This is one of the great lies and obfuscations that have been employed by the proponents of Brexit in the entirely spurious claim that refugees entering the Schengen area of the EU represented a threat to the UK borders.

A little just a little PERSPECTIVE...??

Last year 287,000* non-EU migrants entered the UK legally for a long-term stay of 12 months or more. This was again and as always, greater than the entire number of EU citizens entering the UK.

THis Non-EU migration was entirely under the control of the UK government, unproscribed by any EU treaty obligations.
But HEY.. we have a BIG problem with 7000 illegals in over 3 years arriving by ferry from Europe.. and Hey.. that all europes FAULT.
B*stards! I can see why some brexiteers are SO angry.

A report by LSE in 2013 found that crime actually fell significantly in areas that had experienced mass immigration from eastern Europe, with rates of burglary, vandalism and car theft down since 2004.
The research concluded that there was “no causal impact of immigration on crime…contrary to the ‘immigration causes crime’ populist view expressed in some media and political debate”.

thanks for your reply most on here don't backup their statements

Q,1. The loss of the free market within the EU
this is your opinion and not a fact would it not be cutting off the EU nose to spite their face as their is a trade deficit in their favour?

Q,2. The loss of the trading agreements with the EU which traces back to n. 1
it's not in the EU best interests to do this it's a matter of maths not opinion

Q, Scottland seceding
I do not see this happening as their is a crash in oil prices but I think it's more likely Northern Ireland would leave the UK Scotland is going no where they have a good deal being in the UK look into how many vote's the SNP got to seats ration compare with UKIP

Q,Lack of foreign investment in the country. Who wants to invest in a country where uncertainty rules over the law? As a matter of fact, who wants to invest in a country believing they will become the global trade leader with not even single country willing to give them the trading edge in the agreement?
am sure the UK will still attract investment and the uncertainty is short term

Q,What is there for England after Brexit besides chaos
I think a higher standard of living as we will have full control over the borders which will eventually ease the housing crisis and help with the education system/baby boom and also keep us out of any crisis the EU finds it's self in

Populism can deliver democracy and freedom, or it can bring tyranny, populism by itself it is neither good nor bad. To use the word populism without context is meaningless, yet it is expressed by many without regard for context as always meaning something evil. So let's use a different term that actually means something rather than regurgitate ill conceived, nothing meaning, social media buzz words.

Ignored

Populism has a very clear meaning. Populist ruler picks a single (could be the most important, could be fabricated) issue that people overwhelmingly feel afraid of, or hate, and make it the basis of his ideology. His answers/solutions to other questions/issues are later improvised on the fly to somehow support his basic raison d'etre. He bends and squeezes reality into this single reason frame succesfully at the beginning, but eventually he finds it harder and harder to provide appropriate answers and complexity of the real life eventually blow his primitive ideology up. War, launched at the right time, might give a populist a few extra years, but the sore end is inevitable, nevertheless.

I think their may be something lost in translation in English populist dose not mean the things your saying it means. here's the English language definition (support for the concerns of ordinary people) this is a sentence you might find it used in (it is clear that your populism identifies with the folks on the bottom of the ladder") it's not aggressive of a from of dictatorship

Ignored

Well there might be a difference between English and Slovenian meaning of this term, might be as well, that there's a difference between English and Continental meaning as is the case for many other terms (take for example phenomenology).

But that's not the point. The point is, that populists (pick better English word here) tend to oversimplify real world problems, trying to find simple solutions which are in accordance with their main intentions. And that's the biggest difference between populism and democracy, both of which claim to "support the concerns of ordinary people". Of course, not all populist movements are a form of dictatorship, mainly because they are never strong or enduring enough to become one.

totally agree. Dictionary definition of Populism "political ideas and activities that are intended to get the support of ordinary people by giving them what they want:"
Is that not the democratic way? where is the negative in that other than that which the media have tagged to it. Given that definition I am a populist and proud of it. It does not make me a racist etc blah blah blah. On that basis the Liberal party and any MP who votes against brexit are undemocratic and should be named so the constituencies know who they are.

What leads you into thinking that the EU will give the UK a better deal? Do you think all of the negotiators for the EU are braindead, mentally handicapped or somehow damaged? Who would give the UK in the right mind a better deal than they had in the EU. Its basically saying, "Yes, we want to give you a better deal since you left the EU because.......??????????".

Mate, the core concept of negotiations are carried through something called "the bargaining power of a party". The UK has no leverage to apply which would make the EU give the UK a better deal since their bargaining power in the negotiations has been diminished considerably. The UK is the one who needs the deal, not the EU.

Heavily curbed through WTO my friend. Not effective enough compared to the EU´s model.
What leads you into thinking that the EU will give the UK a better deal? Do you think all of the negotiators for the EU are braindead, mentally handicapped or somehow damaged? Who would give the UK in the right mind a better deal than they had in the EU. Its basically saying, "Yes, we want to give you a better deal since you left the EU because.......??????????".

At the risk of repeating myself again "So you are actually saying that VW Audi, BMW and Mercedes will walk away from 14% of their Worldwide market just to stick it to the Brits. I am sure that their shareholders will really see the value of "getting one over" on the Brits as being more important than profits for the companies. I'm sure that 750,000 German motor industry jobs at risk will happily forgo their jobs and income so that the EU can "stick it" to the Brits. I don't think so "

The EU 27 will answer to Germany. No cherry picking, the UK will negotiate a new agreement and not renegotiate the old one. Neither party will want to hurt the other

And as for Scotland, it is in the red to the tune of 9.8% of GDP. Official figures from the previous year suggest Scotland spent £62 bn but raised just £45 bn — an annual subsidy from the English taxpayer of at least £17 bn. Accountancy firm PWC warned that Scotland was dangerously close to falling into an outright recession, as it downgraded growth forecasts north of the border. I'll let you form your own opinion
