Out – and into the world: why The Spectator is for Leave

Shilly shally, willy wally, I finally opt for Out. Not because of the article below, though it does sum up the Leave argument admirably.
But because I see that it sums up to two things: one the economic argument; two the sovereignty argument.
On the economic argument: all the predictions I've seen give in/out pretty much a wash. 1% or 2% this way or that. That's neither here nor there.
Sovereignty: this is much clearer. For sure sovereignty is regained by Leave.
And as for the immigration issue, that's all wrapped into the sovereignty one. Control back to the uk. So that's the balance.
Today's the referendum.
Here's the Speccie saying out.
