Well if you've waded through threads already then I'll point out a few of the lesser talked about things.
Yes I anticipate higher wages and more opportunities for our young people, both due to decreased competition for cheap readily available labour and the need to retain and train rather than hire and fire.
First off a Brexit vote would slowly see a rebalancing of the economy away from London and the Southeast and back towards our traditional model.
The likes of Bristol, South Wales, Liverpool and Glasgow became great cities on the back of their ports and trading links with the rest of the world. With the current focus on Europe it is the South East which benefits, whilst many of the other coastal areas have been left to decay and neglect, particularly with the utter destruction of our fishing industry.
In fact reading through the remain camps literature it strikes me that you have to put ,"In London" before most of their statements for them to be true. Often, "In middle class or above London".
The infrastructure is already there in most cases but we'd see less of London needs a new airport and power itself being spread across the country. Might take a couple of years for the real effects to kick in but newly emboldened and revived cities outside the SE would, I think, be wholly beneficial to our political as well as social landscape.
We'd see more opportunities in manufacturing, technical and heavy industry and less in services ( call centres to you and I) particularly as our small and medium sized companies gained traction in the emerging markets of the commonwealth. Rather then relying on foreign firms establishing themselves here to access the European market we would be establishing ourselves overseas in order to access their own markets.
This is vitally important, particularly with regards to India and the soon to rapidly grow economies in Africa. Companies would be exporting not just their wares but their talent too, looking for worldwide opportunities rather than hoping for external investment.
Decreased pressure on the NHS would see the vast sums invested finally going into preventative medicine rather than it having to constantly react to the latest crisis. Trusts would be able to plan based upon a relatively fixed number of people, rather than seeing their ten year projections for population growth outstripped within 2 years. I think we'd only realise just how much our free at the point of delivery service had cost us in retrospect, there are no cash registers in the NHS.
Give it a few years and we'd see less congestion on the roads, an export based economy showing large surpluses , stronger ties and cooperation with some old friends worldwide , the regions booming and some of the big businesses which currently dictate policy ( looking at you bankers) losing their influence and power.
We'd also see the old guard who currently man the remain phone lines ( Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron, Osbourne, Kinnock, Clegg etc) utterly discredited, that's the large majority of our current MPs.
Blanket denials that they'd ever supported the EU would bring hollow laughs ( as they currently do with regards the Euro) and a bloodbath at the elections. We'd see new blood, and not merely the Oxbridge set of PPE students, entering into politics and challenging old assumptions. Maybe even the fragmentation of the two largest parties, as frankly those on the side of project hope seem to have more in common despite their left or right leanings than they do with their supposed peers.
Our institutions, freed of the need to merely implement EU law, would reassert themselves as professional bodies would gain importance. The Unions too most likely. New dynamics in the skilled labour market would see opportunities arise as companies would need people willing to relocate worldwide as consuls for their interests abroad.
We'd still trade and cooperate with Europe, but from a position of strength and as good neighbors rather than reluctant tenants. As a proportion our trade with Europe would continue to decline and we'd slowly eat into the German advantage.
Finally I think we'd watch in horror as the internal contradictions in the EU were laid bare. A select few would follow us out as the southern states of the EU weighed down the productive parts. The protectionism and ugly politics would appear as foreign to us as it always should have.
at the idea that we'd have more wealth to invest in our young people, or that we could somehow compete with raw manufacturing power of commonwealth nations. What overwhelms NHS is our own ageing population & there's plenty more of them to come.
