The real reason why he, and others like him, try so hard to persuade us to remain in their empire is quite simple.
When we leave, so do our 'contributions'.
As we are, I think, the second biggest contributor to the EU's economy, that's quite a large loss to them.
How could they make up for the loss?
The only way I can think of is to demand the remaining members each pay more than they already pay. It could be, though, that some member countries are asked to pay more whilst others pay less. That wouldn't surprise me one little bit, and it would be interested to know what their plans are in this respect!
It gets better! If a second country then leaves, that's even more everyone else will have to pay in. Then a third, etc, etc.
Clearly, once we have left, everyone else will naturally be thinking "who's next?" and "am I going to be the last?", because the later that nations decide to leave, the more they will find themselves paying.
Our Brexit could well inaugurate a landslide!
