In - for many reason but here are just a few:
I don't believe we have anyone in Parliment who is capable of getting us the deals we deserve. I believe the EU will trade with us but do I trust Boris or Nigel to do this and take views of others...No.
I live in Cornwall where we receive 60 million in EU funding.
My husbands job only exsists because a college in London was given a 30 million EU grant to bring their IT infrastructure to Cornwall creating 100s of good and well paid jobs.
We have solid relationships with the EU.
We encouraged the Scots to stay because 'We are stronger together' I feel really bad for them today.
The money we are 'apparently' going to get back each week isn't enough to resolve the NHS issues,schools etc. It cost over £115 billion to run the NHS alone. This '350m a week' needs to help us improve our schools, our benefit system and our NHS, I think thats a blooming longshot.
Everything is so accessible these days that are bargaining tools (what we have to offer) is limited.
The road works in Cornwall are funded by the EU.....so that is going to be interesting.

Staying had its perks and leaving had its perks but overall I felt we had more perks in then we did out. That's why I dont feel it is necessary to slay others who voted out we all have our reasons right . Just because I dont agree doesnt mean I dont respect it.

I feel the government handled this very badly. There should be an independant judicator who advises what the facts are and what is jibberish because lets face it both sides installed rose tinted glasses on their facts.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend xx
