What if it is intrinsically a value-based choice?
The empirical evidence is all weak and marginal, this kind of thing doesn't happen often. What will happen to trade? Nobody knows, but if we leave certainly trade agreements will be struck, so it might remain similar.
What will it do to immigration? Nobody knows, but there probably won't be a massive change either way.
I want to stay in the EU, because I like European ideals, and because in the long run, I think the only way for Britain to defend its geopolitical interests is to coordinate with Europe. I think remaining in the EU is a step toward that, though not necessary or sufficient. I think it's also a diffusion of power, away from Britain's elite controlled media and financial sector.
If you are more to the political right, I guess you'll think exactly the opposite.
I don't think any empirical evidence is likely to be produced that will inform these types of concerns.
