Then there's also increasing productivity per person by encouraging business to invest in research and tech (and they will when the glut of cheap EU labour dries up). In this way, there's more real wealth - per person - than swamping the UK at a rate of a million extra migrants, every few years, and the negative social costs that come with that.
Blowing each other to smithereens is really stupid, yet the threat of mutually doing just that was enough to maintain peace in Europe. Sometimes the threat of something has far more utility that actually doing it.

So why did we get lumbered with, for instance, the working time directive, which the UK was dead set against? In terms of "rule taking" twas ever thus.
All my savings are in ISAs and not paying tax in the UK (nor in Belgium actually, due to the scheme I'm on to encourage overseas scientists to come here). So nope, you get nothing from me (actually I still pull out as I have lifetime ISAs )
