He starts with selectively providing the one statistic that makes it seem the UK has little trade with the EU.
He should have showed the number of UK businesses that trade with the EU against the total number of businesses that deal with foreign trade in general. Every country has lots of local businesses.
Look here for how much of British trade is actually with the EU.
https://www.uktradeinfo.com/Statistics/OverseasTradeStatistics/Pages/EU_and_Non-EU_Data.aspx

The great question is, seeing as about 50% of British international trade is with the EU.

As long as you guys are in the EU, people might prefer to import from Britain over China because of the ease and the lack of taxes on importing from within the EU.
Leaving the EU will have you compete against China, gl.

It's also really stupid to believe that leaving the EU will suddenly put a complete stop to all immigration from EU countries.
>>
>>60789394
*The great question, seeing as about 50% of British international trade is with the EU, is how much this trade benefits from the EU free trade.

The EP has no power and the executive isn't elected, which is obviously a problem. On the other hand, immigration isn't hurting the country's economy nearly as much as you think, regardless of whatever effect it may be having on "the national identity" or whatever.

Leaving would probably be a disaster, but the EU has to change somehow or other.

This is not about facts, we're dealing with emotions.

I don't think it works here.

Many people don't know how the EU works and what it does.

Politicians are elected on the national level, so it makes sense they blame all the bad on the EU and take the credit for all the good.

Young people are generally for remain, but it's hard to mobilise for status quo. The elderly who are generally afraid of change want to leave and they're going to show up on the ballot box.

They are indeed afraid of change, but this change is personified in the EU - globalisation and multiculturalism.

50% of Britain's international trade is with the EU because the EU doesn't allow Britain to sign trade agreements with any other countries. A UK outside of the EU can sign tailored, bilateral agreements accommodating the UK's specific circumstances with the United States, with Canada, and with every other sovereign state on Earth (i.e. every state that isn't an EU member). Brexit isn't closing the door to Europe, it's opening the door to planet Earth.

well, yea thats the point. We make agreements as a bloc of 27 countries of 500 million, rather than on our own. And if we leave we loose access to the single market and the 50 or 60 trade agreements the EU has in place
Also, they're by far our largest export and our neighbors, of course we're going to focus trade on them.

>>60794271
It can't make free trade agreements that go around EU protectionism and would practically make other states part of the EU. It can make pretty much any kind of agreement that doesn't compromise the EU economy.

Negotiating new trade deals for the UK will take a very long time, and will have lower priority for nations than negotiating deals with the EU. You're not opening up anything.

Plus you do want to trade with the EU, we're close and wealthy. You simply can not move all your trades to non-EU countries, and thus will still be subject to most of the EU's rules in anything you produce that you might possibly want to export to the EU.
Only when you're not part of the EU, you don't have any say in those rules.
>>
>>60794432
because Americans occasionally like to buy shit from the UK, and British occasionally like to buy shit from the USA. Tariffs do not mean your economy is completely cut off, I've owned cars made in Britain and I've only traveled to Canada twice. British shit typically costs a little more, but its better made than NAFTA crap we get from Canada and Mexico.

Well since you say the EU can't produce decent trade agreements, what EU trade treaties do you find deficient?

Yes 60-40 is massive. 60% in politics is quite a big lead. When if you went by the polls, it should be UNDER 50%. It's a massive discrepancy.

additionally, the agreement between China and Switzerland is clearly imbalanced:

>The bilateral Free Trade Agreement
concluded in 2013 between China and
Switzerland comes into force on 1 July
2014. Switzerland will abolish all customs
duties on imports of Chinese industrial
goods. C
>China is abolishing or reducing the
large majority of its customs duties on
imported Swiss industrial goods, in whole
or in part, either when the treaty comes
into force or after a transitional period
(usually 5 or 10 years, but, in some cases
12 or 15 years).

This is the nature of negotiations between a large economy and a much smaller one, the larger party does not give free trade from the kindness of their own hearts. The EU is clearly in a much stronger position in trade deals than the UK is alone.

The exchange rate has been shitty since boris cunt johnson endorsed the leave party, I've been holding out and hoping they will stop this madness so the exchange rate would rise...but they only got worse. If I take it out now I would be fucking myself in ass if they vote to remain eventually.

