Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?

I am always immediately suspect when we start talking about the "average person." Who is the average person? Just wondering.

In any election (or referendum) voters on both sides read what they...

Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?

Talked to a Scottish mate at the office about this.

He says that with Brexit, there was the advantage that the EU is to most people an abstract concept with few recognisable benefits.

But rUK...

Truth be told, no one.

But I value my aged GP's opinions more than a 21 year old university student. Life experience teaches you far more than what you learn at university or a couple years of...

Where's my roast beef and lamb? Yorkshire pudding? Salmon with dill sauce? Cornish crayfish? Aged cheddar and stilton? Jams and preserves? Ale? Fruit crumbles with custard? Juicy meat pies?

Yep.

That's why I couldn't vote to Remain.

Too late.

A mistake, I think. But not until October.

Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?

How long will Cameron last now?

If Remain had won I'd be pissed and wanting to force him out. But now that Leave has won I'm actually inclined to want him to stay on for the sake of stability....

And the Sun backed the winning horse once again ;)

I'm sure there were some at the Sun sweating bullets last night over last week's endorsement to Leave :sneaky:

Will be transferring large sums home soon :lol:

Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?

There's more to life than pure economics, mate.

Your graph says nothing about, say, increased competition for jobs leading to stagnant wages, for example. That's a common complaint one hears from...

As a wise person pointed out to me, in 1914 the establishment sent out the working classes to be slaughtered on the fields of Flanders.

In 2016 the establishment is sending out the working classes...

Nah.

She's no fool.

Her Majesty's biographer, Robert Lacey, reported the Queen's comments and suggested they may mean the Queen favours withdrawal from the European Union.

There are how many people in the United Kingdom?

How many deaths have resulted as a consequence of the tensions between political parties and political ideologies, let alone Remain/Leave?

Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?

I don't think the passports will be exchanged. When they expire they'll be replaced with the new ones without the EU logo at the head.

Will we bring back the blue passports? That would be nice...

A very well written editorial from the Spectator backing Brexit. It won't change any of your views if you've already decided, but still worth reading. If you are firmly Remain and believe in the EU...

Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?

The poll at the top of this thread currently stands at 42% remain and 58% leave.

I wonder how close to the final results it will be? If I had the guts I'd wager at 57% leave to 43% remain ;)

Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?

Why?



I won't tell you what to vote for (oh, presumptive arrogance) but these are how you can vote:

1. Vote for what you think benefits you and only you in the short run.

Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?

I agree with you to an extent.

If we had not had the massive non-EU immigration, particularly under New Labour in the 1990s-2010, then the EU migration post 2004 wouldn't be so problematic for the...

Re: The Brexit; Are you in or out?
