The implication of Leave is that we'd have far fewer 'red tape' and bureaucracy, but in reality most if not all of the laws which the EU requires would be implemented by any national government anyway, as they are about food safety, work safety, and above all about the ability to have common specifications in order to allow easier trade within the Euro-zone. If Leave want to negotiate a trade partnership with the EU then they will end up having to accept all the rules on specifications of goods and services, but without having a voice in deciding them. Which seems a bit daft to me.
