exports of manufactured goods from the UK to the EU, 2012
• £66.3bn stock of foreign direct investment (FDI) from the EU to the UK, 2011
• 618,000 cars exported in 2012 from the UK to the EU
• £94.3bn stock of FDI from the UK to the EU, 2011
• £2.7bn R&D spending in 2011 from the EU to the UK

% of companies saying this statement best describes their export strategy:

• 48%: There is demand in the EU and we will look for ways to increase our share of it
• 26%: Many of our big customers are in the EU but we are looking to emerging markets for additional opportunities
• 17%: The state of the EU economy means our focus is on other markets with better prospects
• 5%: We are not interested in selling to EU markets now or in the future
• 4%: Challenges in entering other export markets means we will continue to prioritise sales opportunities in the EU

I heard the anti-Christ will arise if we vote leave. It's true, the government has said so.

Being old enough to have lived through the ERM fiasco, multiple recessions and being an economist. There is no need to fear a Brexit.

Booh,how come those baby eaters from Brussels dare to do that ! Boooh

The EU guarantees a minuscule 3.5 months maternity leave on pay, where as in the UK its 6.5 months.

OMG you guys are really funny You think If UK leave EU then there will be no trade deal aka import/export will cease to exit and you will never have any trade agreement with Europe and in fact with rest of the world . You will be free to do trade agreement with major economies . well all major economies in the world are countries outside the EU .so to be in EUROPE UNION is not mandatory for economic progress

Unless the pollsters were considerably wrong even in comparison to last year's election, it seems Remain are going to win.

 

[jamal18]

Wasn't sure, but voted Remain. Looks like Remain are well ahead in the polls.

Welcome another million Rumanians!

Big Deal, we have 9 months...
A country can decide that without the EU meddling.

I was replying to the prevailing misnomer that some remain folks that have the EU gave us these rights.
Congratulations on your nine months.

Bro if you voted remain you shouldn't have a problem with mass immigration, which will now increase many times over. We just had the latest figures today of 500,000 people net came last year.

When is the decision due

Any idea where a small area will be flooded with migrants is going to turn country into third world country

If Europe needs some friendly Afghan refugee we will ship them out fed ex packs

Welcome another million Rumanians!

ROMANIA has been exposed as a lax back door to Britain, where corrupt officials sell EU citizenship for just £1,000.

A bombshell investigation has shown how crooks arrange false papers for Russian, Ukrainian and eastern European nationals so they can work in countries like the UK.
