we'd be fine in the eu because we aren't on the euro, which is what destroyed (was used to destroy) greece &c


if it went tits up we'd just be in the same state we are now

You wouldn't be able to put through the sort of reforms needed to get the poor back into a decent standard of living if every time you did some reform a pro-tier German outsourcing scumbag sent another team of exploited Polish workers across the channel to work for polish wages while he pocketed the difference on English wages. The other thing to consider is when the negative interest shitshow finally explodes the entire eurozone is going to poo poo, thats a bad time to be a country in the poo poo because you are sharing what little chance there is to recover. Getting out ahead of the pack and having your capitalist hegemony die in the rear end so you can recover before everyone else goes tits up is a good move.

idk If I would call a economy flooding the market with QE and still having such poor growth it has to issue negative yield bonds as kicking the poo poo out of anyone. Germany is completely and utterly hosed.

The fact that Putin so viscerally despises the Magnitsky Act is an excellent reason to go Maximum Magnitsky Act.

As the carbonised skeletons all over the imperial domain crumble to ash in the wind and the big walls go up around the UK the world breathes their first sweet breaths of freedom from out beneath the Anglo Saxons yoke.
The last thing anyone hears from the UK is Bojo winking and saying "terribly sorry, picanninnies but it was all just a bit of a laugh, eh wot?" Before he is cut in half by a mechanical isolation wall.

plus the EU is actually massively beneficial to the uk in particular, they got a shitload of concessions for joining in the first place and still bitched non-stop about being in it

this is why the EU isn't actually that bummed to see them leave

Fwiw internal polling was the only accurate polling in 2015. Not sure how it went in 2017 but judging from the reactions to the result I'm guessing it was off in the same way the public polls were
