Looks pretty bloody close at the moment.


You sure about that?



Yes.

Very, very close.

Polling experts are now predicting a narrow win for 'Leave'.

The areas where Leave were expected to win they are winning with an increased majority.
Sunderland voted Leave with a 20% margin.

Newcastle was expected to be a Remain landslide and it was 1%.

We could win this yet!!!!




Why? Because apart from stopping immigration, I havent really heard a decent economic argument that cant be shot down.

That's not a surprise at all.

Because I don't want laws set by people that I have no opportunity to vote out and I don't want my tax dollars propping up failed banana republics like Italy, Greece and Spain.

What does being an immigrant have to.do with this? The reason young people want to stay in is they want to travel, work and live in Europe.


Nonsense. I travelled in Europe long before 'EU'. A little thing called a Travel Visa. And what percentage of the young Remain group want to work and live there? 2%? More?

Scare tactics. If you can afford to travel - no one's going to refuse your money.

Britain will vote to stay, but if they don’t Britain will negotiate a deal that won’t change much. Britain will keep its Polish.immigrants and keep taking more. The problem will be the market for British goods.

How this would be solved, I have no idea.


Grin

Britain is being told by lawyers on the continent what they can and can't decide in their law courts with regard to deportations and the like.

And much much more of an interfering nature that the British government and judiciary have no power to oppose.

My tax money went into the EU and we in Britain pay more in than we get back.
Spain gets more money than it puts in.

Why should I pay for Spain?

Exactly.

EU Socialism means Britain has been redistributing its wealth to failed societies that will never say "Thank you" to the British taxpayers.

The floods in some areas may have reduced turnout which should have helped us in the Leave camp.

Not a single news station in my hotel room is covering this.

You would think that CNN or CNBC might.

Yet we have an interview with LeBron James...

1. My understanding is thats in direct money, how much money will you guys miss out on through reduced trade.

2. Again how much actual tax goes to the EU for the average British citizen

I have heard several people say they're voting "remain" because otherwise theyre gonna kick all the immigrants out, which supposedly includes their husbands/wives.

No its not true, but this is the narrative theyve been fed their whole lives.
