I take your point. If we vote to stay, we will indeed probably get whatever TTIP deal is on the cards. And that would not be good. Especially as you say that it's all being done so secretively, god knows what's being agreed.

But I fear that'd be throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I fear that if we leave it'll be worse for the ordinary person in this country for lots of reasons ie erosion of workers rights and human rights (hard won stuff). And that if we lose all those existing trade connections there'll be a recession again and that means a good excuse for even more austerity, even more cuts to the health system and education and anything that keeps this place civilised.

And voting to leave wouldn't stop the government signing their own ttip style agreement, surely?

anyway that's my take on it.
