It would be interesting to get an independent assessment of EXACTLY how much it would cost us to pull out of the EU. A bottom line figure, not swayed by political dogma.

Until we have that we can't possibly have a referendum, because people would be voting on the wrong premise ie politics rather than economics.

I suspect we'd get a shock if we saw the cost of getting out of all the commitments we've entered into. All the cosy quid pro quo arrangements with different countries on health care, residency, etc etc.

By all means leave the EU and send all those johnny foreigners back from whence they came.......

.....and prepare the reception camps for all the ex pat Brits who will flood back into the country when they get expelled from where they've settled!
