We all know this and that about leaving for criminals and business but how will it effect truckers, will it mean we can leave the cpc thing and more jobs will come from tighter immigration. Bit confused 
are you immigrant in disguise?
are you in competition as to who can post the most threads on here?
Nothing will happen, Brussels will find some obscure clause or ruling that will keep us in meaning we’d have to take it to the EU court which will drag on for years thus keeping us in limbo.
Depends if we re-route all our trade routes via places like Rotterdam, Zeebrugge, etc. We could do that right now in theory…
We never joined the European Union. I remember voting in the election about joining the Common Market.
Nothing will happen.
It’s quite possible that the UK could manage.
We have farms for food. Gas,coal and other forms of power.
As for building stuff it would take time but the UK could manufacture and produce anything it needs.
We could even make room by throwing out everyone that doesn’t really belong here.
It would be taking steps back but that’s what happens when you get caught in a marriage, when you break up you can lose so much that you have to build again learning from mistakes

+1 (and a few more +++++ for good measure !!) common market = free trade agreement, nowt else ! definitely not selling our soul to the brussels mafia …
Personally I’m in favour of staying in but agree we should be hunting a better package, the UK economy is huge and powerful in the european scale of things anyway.

And under the regime of one Ted Heath, The EEC Common Market was supposed to have been some sort of 'economic 'utopia ’ Correct me if I’m wrong, but did’nt the UK have a referendum 3 years after first joining this fat euro-club circa. 1972?.

+1+1. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I would think anything to do with the regulations with truck driving and operating trucks will remain the same, including the dcpc.

Did you not have a Yes saltire flying over your boat? A bit ironic that you’re against Brussels yet the Nats are braying for a separate EU referendum from England if England votes no to the EU.The SNP’S stated aim is closer ties to Europe

Agreed. And get it wrong on the national basis y’all be shafted the UK rate… UK bureaucracy
style…
I doubt a lot will change, might lose the WTD, but also might lose the right to 28 days holiday a year and being paid average hours including overtime for holiday pay. The DCPC also exists in Norway and Switzerland, and I doubt we’d see a removal of EU drivers hours regs, as many non EU countries are using the same regs under the AETR regs.
Maybe the cabotage regs will change, but I doubt we’ll see a massive reduction in EE registered trucks on the UKs roads, unless the economy crashes so badly we don’t import anything.
I also doubt we’ll see less EE drivers in UK registered trucks, as when they can’t get enough UK driver to do the job for the money the industry will go to the government and say that a driver shortage will increase wages and therefore shop prices and lead to inflationary pressures in the economy and unhappy middle class voters, when they have to pay more for their sun dried tomatoes and Virgin olive oil.
I think those that run into Europe will face a bit more paperwork, but maybe it won’t be full carnets, more simple forms needing to be stamped at the ports.
But basically if we leave the EU most hard working average people will struggle to pay bills and taxes and the wealthy will become even richer and avoid paying tax.
However if we stay in the EU, most hard working average people will struggle to bills and taxes and the wealthy will become even richer and avoid paying tax.
It will mean carp and swan levels will return to normal.

If we had the sort of government in this country that we could trust, who would put the wellbeing of the many rather than the few as their top priority, who would invest in health, education, transport, defence etc, then we might see some benefits. With the sos that we’ve had for the last umpty-ump years, nothing will change, cabotage regs will continue to be ignored, everyone apart from a very small few will continue getting poorer, and the refugee / migrant problem will be just the same as before. Most of the problems in this country are down to the UK themselves, rather than the EU.
