Economically irrelevant? I think that's a bit harsh. If they did go through with an exit their economy would almost certainly take a hit, but they are the world's 5th (or thereabouts) largest economy and even if they fell a few places being in the top 10 out of the 200+ countries / city states in the world is not quite irrelevant. Diminished, definitely. But irrelevant, I don't think so.
And London is built into the world's financial merry-go-round and while there will be some repercussions I'm not so sure that it will be as damaging as some scaremongers predict.
Still there's a long way to go with this story. Will certainly be entertaining watching.
