    Don't count your chickens. If it rains turnout will go down.

    I'm so glad I'm not living in Scotland or near it.

    Too horrible referendums in two years. Least the Scottish has the sense to ensure their MSPs weren't killed or seriously injured during their campaigning.

    I'm not sure the poll is worded fairly.
    The great unwashed would think "status quo" are a dinosaur rock band so, on the basis they have heard of them, would vote to remain.

    I have received yet another "Remain" leaflet that has no facts just that we should vote remain for the better of Britain... I am sooo glad all this tax money going to good use. Wondering how much in total was spent on this nonsense instead of helping British people in poverty.


    Talking about facts, just learned something today, apparently Moldova (Ex Russian country) which is NOT in the EU and is an independent country is allowed by Romania to have its citizens apply for Romanian Passports which causes big bottlenecks at major border towns...
    Now guess why the passport offices in the major Romanian border towns such as Vaslui have such big queues and massive bottlenecks? Cause all the Moldavians that want Romanian Passports so they come to the UK!!! FACT!!!

    Moldova is an extremely poor country that provides no future prospects to anyone leaving there, pretty much the only thing that comes out of it is prosies and human trafficking
    On the other hand they do have really good looking women, see "Miss audience choice 2015" in UK, goggle it. Good news is that half of the country is in the UK now and still coming.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moldova

    I bet the UK people have no idea that when Romania was allowed in the EU they got Moldova too as an extra bonus eh?

    Stay in EU, go on Adult Work website and check out the "working" girls, I bet you %80 of the ones near you or right on your street come from Eastern Europe. Nothing wrong with that I guess but the UK had enough garbage no need to get the EU garbage too...

    The whole gamble thing goes both ways but I would say it is a bigger gamble staying in as you are literally gambling by hoping and pretty much promising to the UK people that every other EU country is growing economically and getting better when in fact they are all getting worse and slowly collapsing. We'll be attached and locked to a sinking ship, no way out. Plenty of solo countries out there that have amazing standard of living, trading etc (Switzerland, Australia, Canada to name the main ones).

    Sad truth is that the British people have no idea what the EC or EU is... they think by leaving the EU they are leaving the EC. By leaving the EU Germany may see fit that we leave the EC too? Guess they now have their world domination without firing a single weapon. Since they are not allowed to have any armed forced they will soon have the EU Army, yes they will.

    Sounds to me like the EU is planning an Embargo on UK if they leave... nice campaign, stay in or else!!!

    Most Bremainers are far too clever for this, and won't say anything daft. But people like Toynbee and Alabhi-Brown have probably already written some ill judged pieces.
    Lots of foreign papers suggesting this is to do with brexit...

    As soon as I read the words 'Britain first' I knew this would be the case.

    To many things we do not know

    maybe the guy voted labour last time after speaking to the MP based on promises around reducing immigration (or something)

    and then he sees he banging on about why we should stay and he equates that to mean immigration will rise and so he feels let down, lied to etc etc

    and that fact he was a nutter meant he went postal

    whilst it is a shocking event I think it should be a big wake up call to a lot of people out there who thing that they can spout whatever shiite they want and there will be no come back.

    the british peasants have a habit of rising up against those who seek to oppress them

    The "Britian First" quote now seems now to possibly be "put Britain first". The whole thing has echos of Derek Bentley saying "let him have it".
