What metric would you use to measure if the UK was more successful out of the EU then in? I'm looking for an objective metric that can be measured.

GDP's not perfect, but that should hint at a number of things. Look also at Organic Inflation, and Debt Ratio. Unless the UK governments to come take much worse decisions than the EU bureaucrats, it should not be too difficult to do better.

Median wages up, economic inequality down, investments in social stability programs (retirement, healthcare, education) up.

In the US, those are all going the opposite directions.
