Dartmouth launched "The Truth About
Trade Beyond The EU" in Westminster
today, outlining five key 'EU Myths' widely
used by pro-EU campaigners.
Supported by fully quantified and researched
evidence, UKIP rebuts five common falsehoods
that have come to characterise the debate

These
are:
1. Needing to be in the EU to access the Single Market
2. Needing to be a member of the EU to export successfully
3. Leaving the EU would isolate the UK
4. A UK-EU trade agreement would require the free
movement of people
5. A country cannot negotiate trade agreements
without being part of a large trading bloc.
William Dartmouth MEP said: "I am glad to have
been able to draw together this research which
I hope will be a useful contribution to the ongoing
debate about the UK's place in the world.
"Too often the debate surrounding trade is clouded
by misinformation and myths about leaving the EU
when the simple truth is that as a sovereign nation
we we would be able to negotiate and maintain our
own lucrative trade agreements, and could continue
to trade with EU member states but this time, acting
in our own best interests."
