This is precisely the sort of drivel that seems to sustain the lower end as they blunder their way through to make a decision on matters they clearly ill-comprehend.
The day the UK votes to quit the EU in toto would see the £ fall by at least 30%. Period. Certainly it will be way less than the Euro and may just fall to parity with the US $ but most likely less.
Dumb as a troop of retarded bonobo apes with their brains trepanned through their nostrils.
The UK would of course cease to exist in its current state because Scotland would demand, and get, an immediate referendum to quit which would most undoubtedly be the decision this time around given their near universal demand to remain within the EU.
N.Ireland couldn't remain and unification would be an almost certainty.
The British electorate are not the brightest in the world and scarcely better than Alabama fuckwits. They seem to think that free trade would remain an option with the EU as a matter of right and that a departure would end migration but the truth of the matter is that most states would make unfettered trade utterly conditional upon freedom of movement.
The week before the Scots went to the polls a survey indicated that a majority would vote to quit the Union. That very day the £ fell by nearly 8%.
Quitting the EU would be equivalent to the banking crash in economic terms and the fallout quite dreadful. And for what? So that the Tory right - wing can exploit the working man without any interference from Brussels?
Britain by itself in the world would be utter shite not least because the country is host to a significant minority of welfare trash and the work ethic is pitiful.
Strong £ and a good banking system??? You're a fucking idiot. £800 billion QE to bail them out, the total collapse of the Halifax Bank and a state takeover of RBS? Total moron.
