Ermm, just clear this one up for me please, I'm afraid in my simple mind I don't quite understand such complicated issues.

Brexit argument goes that as a member state of the EU we (UK) aren't able to set up free trade deals with the rest of the world. However, while in the EU Italy, Poland, Austria and Hungary will be able to set up free trade deals with an independent UK. Not sure I follow that.

I must say that article written by the Brexiteer website has convinced me totally what a splendid bunch of fair minded liberal benevolent egalitarians the Brexiteers are, compared to those awful bigoted xenophobic narrow minded exclusionist Remainers. Bravo. (Oops, sorry that's not an English word, is it?)
