        We have to vote with hearts, not with our purse strings. Any temporary recession can be overcome eventually.

        The referendum result is not legally binding, so may as well go with instinct.

        Which, like most claims involving numbers on both sides, is inaccurate. Less than 5% of UK population is from EU.
