EU referendum

[spionfox]

the certain further fall in the pound if the UK voted to leave the EU.

Any fall would certainly not be certain and would certainly be a minor blip before a certain rise again.

Certainly.

That's certainly not what the financial markets have spent the last week pricing in. But just like the economists, these experts in their field don't know a thing, eh?

I rely on the Daily Mail to tell me what to think on important social, moral and political matters. So this has left me totally confused.

It is good to be confused on this. I watched part of the TV debate last night and the audience were rapturously applauding every point of the side they agreed with and hostile to everything said by the other side. This is a matter where sensible people are going to be confused.
Although I will vote Leave (with some uncertainty) I thought Sadiq Khan and Ruth Davidson were the most impressive but surely the TUC could have put forward less emotional, and silly. Like the Natalie Bennett "car crash" interview at the last election she was just embarrassing.

Hopefully the winning side will realise that a substantial number of voters disagree with them and the losing side are not stupid.
Hopefully the losing side will accept that the result is the will of the voters and is valid for a generation.
Hopefully the result will be clear. It is essential to avoid a situation like the American election of 2000.

I'd like Blarev's view on the relationship Norway has with the EU, but from my point of view they have had to accept free movement of labour and pay in to the EU around 20% less per head of population that we do ( I read these numbers a few weeks ago, so apologies if they are a bit out ), but they don't get a vote at the table. Again, Blarev can speak for this better that I, but I reckon they are prosperous mainly because they have a relatively small population compared to their enormous oil and gas reserves.

I think that's quite accurate.

I wish I could think of dead people to back up my argument. Perhaps not, the world has moved on a bit since 1975, not least the fact that I no longer sport a mullet.

Germany

"We'll acknowledge the Wembley goal

We'll stop making jokes about Prince Charles's ears

...
We'll stop using sun cream on the beach out of solidarity with your sunburn

We'll reserve a place with our towels for you on the hotel sun-lounger

We'll introduce tea breaks

We'll turn our clocks back an hour to be in synch with you

We'll do without a goalie in penalty shoot-outs with you to make it a bit more exciting

We'll send (German national football manager) Joachim Low to guard your Crown Jewels

We'll introduce an EU regulation banning a frothy head on beer

We'll all come along to the Queen's 100th birthday

We'll willingly provide the villain in every Bond film"

Leave it is, then. Wow.

 

[bocadillo]

Does this mean we are out of the Champions League without kicking a ball?

 

[Mawsley]

Can we get some Belgian beer take outs on our way out? And maybe some waffles and croissants for the journey?

 

[bocadillo]

TB's view not representative of the whole country, then. Wow.

 

[pork pie fox]

Won me some money, at least.

I was apprehensive when Tony Blair swept into power after the lengthy period of Tory rule. But guess what? The world was still turning the next morning and the apocalypse didn't actually happen as predicted. Same this time then. Just want all the doom and gloomers in the media to **** right off now and leave Britain to get on with things.

Britain getting on with it was why I voted remain. The idea of us having full control of our country is worrying to me.

To be fair I doubt it will be full control, there will be some twists and turns yet.

How much will GB save by leaving?

 

[homer]

Every penny of that about to spent to prevent complete and utter political, economic and financial meltdown

Good old Britain. That'll show 'em

I am bored of reading that the 17.5m who voted to leave are xenophobic; the nastiness has reached even higher levels

The book of Face and twatter have completely imploded this morning - stay away for your own sanity.
