Re: One more try - UK referendum
Leave.
It's a constitutional thing.
I consider 'us' to be the people of the UK, and so i am willing to submit to common governance derived from the will of those people.
Economics isn't really a consideration, yes there will be a short term hit, but a low regulation low tax britain will grow faster long term.
Immigration isn't really an issue, to the limited degree that i care it is because we actively discriminate against commonwealth countries.
What i care about is:
Fiscal policy - low and simple tax.
Regulation - low and straightforward.
Foreign policy - we decide when to spill blood and treasure
Law and justice - the supremacy of parliament, and a supreme court that acts only to make sure parliament acts within its own laws
The EU is institutionally incapable of decisive action, it is unfit for purpose, and even if it was i'm unsure i'd like what decisive action they would take:
More complex tax
More byzantine regulation
Less interventionist FP, and less interest in Defence
Less emphasis on Common Law and more on statute adjudicated by the ECJ
