For someone whom claims it’s irrelevant you are pushing hard for people to do your research for you.

Following a link earlier which I initially doubted but true enough, Google seems to be struggling a bit with certain searches 🤷‍♂️🤔

Moonbat, tin foil 🤪!!! Nope

But that's still not an answer to the simple question which I asked

Well there is that, but another example would be construction workers. 

I remember my brother saying that they had to dramatically up the wages of construction workers on their engineering site just to keep them as the exodus of European builders meant there was a serious shortfall on the housing developments.

 

Brickies weren't exactly on minimum wage before hand!

This a bloody good thing though! Paying British people a genuine wage they can thrive and not just survive on has to be a positive surely? 
 

To think you’re actively wanting to keep the working man in the gutter is quite astounding.

Do some research rather than just repeating the question again and again and again and again. That’s what I’d do if no one could be arsed to take me on. It’s probably because you said it was irrelevant to you etc etc hence people treat it as such.

Not at all. But to have to jack up the wages of construction workers already on £50k plus, often by £10k or more, is only going to fuel inflation.

 

Andy, the difficulty is that your perspective is warped by your income. For the great majority of people, their wages are far far lower and they manage OK. If everyone was on your level of income, then inflation would be catastrophic and the UK wouldn't be competitive in any market. 

 

And also, wages can only go up if economies are made elsewhere. How else would they be paid for except for with end product price rises? I am sure that your average Brexiteer didn't vote leave in order to increase their cost of living.

But I'm not talking about those countries you have mentioned I'm talking about the United Kingdom and how we've been better off after Brexit, as i say to me it's irrelevant whether we are in or out i just want to know what have been the positives 

I don’t really care what you’re talking about to be honest. 🤷‍♂️ There’s a bigger picture out there and for someone who claims to be impartial you sure have a heavy inclination. 
 

To intentionally ignore the fact that two European Nations that chose to remain outwith the EU and have lower inflation rates and prosper greatly without the need to be within the EU shows there’s no actual need to be within the EU and your choosing to claim this is irrelevant is quite telling.

 

Anyway, I’ve replied to BJ regarding some very real benefits to leaving the EU. 
 

And have a look back through the various threads for others. Stop expecting to be spoon fed. 🙄

You won’t get one.

 

You’ll get prevarication, obfuscation and if all else fails they’ll wheel out Covid.

I thought it was a very simple question but I'm still none the wiser, surely those are just personal opinions being expressed rather than facts
