Brexit backers reveal roadmap for post-referendum Britain

Leaders of the Vote Leave campaign in the UK's upcoming referendum have set out a roadmap of how the country can manage its exit from the European Union.

Britons will go to the polls in one week´s time in a historic vote to decide whether they will stay in the EU or leave, and Boris Johnson, Michael Gove and other leaders of the Brexit campaign have released their post-exit plans.

A Leave vote would begin immediate government action to deport any European criminals that are resident in the UK, as well as blocking the automatic entry of those from the bloc into Britain.

They have set out that all trade deals and EU laws applied to Britain should be made null and void as of 2020, with new deals being negotiated between the separate entities by this time. David Cameron has claimed that a Brexit would lead to a decade of uncertainty

The group set out six bills that would be on the agenda tomake the transition as smooth as possible.

In Brussels, informal negotiations with the EU could begin immediately after the vote, they said, and only after these “preliminary discussions” would it be necessary to activate Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union – the mechanism by which a member state formerly negotiates its exit from the bloc.

Among the other motions, they have proposed a new finance bill which would abolish the 5% VAT rate on energy bills, alongside plans to increase NHS spending. This all comes despite the various economists' warnings that less public spending would be available due to a sharp financial downturn.

Leader of the House of Commons Chris Gayling, who is a Leave supporter, said that “after we vote leave, the public need to see that there is immediate action to take back control from the EU."

"We will need a carefully managed negotiation process and some major legislative changes before 2020, including taking real steps to limit immigration, to abolish VAT on fuel and tampons, and to end the situation where an international court can tell us who we can and cannot deport."

During the last Prime Minister's Questions before next Thursday's referendum, David Cameron reiterated his belief that this proposed increase in public spending will not be viable, as the funds simply won't be there.

“If we vote out, the experts warn us that we will have a smaller economy, less employment, lower wages and, therefore, lower tax receipts,” he said. Nobody wants to have an emergency Budget. Nobody wants to have cuts in public services. Nobody wants to have tax increases."
