text: We are a global market now with the internet and cannot escape this fact. People decrying the EU forget that years back everything had 'customs charges' as in items to/from the USA. If I buy an item from the US I get a handling charge to check for customs duty even if a few pounds is added. There is no redress as the 'appeal' is done by the people levying the charge so learnt 'Never buy from the USA' unless mega cheap . If we leave the EU this will return. We are an island so many goods are sent in with varying price differentials to mainland Europe and America. Prices will rise, property will drop about a third we will face the coming problems from global warming ourselves and the fact much of our fuel is coming from Russia and other countries. Grow up look at the size and position of our country and think if we are alone how do we survive we are not Switzerland in the middle of the land mass. Stop living thinking the world is pink on an Atlas and face reality we are a small island with many many fewer problems than some countries be grateful for what we have and work with reality... The mass immigration at present is financial brought on by wars in Africa and Arabia, many will return as contrary to many Britain's streets are not paved in gold but empty litter cartons.
