Of course some people think that the independence to negotiate these
sorts of things for ourself is a good thing, but it's naive to assume
that we'll end up with a more advantageous arrangement as a result.

That's the appalling chauvinism, reminiscent of the worst parts of
Britain's
imperial past ("foreigners will do what we say"), that seems to keep
coming
from the Leave side.

Maybe there will be more work for our shipyards building gunboats
post-Brexit?

If we don't negotiate away our fishing rights we will almost certainly need
ships to enforce it

I cant see two Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers (without any planes
on them) being overly useful in that task
