I too will need to do some research, but Cameron might not struggle to get a yes vote. I know Scotland wanted to stay in the EU post referendum, but I don't know the pros and cons yet, I need to research the issue.
Well, Britain could benefit from leaving the Union, but such isolationist practices undermine the entire point of the Union when the most powerful nation decides to leave.The EU is a victory for diplomacy, world economics, and global politics. Of course, this is the Conservative party leader speaking about leaving the Union, so no surprises really.
We better not leave. The pros outweight the cons. We can stop the immigration problem by forcing employers to pay the living wage but the Tories will never do that.

Britain needs to get its deal altered in favor of the country. Right now it's getting stung - paying far more in than it gets out and having to go through EU regulations to control its own borders. Most Brits are in favor of changing Britain's place in the EU, but not leaving. That would only happen if Germany and the rest of the EU kingpins decide the UK can't alter the deal it has to be in the EU.
And to all the flops saying "just go" or whatever, please remember the nation you're happy to see leave is the one that held the continent away from Nazi Germany until it could convince the US to help it win WW II, which necessitated the formation of a diplomatic linking of European countries. Britain can still be part of trade blocks against poor human rights countries and can still keep free-trade with the EU, but it wanting more self-governing power, particularly now that it's paying into a system that is rewarding the rich and punishing the countries that hit the skids in the recession (even (pro-gay!) Ireland who has been doing incredibly well lately no thanks to EU debt payments and austerity), isn't necessarily a bad thing.
The EU is a great thing. But it, and in particular the eurozone, needs massive reforming.
Currently the EU has very loose border controls. If we vote yes to the Brexit (British Exit) the border controls will be tightened for EU citizens.
At the moment the UK already has tighter border controls for people outside the EU to come into the country, so quite simply we will have a set standard for everyone. The UK will be looking for skilled and educated immigrants so I can't see this affecting you much at all.
