Indeed it could, but generally speaking over the past two decades, of the less-than-50 times a new government motion has to have been amended in order to comply with things like Human Rights, Ecology Protection etc, the motion itself had been a vastly unpopular one to begin with, and EU mediation made the motion less unattractive. The less-than-50 figure is important because it’s compared to a figure close to 10,000 where we’ve been able to make new motions with no intervention whatsoever. So the EU over the last few decades had an interference percentile of 0.5%. Oh no, my poor precious independent sovereignty. 
Undoubtably having local and national industry is a brilliant thing, to be encouraged and new development welcomed. Unfortunately, regardless of our status on the global market, our industries began declining long before the common market was a thing. Steel has been in trouble since the 1960s, coal since the 1970s, heck I don’t know what we’re going to do about agriculture because 76% of farms in the UK are maintained by grants from the EU. Without them, heritage farming is bust. Without them, oilseed and cereals are bust. Without them, dairy farming is bust. The only farming sectors in actual profit are sheep farms for wool, pig farms for meat, and cow farms for meat.
We need energy industry revival; the current government scrapped all plans for that, not the EU. We need masonry; the government killed the apprenticeship scheme that was keeping the mason and bricklaying industry afloat. We desperately need people with basic joinery, plumbing and electrical skills; again, apprenticeships are dead and last year the price for the annual electrical safety certificate went from £1,000 to £2,400. Again, nothing to do with the EU. This was our own government.
I’ve said before, Brexit in of itself isn’t that dangerous, but while we have a government in power that is so massively out of touch with reality to the point where instead of funding wind turbines on one of the windiest islands in Europe, they’re borrowing diesel generators from Germany in order to stop the power grid failing. Instead of funding apprenticeships to keep our industries open, they’ve been funding railway projects that are literally going to kill off any and all business startups in the Midlands because all talent will drain to London. Instead of funding basic healthcare needs like fucking ambulances, they’re planning on building one single nuclear power plant in the South that is based on designs so old that the factory making the parts is having to bring machinery out of museums, which will have a power output so small that by the time it has completed, it will be outputting less than 18% of the power required in that immediate area of the national power grid.
Gee @Woodman, our arguments are getting rather intellectual
