With some polls having leave now in the lead as well. Wish I put a bet on now when they were at 8-1 for leave. :-(
I still can't help but think that it is more a vote against Cameron than the eu. If Cameron was on the leave campaign then I belive most would then vote to stay.
I can't stand the bloke personally and hope he loses job which ever way it goes. But if we do leave I hope it's because that's what the people want and not just a chance to get Cameron out of power. Because he is not worth gamberling with the uk future just to get him out of number 10. He's not bigger than our country. :-)
I don't trust Cameron even though I voted Conservatives at last few elections. I am voting out purely because I believe that long term we will be far better off out of this shambles of an organisation. We may have a tricky couple of years if we leave, but this is our long term future and will shape generations to come. The remain campaign seem to be concentrating only on what will happen over the next year or two. Always the same, no long term planning, can't seeem to see beyond the end of the week.

I agree with you.
If we vote out personally think we have trade deals tied up pretty quickly because like others said companies will want to trade with us. But if they play hard ball and no deals are done for 7 plus years it could be a lot longer of hard times.
Also if we leave in and after trade deals are done do you think immigration will have been sorted ??

I don't know is the honest answer. I think both sides have exagerated as to what will happen to immigration if we leave. My personal view is that if a fairly small island surrounded by water can't have some sort of control over who comes into the country, there is something wrong with our border patrols. Like most of our big talking points, I don't recall them being major issues before we got caught up with this organisation. I am not convinced this country would have opted in if they had been told we would be handing control over our policies and law making abilities to foreign bureaucrats. This was originally all about making it easier to trade, and I think a lot of small businesses would argue that even that has'nt worked for them.

I have to admit the leave campaign put up a better fight than I thought. But it seems in the end not everyone bought In to they flimsy claims and borderline racist views.
The country is smarter in the main than a leave campaigner.

Absolutely disgraceful, fella!
You refer to such an outcome as the above and then you with (quote in another post) "Lie after lie after lie comes from the leave campaign. They can not be trusted"
And YOU can be trusted with statements like that????
To make matters worse, you then state: "The markets soar today. Due to the leave campaign all but giving up at the weekend"
Excuse me if I am wrong, but wasn't the whole campaign suspended by BOTH SIDES out of respect for the tragedy that was the murder of Jo Cox, MP????
So far today, you have referred to people who have an opposing view to your own as (quote) "Stupid", "Clowns" and now "Prospective Nazis"
Seems to me you are a total hypocrite and a bit of a liar yourself, fella!

Tony Blue Williams wrote:I never wanted a referendum on EU membership and only got one because of in fighting in the Tory Party. In principle I think a United States of Europe is not a bad idea as collectively as a continent we would have more clout globally. So originally I would have voted to remain in.
However, I have changed my mind and will vote to leave. The first thing that got me thinking was a post by Nuclearblue in which he compared the EU to Nazi Germany. I thought then (and still do now) that he over egged the situation but it got me for the first time to look at how the EU works.
I was completely stunned to find out that the EU Parliament (which contains MEP's which I voted for) has no legislative powers at ALL!! Apparently all EU laws can only be passed with the consent of the EU Commission who has the final say. This means that there is no accountability and no matter how badly the EU Commission performs us as EU citizens cannot vote out any of the 28 members!
This is a situation not seen since the Magna Carter. Therefore I cannot bring myself to vote for such an undemocratic institution. I strongly believe the EU has too much self interest to ever change and it will take a massive event such as our leaving to bring the EU to its senses as other countries will follow our lead in a domino effect.
I have also been really unimpressed by Dodgy Dave and his project fear. It is something which has severed him well before in the Scottish referendum and the 2015 General Election so naturally he has used the same tactics again. But like Russell Slade found out people finally work you out and his fear project is falling more and more on deaf ears.
As someone on this forum pointed out trade with the EU is not ‘free’ due to our membership as we pay a net £9billion in fees for the privilege to do so! Trade will not end with Europe on our exit nor will Trade with the rest of Europe.
Even if there is a short term hit to our economy (which is far from certain) it will be worth it in order to draw a line in the sand with the EU and hopefully it can begin its well overdue road to reform.
