Are you in or are you out? “There’s a lot of scaremongering going on” says co-director of printing company

Glyn Johnson is the co-director of Spin Print, a Barnsley trade printing and design business.

Are you in or are you out? Undecided

Why?

I tend to fluctuate in my opinion because there is a lot of scaremongering going on.

It could affect people we do business with but I don’t have access to information, and I’m not really convinced that it would lose us business if we left.

I believe that with most of these issues, British business will not feel it on the whole.

Certain people will – if you lose direct business through it, some people will lose their jobs and there will be a little of downturn initially, but it will be back to status quo within 3 years.

The benefits of red tape disappearing won’t happen instantly either, we will carry on with the same regulations.

If the Government do introduce it different regulations, they will make a complete mess of it. The transition can’t possibly be instant, and we will have to be regulated somehow. The Government might introduce less onerous things but it won’t be tomorrow.

From a coward’s point of view I would stay in as it’s better the devil you know.

What would a Brexit mean for your business?

Because of the nature of the business meaning we sell prints through third parties, we don’t always know who the end user is, or whether they have the contract or business with the whole of Europe or just part of the UK.

It’s a concern that if some of the print products we deliver go to Europe we may lose that business – it is all so uncertain and that is the problem.
