Okay, so how would things change if we left?
You'd still have people making decisions for you, even if you didn't vote for them: It would just be on a national Government level as it always has been, rather than a Europe-wide scale.
As Col has said, the country would be massively worse off financially, which will hit you directly in the pocket. Do you want to spend another few grand a year just to be independent, when nothing practical has changed? There would be EVEN MORE cutbacks, not less. No different to when Scotland wanted out, the financial cost alone would've been enormous.
As long as you understand that's what will happen, then that's fine. I think it's madness, but if you understand the consequences of your decision then fair enough. My point isn't that your choice is wrong, my point is it's misinformed and you're actually going to end up with the opposite to what you're after.
