The polls are open in Britain’s historic EU Referendum.
We’ve covered the campaigns with intense interest, bringing in voices from across the political spectrum to explain what they think is best for the nation.
Our belief that Brexit is the way forward is pretty unambiguous – though we have given space to the occasional Remain argument. Here’s the best of what Heat Street has had to offer:
Kate Hoey MP (Labour): The Left-Wing Case for Brexit
Jacob Rees-Mogg MP (Conservative): EU Has Failed. Choose Freedom
“Is your country Europe, and are you European? Or is your country the United Kingdom and are you British?“
Steven Woolfe MEP (UKIP):
Remain is No Status Quo
“When we reach that T-Junction on 23rd June, if we turn left, we are voting to sign away more powers to Brussels and voting to be apart of a United States of Europe. If we turn right, we are voting for a free, independent Britain.“
Vote Brexit to Defend Freedom
“A United States of Europe – as many want – is simply not compatible with nation-state democracy. It’s one or the other.“
EU Hurts the Working Poor
“The idea that the EU works in the interests of the poor could not be further from the truth.“
EU Is the Real Threat to Peace
“The anti-democratic EU has divided Europe.“

Harry Phibbs:
There is Nothing Xenophobic About Backing Brexit
“Brexit is about democracy – the people of a nation being able to elect those who will decide the laws they live under. This is not nationalistic or xenophobic.“
Americans Would Despise The European Union If It Happened To Them
“The United States would not allow the Canadians, Mexicans and Brazilians to decide on the laws that apply in the USA.“

Stuart Wheeler: Why Britain Must Quit The EU
“It is fundamental that a country must make its own laws and enforce them in its own courts. That is not happening: it will not happen as long as we are in the EU.“
Jess Phillips MP (Labour): The Patriotic Case for Remain
“It is my patriotism that makes me want to stay in Europe. I want Britain to be the biggest and best it can be. I want to have all the influence. I want us to be part of a gang that makes us stronger, makes our voice louder.“
Suzanne Evans (UKIP): The Patriotic Case for Brexit
“The patriotic vote is a vote to leave the European Union. It’s saying to the EU: we wish you very best; we’ll continue to be your trading partners and military allies, but we’re a proud and patriotic people. From now on, we’ll govern ourselves.“
