It is dangerous to assume that, by putting at risk UK’s access to unique information sharing and other operational arrangements in the EU, the country would become safer from terrorism. I share the opinion of recent heads of MI5, MI6 and GCHQ that the reverse is true.It is dangerous to assume that, by putting at risk UK’s access to unique information sharing and other operational arrangements in the EU, the country would become safer from terrorism.

In my job I see how the European arrest warrant, the Schengen information system and Europol, for example, have become increasingly important to the UK in protecting its people from terrorism. Alongside our work with US partners and the intelligence community the EU has become vital for Britain’s security interests.In my job I see how the European arrest warrant, the Schengen information system and Europol, for example, have become increasingly important to the UK in protecting its people from terrorism.

I have not heard this, but I have heard figures on the Leave said say they think the government is trying to use the voter registration mess to “extend the franchise”. Leave figures think that at most 50,000 people were unable to register to vote last night and that the government is dragging out the registration process for another 48 hours, and giving it maximum publicity today, to get more young people to register. Young people are more likely than old people to be unregistered, and more likely than old people to vote Remain if they do register.I have not heard this, but I have heard figures on the Leave said say they think the government is trying to use the voter registration mess to “extend the franchise”.

I’ve just watched the former environment secretary, Owen Paterson, make a speech which, according to the advance billing, would “tear apart the EU’s record on the environment”. That was a tough brief, but he did his best, arguing that the EU imposed too many “one size fits all” green remedies on countries. He was scathing about the idea that a vote for Remain was a vote for nature.I’ve just watched the former environment secretary, Owen Paterson, make a speech which, according to the advance billing, would “tear apart the EU’s record on the environment”.

It was certainly a wide-ranging speech, taking in the great crested newt (Paterson says these are not threatened in the UK and so don’t need protection here), South Georgia (he sees the island’s environmental policies as a future model for Britain) and the Pitcairn Islands (the UK has recently created the world’s largest marine reserve around them).It was certainly a wide-ranging speech, taking in the great crested newt (Paterson says these are not threatened in the UK and so don’t need protection here), South Georgia (he sees the island’s environmental policies as a future model for Britain) and the Pitcairn Islands (the UK has recently created the world’s largest marine reserve around them).

I seemed to be the only member of the media there, so it fell to me to ask Paterson whether he could be trusted as a self-styled champion of the environment given the chilly reaction from environmental groups to his time as environment minister. He insisted this was unfair, arguing that some of the bigger green organisations get EU funding and so are hardly neutral.I seemed to be the only member of the media there, so it fell to me to ask Paterson whether he could be trusted as a self-styled champion of the environment given the chilly reaction from environmental groups to his time as environment minister.

Let me tell you straight, as someone who’s an outright eurosceptic, leaving the European Union would be downright irresponsible.I’m the first to say Europe isn’t perfect.

There are two things that such investors hate most: a prolonged period of uncertainty and definitely losing an advantage they have long enjoyed. Leaving the European single market would produce exactly those two things. With fifteen days to go to the referendum, there is no sign of any agreement, consensus, worked-up proposal, clear scenario or even coherent idea about what we would try to negotiate if we left the EU, let alone how we would succeed in it.There are two things that such investors hate most: a prolonged period of uncertainty and definitely losing an advantage they have long enjoyed.

The second is that Germany and the rest of the EU would have no incentive to strike an easy trade deal with any nation leaving the union because of the attraction it might hold for others. And some countries would have every interest in using the opportunity to persuade international businesses located in Britain, such as in financial services, to move their operations or headquarters.The second is that Germany and the rest of the EU would have no incentive to strike an easy trade deal with any nation leaving the union because of the attraction it might hold for others. And some countries would have every interest in using the opportunity to persuade international businesses located in Britain, such as in financial services, to move their operations or headquarters.
The third point is that once the UK has served notice under article 50 of our intention to leave the union, the treaties provide for two years to negotiate the arrangements for withdrawal, extendable only by unanimous agreement. There would be far greater pressure on the UK, because of all the uncertainties surrounding investment decisions, to conclude the negotiations within the two years than there would be on the rest of the EU. As everybody knows, even from buying a house or a car, the side under the greatest time pressure is in the weakest negotiating position.The third point is that once the UK has served notice under article 50 of our intention to leave the union, the treaties provide for two years to negotiate the arrangements for withdrawal, extendable only by unanimous agreement.
