2) We could decide who comes into our country

EU members must allow all EU citizens to enter their country and work without restrictions.
The right of free movement has allowed hundreds of thousands of Europeans to live and,
sometimes, work in Britain. In the 12 months ending in June 2016, an estimated 327,000 EU
nationals arrived in the UK while only 43.000 Britons migrates to Europe

Approximately 3 million Europeans have migrated to the UK. However, many of those 3 million
moved to Britain to claim state benefits without contributing into the system and then send this
money back to their own countries. This is possible because the British welfare system is not
contribution based unlike most of the countries in the EU, including Spain. They are also entitled to
free healthcare and education.

Now, to become a Spanish resident you have to have 7,ooo euros in the bank and an income of
8,400 euros a year or your residency will be denied.
This makes Britain a very good prospect for those who wish to get something for nothing.

The EU wants to grow even bigger. There are five countries trying to join now: Turkey, Macedonia,
Montenegro, Serbia and Albania. These countries are all poorer than Britain. If they enter, any
country that is richer than them will have to subsidise them.
Britain is already seen as the favourite destination for economic migrants and this would double or
even treble if these countries join. We must leave before we are drowned by a tsunami of economic
migrants.

3) We could make our own laws again

Some British laws are passed and implemented because of decisions made at an EU level.
Business For Britain, a pro-Leave group, reckoned that 65 per cent of new British laws are made in
Brussels. The House of Commons Library says that between 1993 and 2014, 231 Acts of Parliament
were passed because of EU membership, thats 24 % of all the laws passed.

The British government is not always able to change the laws in their own country. They have to ask
the EU if they can do it first. I believe that the British people voted for their government and
therefore the government should be the people making the laws, not some EU member of
parliament who has never even been to Britain

Many people may argue that the EU laws protect things like employment rights and climate change
regulations, but the fact of the matter is that Britain was one of the leaders in bringing about these
laws.

Many EU decisions are taken under qualified majority voting rules, where countries votes depend
on their size. Britain may be a wealthy country but it is small. That means we can be outvoted and
forced to accept decisions with which we disagree.
Britain is outvoted more often than any other country.
Between 2009 and 2015, Britain was on the losing side of 12 per cent of decisions.
The areas where Britain was most often outvoted included the EU budget and EU foreign and
security policy. This is not fair especially considering that, we pay the second largest contribution.
