It’s all well and good for people to have views on immigration but the point is that even if there is a Brexit, the Government (being a democracy) will have to put any proposals to Parliament.
To date, there is no appetite from Labour or the Conservatives to further amend the Immigration Act (2014).
So how are the Brexit campaign going to deliver their promises on immigration?
This is a common misunderstanding... voting OUT won't suddenly mean that immigrants stop...

A fair few of the OUT! voters are basing their whole decision on immigration, without even thinking of any other factors.
A completely misguided view of immigration too...
Maybe we could hire a load of Romanians to build a wall around our great isle

That maybe true for some but how can the remain guys come up with these finance impacts in 10-15 years if we leave yet can't even predict what will happen next year.

Your a typical remain idiot. Anything you don't like hearing you just call someone racists.

Calling someone an idiot when you don't understand the difference between YOUR and YOU'RE
Oh no the grammar police are here.

I think this is a really valid point, you never see it being mentioned by the Out campaigners though.

The overwhelming body of economists, governments, and monetary bodies, all have stated remaining in the EU will be better for the UK economy.
Economists rarely agree on anything but in regard to the EU 88% agreed that the UK should remain.
The fact that there is going to be a referendum has already adversely hit the value of the pound. This is not speculative but fact, as it’s happening now.
In regard to financial impact, this is most certainly part of the debate that the leave campaign has lost.

Question to the remainers
Firstly, what's your take on the single currency?
Secondly, do you honestly believe the EU is actually reformable?
Personally I'm leaning towards remain but then I really don't want further integration into what us clearly a failing project

The majority of these"experts" didn't see the crash coming in 2007, did they?
They also failed to identify the Greek financial crisis until way too late. Not to mention a lot of the "independent" financial bodies receive significant funding from the EU. These include the IMF & the IFS, both of which support remain.
The Euro itself has been struggling for the past two years in the wake of the Greece, Portugal & Italy shoring up exercise. Despite us not being in the Euro, we had to pay nearly £1bn towards helping Greece.
Of course the £ is going to fluctuate in times of uncertainty, just as it will recover once the referendum is decided whichever way.
With regard to financial impact, the remain campaign has used the WORST CASE SCENARIO in everyone of their predictions.
As pointed out these "experts" have trouble forecasting accurately even 12 months ahead, so how on Earth can anyone take seriously forecasts of what "might" happen in 15-20 years time?
As for migration, there have been proposals mooted re using a similar system to Australia's points method.
The key is not to stop migration, but to manage it in a sensible and fair way.
Finally, some financial experts forecast that the Euro will collapse sometime in the next 5 years.
Are they right, I don't know but it is an accident waiting to happen in my opinion.

Most were split, and forecasts varied.
However the overwhelming view on remain from an financial perspective has been unprecedented.

Question should be why the fcuuk the likes of Greece, Italy and Portugal were brought into the currency union in the first place
I have a small house (Britain) but it would be nicer with a small dachshund dog (Doctor) which I have room to make a bed for.
Should I advertise for a dachshund to find what I want, or should I open my front door, let 30 random dogs in, feed them all and hope one is a dachshund?

Another ridiculous analogy
Firstly why are attempting to compare the highly complex Brexit question with acquiring a dog?
Secondly, why are you comparing foreigners to dogs?
