Just hearing arguments against the Government domestic policies for last 40 years. With politicians unwilling to admit consequences or explain that ‘bugs are features’. Instead see politicians riding the populist wave unwilling to address the root causes. Group of people who feel things are bad enough they are willing to risk it all. Unwilling to even see that actions they take would cause more pain not help.
My best advice if you care enough about these issues get involved in politics. Start doing something to help address any problems you have not just complaint on voting days. Need to take this advice myself get in contact with my local labour party activists once again. Make Government accountability your main goal instead of blaming anybody for the problems.
Sovereignty argument
Legal definition of Parliamentary sovereignty, from that definition United kingdom has full sovereignty. Argument is lost before it started unless you wanted a new legal definition. Confirming United Kingdom still holds the unlimited veto powers.
Definition leave campaigners are using is inaccurate, wrong and spreading lies. Further this point any trade agreements or membership of international organizations would reduce sovereignty. Emotional isolation argument pretending to be about sovereignty. Shifting the blame from domestic executive to European legal executive. Welcome to explain how membership of the European union is wrong but World Trade Organization is fine. Could do the same with any institution .
What is the real intent behind anybody claiming European laws was overruling the UK legal system?
How come the domestic executive has not taken actions against problems reported in newspapers?
Could it be that newspapers are reporting inaccurate information to increase sales? Failing in any duty to inform the public and educate them. Causing a recession is not worth it for powers we already have.
No veto over Turkey joining the EU.
Evidence points to that being incorrect and inaccurate.
Immigration argument
Evidence suggests that low skilled immigration, low skilled workers suffer an negative impact on wages. Much debate over the impact various studies have shown very minor impact for workers. Government fiscal policy has caused much greater decline in real wages -10% for almost all groups. Impact from immigration on semi/low skilled workers 0.4%. Based on the evidence United Kingdom does not have major amount of low immigration. Evidence shows that on average migrants have higher level of education compared to UK natives. Age wise migrants are younger pay in more taxes due to taking up median to high skilled jobs on average. Younger workers who come here pay taxes using little to no public services. Evidence does not back up the general assumption that immigration has been terrible. Reducing immigration would decrease the overall tax base increasing general tax rates. Negative impact on low end wages is reduced due having a bigger working population paying taxes.
David Cameron pledge to drive immigration down was deeply unrealistic. Listen to leave campaign your hear they want to increase immigration from outside of the EU. Nations which have points based system have seen major inflows of people. Vote leave want to increase immigration but decrease it?
Cost for driving down immigration is not worth it given the economic cost. Instead the blame policy is designed to avoid criticism for policy failures many have supported but caused great pain to the poor. Social bits of policy we can do help people cope with immigration.
Infrastructure argument
Domestic executive has decreased spending with general population aging and increasing in size. Aging population puts far more strain on infrastructure compared to migrants. Fallacy to blame this on migrants if anything poor planning from politicians.
Shared benefit
Evidence to support the European Union membership given us great number of benefits. Helped make the United kingdom economcy far more competitive reduced regulation across Europe. Trade barriers have declined freedom of movement has allowed travel to be expanded. Reason why nobody wants us to leave due to being own benefit and their benefit. Same reasoning could be applied once again to any global institution no campaign for us to leave?
Experts
Some of the Experts who wanted us to join the Euro are supporting leave. Vast majority are against Brexit, trying to silence experts who disagree with you is silly.
Promises
Both sides have made promises but some won’t admit the truth. Immigration won’t decline with Brexit or remain won’t decline period. False promise if you believe that leaving would reduce it. Incredible rubbish has been provided from both sides.
Budget cuts
Blame lies with the Government for cutting public services, not immigration. This what happens when you have a fixed fiscal policy so much for the household budget. Cut backs have caused the strain in public services not slow population growth.
