I think you're about 12 hours too late for stopping the press in that one - maybe more.

But it doesn't really matter anyway, does it?

Maybe it's because Becks knows full well which way all the pit-bull owning, badly tattooed, meatheaded ****-wits who said he should be killed for getting sent off in an Engerland match will be voting? He's just winding them, and Jammers up 😆

What's the possibility of the Govt simply ignoring the referendum if it goes the wrong way?

I've just had the misfortune to read the daily fail. Nice stuff. In no way just rammed full of petty, nasty, small-minded racism. Maybe if you wanted an unbiased, informed opinion on matters, you'd want to read their star columnist:

Convicted criminal, arms dealer, and utterly corrupt, monumentally arrogant, uber-privelidged Thatcherite ****

Enjoy

is he going to hold back the immigrants with the simple sword of truth and the trusty shield of British fair play. It would be comical if wasn't so tragic.

Nope. That field is and unless there is some really funky electoral fraud it doesn't have a vote

On my "this week's" drive to work, I've been crossing the Cotswolds. Plenty of farmers' fields have a "Vote Leave" sign in it. All very well and not surprising, it's the Cotswolds...the ****-ness coefficient is high. And for every 10 fields with one of those ^^^ in it, that's maybe 2 votes, perhaps 4. With the builders I persuaded to vote Remain today & yesterday (it didn't take much persuading before they saw sense to be fair...they were all "we're not bothered"), I've probably cancelled out all the posters between the M5 and my destination - approx 20 miles of Cotswolds. If they persuade their wives to do the same, then that's more than cancelled out the posters. Easy when you put half an effort into it really.

DD - I hate to burst your bubble but in all likelihood the builders you 'persuaded' might have just agreed to avoid a drawn out debate. I've been doing this for the last 3 weeks at work. I neither have the time or energy to discuss this issue with people at work so as soon as someone attempts to discuss it i just agree with them whatever their view and try to close down the discussion before it begins.

By the way, come up here to Derbyshire. There are plenty of farms around here and there is a sea of leave posters in their fields, each farmer with wives and dependant employees and suppliers to persuade.

Well nearly a week in Cologne has certainly convinced me about how far the city and EU has fallen, the number of immigrants has probably doubled since I was last here so by my count roughly ten spotting's a day as opposed to five. (can't count Turks as they've been here for years). Shocking stuff, had to navigate around a group of black men playing jazz by the riverside, probably never even heard of Wonderwall, hmph...

My dads farm has 12 Remain posters on the road boundaries and 2 in the back of his van. Wiltshire if you're wondering.

Well, that's ok, you haven't. I'm still polishing it now. It was actually a lively few discussions...over tea/lunch... what do you think I did, disturb them while they were busy working? Jeez. 😆

Rone incorrect. Dyson has the biggest market share in the German Vacuum market.

So the counter argument- how are young people/people in the lowest working class supposed to find work with increasing competition to jobs?

Why are remain shouting and shouting over? Unstable idiots shout down people.

So the man who moved all his manufacturing out of the UK so that he can pay lower wages and make more money for himself thinks we should vote to leave?

Right... best vote to leave then

Hit it. He has no argument does he?

I also think it's hilarious you can buy a Made In Germany Miele vac for half the price of a Dyson and it's twice as good.

It's a puny panel. The BBC has tried too hard to make things rounded.

I still think Remain will win, the momentum is with them and the financial markets rarely get it wrong. That said there are a few 'silent Berexiteers' about so I live in hope.

The thing that frustrates me most about all of this is that both sides are making policy promises that they can't keep.
This isn't a general election.
This is a vote for in or out, not for a political party's hyperthetical policy if we remain or leave.

That's my thinking too. Brexit lot have made an awful lot of promises that they know they can't conceivably keep. On account of their entire campaign being based on a pack of lies.

So if they win (God help us all!) then the morons who voted for them are going to be looking for them to come through for them, instantly end immigration and put £350 million a week into the NHS. But as anyone with anything between their ears knows... that's not going to happen. And then there's the economy imploding

So what then?

History has shown us that people of their disposition, prone as they are to blatant hysterical lying, with no care for the consequences, Continue to unashamedly detract attention with further whopping lies, and desperately look for people to blame. Minorities come in very very handy there. And since you've based your entire campaign on xenophobia and racism, well that's the obvious way to go....?

And all of a sudden you're in Berlin, circa 1936......
