Morning,
I have a few questions for out voters. I've had a look, tried to see if these had already been asked, but couldn't find anything. I've been trying to read as much of the arguments for both sides as I can, but small babies and in depth reading don't really go together. So far, I'm edging towards remain.
What actually happens if we leave? Let's take the immigration issue as one issue, just for the purposes of using an issue here, and this is obviously one that has been widely discussed. So, we vote to leave the EU. The out campaign in various places has focussed on us being able to do away with free movement in the EU, impose our own limits on immigration. But what say if at the next general election Labour win, and they decide to introduce legislation to keep immigration exactly as it is now i.e have free movement between us and other EU countries? And say that is successfully voted through Parliament? Therefore one of the issues that was so important to the leave campaign, and various promises made, hasn't changed at all. Same with money no longer given to the EU. There's nothing to say that will go to the NHS is there?
Could that actually happen? As I say, I'm edging towards remain, and the above hypothesis is partially why. It's all a big unknown if we leave isn't it? So therefore what are the factual reasons to vote leave? Surely it's all scenarios that may or may not happen? Whereas if we stay life will carry on as it is now? Apologies if this is a bit garbled, or my questions and comments appear stupid. I have a non-sleeping baby and am currently operating on three to four hours per night.
