Is Farage helping or hindering Leave?

[The_Equalizer]

You ever had a "friend" who kept telling your what you wanted to hear rather than what you needed to hear? for their own selfish purposes? We have all been a bit stupid at times... They aren't immune from being stupid. You are free to see the situation differently...

A friend, may be, when I was young, but not boat loads of grown men.

On a slightly more serious note, what is Farage's 'selfish purpose'? The only UKIP MP is Carswell who seem fairly balanced to me. UKIP Ex-MP Mark Reckless too.

While we're about it, I think Remainers and Brexiters would find this dead interesting:

I hope the final few days of the campaign, on both sides, present a positive case to stay/leave.

I do know that. It's not about individuals, but the leave campaign seems to focus on issues that aren't what I want to vote for. I dunno, will see how the next few days pan out. If we leave, I worry that xenophobic right wingers will take it as a mandate to pursue their agenda.

However a vote for in carries the danger that the left wing socialists will drag us into a socialist state that we cannot legally leave or change.

Remember a Brexit apart from triggering Biblical plagues and 1927 style recessions will bring government back to the UK. If the right wingers step over the line you can lobby your MP to limit it.

The extreme behavior from both sides has been appalling.

Always the same old silly comparisons. Hitler made a rather good job of fixing inflation and improving Germany's economy so maybe we should denounce anyone trying to doing those things too.

All of this makes me thing a mood change will make people tick the remain box. Honestly I think that this lone nutter in Yorkshire is going to swing it.

You might well be right.

I wonder whether there is more to it than this "lone nutter". I am reminded of Barry George who was convicted of killing Jill Dando. George was also a lone nutter, but was eventually cleared. I wonder whether it turns out somebody else with more nefarious motives was actually behind the killing of the MP. Such as perhaps a hitman paid by someone who benefits greatly from EU membership, and knows that the political effect of the killing would help solve their "brexit" problem.

Of course it is a "conspiracy theory".

No need for this tulip.

There were sufficient witnesses there.

The mirror mentioned a girl who saw a bloke with binoculars lying down between two grave stones in the local cemetery 30 minutes after the shooting - who left after he saw she had spotted him from her window...

But if they do at least you know that you will be able to bin them in a few years. Thats more than can be said for the EU commissioners

It is a very stupid poster.

Luckily, the Sun readers have been told how to vote already. Phew!

That's the way it rolls. It's The Sun what won it.
