Agreed, though I'm not convinced that many of those in the government are clued up enough to make a decision either!

Also agree with this: if we could see genuine benefits then I'm all for it, but its hard to imagine anyone extracting any positives out of the mess we have at the moment.

Yep. My knowledge is only based on a small sector of the aviation industry, but I know for sure that one of the above will withdraw from the UK in the event of Brexit. The regulatory changes are a massive shot in the foot as well.
On paper I can see how Brexit, if correctly executed, could have delivered some positives, but all it seems to have given thus far is massive uncertainty, a weakened pound and making the UK look rather silly.
