Dominic Raab Quotes

If we leave the E.U., we will regain control of our own money.

I fought passionately to remain in the E.U., and I warned of the economic risks if we left the E.U.

It would be a very serious mistake for the U.K. to vote to leave the European Union, and I think it would be democratically indefensible for Scotland, if we had voted to stay in, to face the prospect of being taken out.

The country voted to leave the European Union, and it is the duty of the Government and of Parliament to make sure we do just that.

I believe the United Kingdom will be worse off outside the E.U. It will not have the influence it has in the world today.

Whether we remain in the European Union will determine Britain's future role in the world and the comparative success of our economy for our children and grandchildren.

Brexit will happen.

Brexit is not only not just about left and right. Brexit is about expertise.

Leaving the E.U. is an opportunity for our country.

I think the E.U. means different things to different countries. In the U.K., traditionally, if you know anything about the U.K.'s history and its relationship with the E.U., it is about the common market; it's about being part of something that is good for jobs and growth.

I voted to remain because I thought it was costly and complicated to leave the EU, and that is clearly still the case. But there are opportunities and challenges.

In 2016 the public voted by a majority to leave the E.U. As I can see from my mailbag, some are angry at being deprived of their hopes and expectations. They demand action to implement their vote, just as others require we should think again and abandon the project entirely.

Brexit is an immensely complex national challenge encompassing issues from sovereignty and trade to security in an increasingly interdependent world.

Brexit is a major concern for us, and it should be a major concern for all of us who live in the U.K. and operate out of the U.K.

I said a vote to leave would be a Brexit tax. I couldn't think of anything stronger than that.

You don't need to be a John Maynard Keynes to understand that if Britain leaves the European market, a border will have to be put in place - and that would break U.K. obligations in a treaty lodged at the United Nations.

The ability to control our borders stands at the heart of the debate on whether or not Britain should leave the European Union.

We've been slagging off the E.U. for decades, and now we've gone and voted to leave. And if anyone thinks they are going to offer us some great trade deal as we walk away, they are living in la la land.

If we have Brexit, we don't know what we will get.

We need to work together to either achieve a form of Brexit that does not threaten our future or ensure that the decision to complete departure is the electorate's informed choice.

If we left the European Union, it would be a one-way ticket, not a return. So we will have time for a proper, reasoned debate. At the end of that debate you, the British people, will decide.

The idea seems to be to use the next treaty talks to strike a grand bargain: Britain will be helpful to those states wishing to establish a fiscal union among themselves if, in exchange, we can amicably derogate from the aspects of the EU which we dislike.

I would like a UK fully engaged in Europe, but I can't decide in place of the British. I see that for the moment they want to be more in retreat.

I am an optimist about the UK. We have been involved in trade with our European partners, which we will always be doing whatever this relationship is. We are a member of the EU. That gives us benefits. But we have to figure out where that is going. In the world, we are a global trader already.

I would wish for more British involvement in Europe, not less.
