I imagine you mostly correct with regard to the EU, however I'd say those talks about the future relationship with the EU, wont begin until the Exit talks have concluded.
My point however was more about the other trade deals across the globe that become void upon leaving?

I would imagine that discussions have been going on for years over different aspects of Turkey joining. This is probably just another one. Pretty BAU I would have thought.
Assuming properly conducted polls those should be quite sufficient sample size. Most EU polls in the UK use similar sample sizes, as do general election polls.
Do you have links? In general, I'm dubious of the validity of polls asking people whether they want something because such polls tend to get people answering 'yes' regardless of how important they actually think the issue is. You're right, of course, that things may have changed since the last Eurobarometer and it may be that there is more appetite for having a referendum than would be indicated by the positive feelings towards the EU it measures.
If the poll is conducted properly, and I can see no reason to believe it hasn't been, this isn't an issue. It's just a matter of properly controlling your sample so that they're representative.
Self identification and social classes. Hmm.
Someone with a law degree working in a law firm is not exactly what the average person associates with the term 'working class'. He is a pretty highly qualified young professional with a career to boot working in an industry that is very unlikely to be affected by immigration as part of the EU.
Do you think his question would have had the same connotation if he had phrased it with his actual occupation? As a law graduate working at a law firm...
The suggestion is that the premise of his question was again, not entirely transparent.
Anyone voting to stay in the EU should have a read through this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36599300
He's talking about renegotiations in the event of a Brexit but it doesn't sound much like the EU establishment have much appetite for any further reforms from the UK in any case. The cat is out of the bag, so much for having influence in the EU eh? Are we really going to cave in to threats from euro-bullies like Juncker?

I believe he said the UK was not going to be getting any special treatment. Too right too.
Nate
More like the UK is going to get even harsher rules imposed on us.
I assume you think it's equally desperate when Mr. Gove does it for Leave?
(And gets his facts wrong, it was 100 authors not 100 scientists and they weren't all German)
Ok, we sell so much to Europe. Once leave it will open up the world advantage. Do you think that all our sending trades will just stop. .? Of course not, they'll still want our goods. Think we will just cease trading ? The world goes round and we will get it sorted ASAP and the buyers and sellers with openly comply to get the deal done. Business is business. It's all about the money.

On the contrary he was talking about post-Brexit affairs.
He's also giving us the finger in that picture...
The remain camp played that card and Gove never said Nazi once in his interview. The premise of his example how the apparent experts are denouncing and belittling the country and its people by saying that we would be isolated and inept if we left.

"We have concluded a deal with the (UK) prime minister, he got the maximum he could receive, we gave the maximum we could give. So there will be no kind of renegotiation, nor on the agreement we found in February, nor as far as any kind of treaty negotiations are concerned."
How does that leave any room for renegotiation if we stay in the EU?
Social class is a very complex subject in the UK, and coming from 'working class roots' is very much a part of it, especially for the young.
Assuming his dad isn't lord something of the shire and he hasn't got a 500k allowance from the family trust - he's entitled to feel working class while working in a low paid administrative role (secretary basically) and unable to get his foot on the ladder of his chosen professional career.
If you think working class means physical labour and no qualifications fine, but it's really not for a great many millions in the UK.
Yes, absolutely correct. And given our strong demand we have from the world and Europe, I strongly believe such as , JCB, DYSON that we can improve on what we currently have. On terms we accept. That our representatives negotiate with no over influence. Apart from doing everything they can to get the uk the best deal possible.
I feel it's more likely that a remain result will mean faster and deeper integration. The result will be used to state that the UK has decided that EU integration is what it wants.