>>60798606

they wont close it but you will have checkpoints back. I remember them as a kid going on summer holiday to Donegal, it took hours to pass them and you were interrogated and bullied by the army before they let you pass. Going to Donegal we had to pass the checkpoints twice and it was horrendously tense and intimidating with rifles being pointed in your face.

It literally is not. Massive means fucking 80-20 or more, not 60-40.

60-40 is close.

This isn't politics. This is the betting market.

The betting market is saying there is a 40% chance of Britain leaving the EU.

They were interested in both.

>quantity doesn't say a thing about quality

It doesn't. But quantity has a quality of its own.
Usually once you get a trade treaty, you can renegotiate later for a better one.

It's always the initial barriers to trade that are hard to break, and the EU has proven that it cannot negotiate trade deals in a timely fashion.

It is 2016 for god's sake.

The UK has a separate free movement agreement with Ireland. It won't change unless your government changes it (or the EU makes you change it)
>>
>>60798702
I've clearly stated that if you can read.

After 68 years, the EU (ECC) has a grand total of only 25%-30% of the world economy in trade deals. And 23% of that is the EU.

No China trade deal
No US trade deal
No Argentina
No Brazil
No Japan
No SK
No Russia
No India
No Nigeria
No Mexico

The EU has fewer trade deals than the heavily protectionist USA.

How exactly are these deficient though? For instance I've explained how China has not removed tariffs on many Swiss exports, and for those it is removing tariffs there is a delay period of up to 15 years. Meanwhile Switzerland has had to remove all tariffs on all Chinese exports immediately.

>They were interested in both.

A country of 1.4 billion is not especially concerned with the fishing industry of a country of 300,000 people, I can assure you. This was about the Arctic council.

So why doesn't America and the EU join together because no we are totally going to be more powerful?

Maybe because 29 fucking countries have different interests and are unlikely to all agree to pass a trade deal.

I used to have a good thing going with currency exchange scams since I have bank accounts in both Ireland and the UK so I could change money without any exchange fees, its like ghetto FOREX. I think I'll just wait until june 23rd and then run the bank if they vote to leave, its a gamble but could pay off big.
>>
>>60799027

It takes two parties to make a trade deal, this could just as easily be a reluctance on the part of other countries, nor is this to say that the UK by itself will be in any better position. I'm sure the UK could make lots of trade deals outside th EU, but the UK is clearly at a disadvantage against the US and China if it is negotiating alone.

i mean, if you think there's a good chance you can pull out your money quickly enough in case the gamble goes wrong, then it's much less of a gamble in the first place

>>60799379

Ok, I can see the logic of your stance. Major trade agreements with the US and Japan for instance are however progressing, so it's more a matter of slower negotiations on trade deals than a permanently limited number in comparison to independent UK negotiation.

The exchange rate is currently 1 = 1.26, back in december it was 1 = 1.45. If they leave the exchange rate could go 1 = 1 or lower, but if they stay it could go back to 1.40 or even higher.
Any financial advice is directly tied to the likelihood of the UK leaving the EU and hence the exchange rate, since it is so close nobody can really so what the best course of action is at this point in time.

No. The majority of people from outside the EU who are coming here are skilled and contribute economically because otherwise they wouldn't get a visa.

That said, perhaps some good will come out of it. The EU needs big changes, and those only ever happens after big events. Maybe you leaving will be the catalyst for institutional innovation, or maybe it will completely disgregate the union. In any case, change.

You'd be surprised. Many governments are very much against how the EU is run right now. The fucking bureaucrats in Bruxelles are powerful, but the source of that power are the national governments. I'm not saying it's gonna become more democratic, but perhaps the balance of power might shift away from the commission and towards the council.

An union in which shit actually gets done. An union in which one member can't rule over everyone else, which seems to be what you brits want.
You have representation, but you throw a bitch fit everytime the majority goes against you. Which is often, since you are uncooperative (in that you are the nimby par excellence) and left leaning (in that you take moral positions left and right, but then you're nimby and you don't wanna deal with the consequences, expecting others to pay for it).
Take immigration. You don't want to let us close down everything because poor niggers, but then you don't want to contribute to take them in. You're as cuntish as it gets, and are the last nation that should complain about EU prepotency.

If you an vote to leave a "Union", what exactly makes your Union a real Union? USA went to war to preserve our Union.
