We look backwards, look at now and look forward. Facts, evidence, projection. Beats the previous lives of Prison Service and teaching (although only just in the second instance.
Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune) |

Nobody said there would be £350 million per week for the NHS. It said "Let's fund our NHS." Who has said immigration might not fall at all from the leave camp? I don't recall Boris, Gove, Leadsom saying it. May hasn't said it. Who has? Farage has said the £350m was a mistake. I guess partly if we did get the EEA option then we'd still have to pay, just have no say. Daniel Hannan from the Leave campaign has said it might not have any effect on migration, as the prevailing view that the value of access to the free trade area is perecieved to be important that having no freedom of movement.

How is he going to pay for it? How are we going to pay for Brexit, that's what I'm curious to know. All these negotiations - with the EU and others - are going to be expesneive. Let alone the cost of finagling the law. And the government's already pushing an austerity ideology.

So how have you used these facts in relation to something that has never happened before and therefore has no previous model to refer to and decide that our best long term option was to remain?

If there was virtually no change then I would like to see a couple of things. 1. No requirement to pay for bailouts and other EU mess, whether publicly or secretly (Cameron & Osbourne) 2. Able to agree new trade deals outside of the EU with the growing markets that make up 55% and growing of our exports. 3. Looser ties with the EU that would make no. 2 more profitable and none of the cost of no. 1 which is there to keep the whole thing together and make mainly the Germans and then the French better off. Leave. It'll be finished with a decade or so with the insane levels of debt and unemployment in Southern Europe.

I'd be interested to see projections that were made on anything other than recent historical facts and present day evidence. Hang on, I guess that's exactly what I did see from the Leave Camp ;-) It's not hard to plug in expected exchange rate change ranges and employment sentiment projections from Eu-facing companies in the event of either an In or Out vote. That's what empirical data and up to date client insight is for. The models spit out results based on different variables. If the models have got it wrong, then that's actually a really good thing for the country (and a pretty bad thing for the programmers).

Models are only as good as the programmer and the data you enter into them. This particular model must have been subject to a lot of guess work. Forgive my skepticism.
