“The EU have many regulations that control food standards,mechanical standards, air quality, water quality etc etc etc”,
And good standards they are too!! The UK Government was an active participant in drafting these standards and then implementing them into UK legislation.
If you prefer more sewage in our rivers and coastal waters, more children getting asthma, dodgy chicken, fewer workers rights you know who to vote for. Truss and the Tories will be on your side.
We weren’t controlled by the EU. We were a member state, with more preferential options than any other member.
