This is where people on the Brexit side are so utterly deluded , companies who want to trade with the rest of the world without EU rules will base themselves in Asia where production is cheaper, education is increasingly higher, land is cheaper, ports and roads are modern and more efficient, airports new, broadband is 5x quicker, you are nearer to all the growing markets in the world and rules are easier.If we left the union then more companies would move here; they would no longer have to follow the EU regulations when they trade with the rest of the world, whereas their still Europe based competitors would have to follow all the EU regulations for all aspects of their business.
Making it cheaper to move to the UK to do business, imagine a UK that could control its own regulations and negotiate its own trade deals. Winner.
If Britain is exiting because it thinks it can compete and beat China , Korea etc then the Brexit idea is worse than I thought much much worse. I hadn't even considered that people were thinking and believing that and if so how little they must know of the market conditions and infrastructures across the globe.
If that's a serious idea then you better up immigration 5 fold and get labour from cheaper countries as there is no way that the UK will beat Asia on education, technology and infrastructure now so it will have to be cheaper labour and better access to Europe (sorry scrap the latter)
