Now, however, the way i see it is that we've had enough commentary, expert >opinion, discourse and so-on to show that it all looks pretty clear it's economic >suicide to leave.>

I sometimes feel like somewhere I must have missed a massive section of commentary / debate. How / where did all these people pick up that it would be a good idea to leave?

It's more emotion than facts judging by a lot of comments.

A few ppl have reasons such as EU expansion which yes, if that bothers you is a problem. Others really don't like the neocon the EU can be, and therefore want to leave. Wishful thinking, but a reason.

But there's a lot of "take our country back" sentiments.
And a lot of "these experts know nothing" anti intellectualism.

AKA the average voter ;)
