Hi Syntax.
Go back and read post number 45...... It is a very good article and clearly explains why we may not be able to join the EEA and also why we may not want to.
Whilst Britain, having voted for an out, would be obliged to provide work permits to EU citizens currently working in the UK, no EU nation would be obliged to reciprocate. It may well be a one way situation where foreign passport holders continue to work in the UK whilst British passport holders are forced to return to the UK.
What I seem to read in what most Outers argue is that nothing would change, well if that is what they want then why vote "out". Unfortunately things for British pilots would change dramatically for the worse.
I am a British/American but in my career 90% of the best work has come from having an EU passport.
