Just to confuse you further! Michael Dougan Socialist or Patrick Minford, probable conservative, note small 'c'. I don't think the Public has been fed anything really useful from either side.
In life, it is important to know when to stop arguing with people and simply let them be wrong.

I do think that this has shaken the EU and if we do remain then there will be pressure from within to reform and we're seeing this already. For those that are still undecided, are you so unhappy with your life in Britain? If so vote leave but please be prepared for a period of economic and political instability over the next few years which may well leave you worse off before things settle and even then you may not get all that you think that Brexit will deliver. Boris, Gove and Farage are promising much but the fact is that they are in no position to promise anything, even with a Brexit win, because they are not in the same party, never mind a governing party. It will be left to the current government to negotiate our way out of this, and quite possibly the one after if things drag on as some predict. :think:

Vote how you really feel, but not out of fear of what might be, democracy should never be driven by fear :naughty: . Friday we all move forward knowing we have had our say, in, out shake it all about, as always it will be the British people that will make what ever the out come, work :dance: . Friday, the politicians will still be politicians and looking to take the credit but not the blame, CEO's will still be looking at the bottom line and not the people, lawyers will be looking at how they can leach off the bureaucrats muddling and our dogs will still love us and forgive us our shortcomings.
Most importantly for the next four weekends I'll be out and about with those insane folk that have HPR's and try to work them, so life will be good here, what ever the vote :-D

If we remain the EU will not give us one inch,they will screw us to the boards and bleed us dry for even daring to think about leaving. The un-elected burocrats are already planning their revenge on a nation that dared to question them. The remain people are all well off who dont wait hours in Aand E. They dont need a council house.
Why should the British tax payer bail out Greece,Albania,Montenegro,Macedonia and the rest? We have a good economy that will grow stronger if we dont have to give it away.
They tell me that leaving the EU will cost me £350 a year. Well if thats the price I have to pay to remain British its a bargain.

Having watched and read through the information I've now decided I'm overthinking it! I guess it's not my sole responsibility to secure the future of the country :-D As you say the world will still be turning on Friday morning no matter how we vote, we'll just have to get on with things. I'm going with my gut feeling

See you all on the other side!
