The EU referendum: how will you vote?

I hope everyone reading this is registered and ready to vote in the referendum on the 23rd June about our membership of the European Union.  If not, get on here before 7th June:  https://www.gov.uk/register-to-vote!

Many people want more information. The impartial House of Commons library has compiled this to help inform the debate: https://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/research/eu-referendum/.

I will be voting to remain in a reformed EU. Over 3 million British jobs are linked to exports to the EU, so we would do best to keep our membership of the world’s largest single market. Being in the EU means jobs, simpler trade and lower prices too. Norwich families would be hit by an economic shock if the country voted to leave, and young people may take the worst hit of all, as sadly youth unemployment tends to be higher than older workers’. I also believe that we would do well to retain access to vital shared intelligence on crime and terrorism. On balance, I believe we are better off in the EU and I fear it’s a leap in the dark to vote out.

This is a referendum, so your view is just as important as mine. Check the facts, decide for yourself, and get ready to vote!
