    Europe In or Out.. you decide

    The Headline says “UK contractors want to stay in EU

    Like most BBC / Govt polls it appears to be based on a very small sample size of only those 3150 individuals misguided enough to waste their money joining IPSE and then extrapolated to represent the 1.4 million IT freelancers

    The majority of the UK’s freelance and contract professionals believe the country should remain part of the European Union, a survey shows.
    Only about a quarter of the 3,150 IPSE members who were surveyed said they would vote for the UK to no longer be a member of the EU, while 14 per cent said they were undecided if they would vote ‘remain’ or ‘leave
    So in the interest of fairness a Troll Poll ™ to give a definitive answer & like the national referendum no voting by johnny bloody foreigners allowed -especially former Eastern Europeans / Komrades

      Its a sample, once they get it back from the lab they might work out what it really is.
      Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

        Something which penicillin isn't effective against would be my guess.

          I like this poll.
          It's very unusual to get a vote on anything in Europe

            In the interests of meaningless anecdotal evidence....

            My wife is Slovak - she'd vote for the UK to leave.

              You get to vote time & time again until you get it "right".

                I wonder if the police will listen to my complaint that voting to remain a member of the EU is a direct act of Treason?

                  Both sides have legitimate arguments

                    Really? Treason is pretty clear cut:

                    Under the Treason & Felony Act 1848 it is a treasonable offence to:

                    Give Aid, Comfort and Support to a Foreign Power , Persons or
                    Organisation wishing to subvert the Sovereignty of the Country
