[Closed] EU Referendum - are you in or out?

pound was up then down
so does that mean markets thought remain this morning, brexit this afternoon or no one has a freaking clue?

Given that:

i) poor weather has a well recorded negative effect on voter turnout

ii) polls suggest that voters in the SE of England are more heavily pro EU than other regions of the U.K.

I am formally claiming that we are currently witnessing an act of divine intervention in favour of Brexit

99% of people who I've heard or read opinions from are firmly in Remain

That depends upon who you read and socialise with.

80% of voters in SE are currently stuck between J9-13 on M25

Maybe you should befriend a random selection of racists?

People who have a hatred of the "neo-liberal agenda" dislike the EU intensely.

People who hate "socialists" dislike the EU intensely.

People who have a Nationalist bent dislike the EU intensely.

Racists dislike the EU.

The ignorant hate the EU because they don't know what "intensely" means, that Nigel Farage fella likes a pint and he,
"tells it like it is"(n't).

Normal people who don't believe the EU to be perfect, but believe that it is better to be in the EU than out of it, and would prefer to maintain the status quo, rather than "take a punt" on leaving, for any of the reasons listed above, don't dislike the EU intensely.

I see, "normal people" don't think the EU is perfect but want to remain in it.

Obviously I'm some sort of loony because I don't support the neo-liberal agenda and therefore want to leave the EU.

Perhaps UK courts could save both time and a small fortune by instead of requesting psychiatric reports simply asking the accused how they feel about the EU ?

Well you do appear to be a member of one of the groups referred to in my hypothesis

We discussed something along these lines earlier today. As an idea it does have legs.

I spoke to four people on my trip to the polling station (and sarnie shop) and they were all pro Brexit. Currently wondering if any European countries will offer sanctuary?

Well you do satisfy one the criteria set out in my hypothesis.

Don't I just.

In fact I can sense my eyes swiveling as I type

Thanks for your honesty 😉

Well I've always said that if you can't be honest when it comes to politics then change your politics.

And what is that supposed to illustrate with regard to the UK and the EU?

Markets are responding to bookies' odds not polls

Not much - mostly just an object lesson in misuse of statistics.

It shows that our membership has really dragged the EU down and if we really love it we should set it free.

Is that it?

@Aristotle that the EU is not where the action is. Its a low growth area (stangnant I have called it) and as Obama has done with the US it makes sense to focus East to the higher growth markets.

Not long back from voting and my mind hadn't been changed. #Vote Brexit

Okay ... this is Peugeot ...

I think it means emergent markets have emerged and global capitalism is global
I think that is it but all this economics talk is confusing me

Even war commander thinks so ...

Kind of poetic that the bad weather is travelling up from France.

Okay ... this is Peugeot ...

That would be Peugeot who recently said:
"This is something we can do nothing about. The people of the UK must make their own decisions. The business risk comes from a loss of revenue around currency and trading. The situation is that if the pound weakens and hits profits, then prices will rise to compensate. Ultimately, we hope the UK will stay - we see that as better than it fighting for itself."

Oh and meanwhile in 2007:

Less cars more bikes 😉

At the end of a major recession - the EU "only" accounts for 1/5 of the world's output. What a pointless place to focus on. Run away......

With emerging markets slowing and Europe recovering it will be interested where this stagnant market is in a few years!

I'll have a pound of those nice cherries please 😉

In 1972 BritLand ex-PM Edward Heath (was he called "Teddy boy" Heath?) sold out BritLand to save weak Europeans ...

But now EU bureaucrats as they grow stronger is attempting a "reverse take" over?

I mean have BritLand regressed after all this years?

Good illustration here ...

I don't know why as a Tory/UKIP voter you appear to have a problem with that Chewwy.

With higher unemployment and lower wages it made perfect sense for Peugeot to move to Slovakia.

high unemployment + low wages = greater profits.

Have you gone all soft and left-wing? Can we expect you to start talking about "greedy profit-hungry" companies next?

Good illustration here ...

chewkw: If you'd stop just spamming leave.eu images for a ten seconds you could do a bit of googling and see a lot of that is either completely made up or distinctly sketchy half-truths.

I'm sure he's gone home since 20 oct 2010

I like The Spectator picture of one the funny guy.

They think you lot are wrong and they have better logic then you lot.

Well he seems to have a blazer and clearly knows how to hold a pint......obviously a UKIP member.

Fair enough - all you have convinced me of is that there are lots of Leave arguments based on lies, spin and angry facebook picture memes.

Which is a shame because you've undermined and drowned out the far more convincing and carefully considered arguments that more serious Leavers have put forward.
