What I see as facts:

• US could expedite trade for UK because it's the freaking UK, mommy.

• UK has one of the strongest currencies in the whole world, part of the IMF's purse. Stronger than China's Yuan even. So losing the Euro would be minimal unlike France or Germany.

• If US did expedite trade (and it could, the president could simply say a few words and it becomes policy) then the recovery period would be incredibly fast in comparison to any other EU country leaving.

• If the US decided to snub UK and follow through on it's threats (it does more times than not) - then UK would likely have 5-10 years of cutbacks.

• UK's economy in the hot mess the world's economy is still in isn't doing that bad. UK is set to take over as the 5th richest country in the world in the near future. Obviously such a massive change could unbalance that growth moreso than other unforeseen economic storms.

Rather the US wanted to or not, in my mind it now plays the biggest role because by simply not doing - it can have a negative trend on the British economy that's impossible to escape. On the flip side if what UKIP is saying is true and Obama is merely reading a script for Cameron then this is all a huge bluff.

And Borson Johnson said - the UK has not had a trade deal with the US in 44 years. Why? Because it's been part of the EU. But at the same time, I know some Brits took a big gulp when Obama said that because they know when it comes to money, Washington doesn't fuck around - ever.

Verdict: Who the fuck knows.

I just deeply feel that the British people take a great deal of time and proper research before they vote because the British economy is so strong, it can negatively or positively affect the rest of the Western world.
