"Leave.......looking favourite at the mo? But favourites don't always win...may get better odds on stay? At what point might you cash out tho....?" Remain is currently favourite but only just @ 8/13 Leave is 5/4 with skybet.. A week ago it was 1/4 remain so there has been quite a shift. . | |||

"I think it's a bit of a class and north south divide most ordinary working class will vote out and most people in professional jobs will vote remain so I don't think either side worth a punt it's going 51%to 49%one way or the other " I think it'll be more than 5% to remain. The media and reality are not well acquainted. People with the weakest logic are usually the ones who need to shout the loudest to be heard. | |||

"its got to be leave for me im affraid. no one in there right mind would want to stay in especialy where this country is in shit , so were outers..hehehe " Thought we were the 5th largest economy in the world? | |||

Way too many people shouting very loud with their fingers in their ears that quitting is the new world order. Truth is I personally feel in a minority in most (if not all) of my real and virtual groups where the future of the U.K. is discussed. I p_edict a convincing exit (protest) vote but it will take so long to exit and there will be a gradual dawning of realisation of the economic consequences that a future election will actually put the question to bed, and we will stay. | |||

"If we all vote to leave will Bob Geldof fuck off?" If we all vote remain will Farage fuck off? At least he hasn't promised to quit this time if he doesn't get his way. | |||

"If we all vote to leave will Bob Geldof fuck off?" I didn't realise he was involved, probably needs some more royalties from his Monday song | |||

"im betting it will be fixed anyway " I truly believe this cannot happen. I have attended lots of vote counts and the checks and balances in place really seem watertight. | |||

"This depresses me somewhat. Gambling on the fate of the country. Sad times. " The implied ignorance in this statement is sad! | |||
"Most 18 to 30 will vote to stay in due to left wing teachers from school and no idea of life other than university.Well paid jobs in banking sector will stay in.Working class and pensioners will vote out because our city and towns are no longer the same due to mass immigration" Most people finish university by 21 or 22! | |||

" Jesus, all this petty name calling from both sides. If you want to be ruled by Germany with no say in what happens to our country then vote to remain and end up like Greece " Thanks, 4/11 says most people do want that | |||
" Jesus, all this petty name calling from both sides. If you want to be ruled by Germany with no say in what happens to our country then vote to remain and end up like Greece as Germany tightens the screws and makes everybody dependent on the 4th Reich. It seems to many people are happy to forget that generations of good people died to stop this happening. " Really? You're pulling the Nazi card as a reason to leave the EU? I'm not sure why I'm surprised though. | |||

" Yeah.... don't really think bringing Hitler into it is the most convincing argument, or the most ridiculous, I have heard so far. But our forefathers gave their lives at Flanders and beyond , along with Polish and other "foreigners" so that we might live in harmony and peace and with understanding.

"Yes i agree. My comments are more about the bile and bull crap being spouted by both sides. It's a "fact" we give away billions of pounds an hour. It's a "fact" that if we leave a tidal wave will destroy us... I genuinely struggle to work out where the real facts are. " There aren't any!! How can you have facts about what specific people will do in future? We don't know whether Merkel will fuck us over or not. We're not sure if China would give us a trade deal better than what we would get from within the EU Maybe we could pull off a trade union with commonwealth countries, maybe we couldn't. It's just a matter of probability, not fact. | |||
"To a symphony of dog whistles, we are heading for the idiot option " Can't make the positive case for staying in the EU, so resort to petty name calling, sums up the Remain campaign perfectly. | |||
| |||
"If we all vote to leave will Bob Geldof fuck off? I didn't realise he was involved, probably needs some more royalties from his Monday song" Didn't you see Geldof with Remain campaigners giving the wanker sign to fisherman on the Thames the other day who were campaigning for vote Leave? | |||

" By leaving the EU we won't be isolating ourselves, we will be opening ourselves up to the whole world. It is the EU which is the isolationist organisation. " We're becoming decreasingly important on the world stage, as other states overtake us. England or one of the UK states could also help isolate itself from other union members - so your assertion is wrong on many levels. One may be available to the whole world, just as having a phone number is -it doesn't mean itll ever ring. All the younger people that I know want to remain. People who are forward thinking want in, though rose tinted specs types want the glory of the old days. They're gone. The UK has to continue with an agreement with Europe, where we'll just be a poodle state. We'll be subject to their rules but not able to make them. More than anything this seems to be a case of little englanders, more than ever before. | |||

"What price it rains at Glastonbury, Mr J ??" I can look out of my window and tell you. On the plus side, my unparalleled access enables me to slip in to the green zone and out again with ease. I'll chuck up some tents, have a paddle and then come home to my lovely, watertight home tonight. | |||

"Both the opinion polls and the bookmakers can be wrong.. (perhaps bookies less likely to have it wrong) Why is it that the polls suggest it is very close..neck and neck. ..yet the bookmakers are making it a one horse race..Do Ladbrokes have more info? Inside knowledge?.conduct more thorough polling? Is the close call to get more people to vote? Or make it more dramatic? Anyone know? Joe? " Because they measure different things. It's empirical fact that the bookies will inadvertently produce more accurate results. It's not the bookies themselves that set them in that respect, it's the fact that the bookies represent the collective knowledge of a much larger sample. Fuck knows who they find to take these polls but I don't know anyone who has ever participated and they seem to find every cretin going to add to their sample. Maybe they make house calls while everyone else is at work? | |||

"Thought you may have the answer.. still find it odd that they (Hills Coral etc)should be more clued up.. The funding /research into opinion polls should be really top notch by now... We will know very soon if it is gonna be a photo finish or not..rain p_edicted so some of us lazy bastards just won't bother voting!!" Think of it another way, the Soviet Union spent millions and millions on a central department whose job it was the 'scientifically' allocate resources around the economy. They spent year and years trying to perfect the system and couldn't even get marginally close of the efficiency of a free market. The fundamental issue with polls is that decision making is both conscious and sub-conscious, with the latter dominating. In other words, most people are consciously aware of why they are doing something so asking them to explain their actions is like asking a creationist to explain dinosaur bones - they are gonna make some shit up! | |||
"Thought you may have the answer.. still find it odd that they (Hills Coral etc)should be more clued up.. " The bookies aren't clued up, they are just facilitating the organisation of collective knowledge. It's the collective knowledge that is clued up! | |||
| |||
"Bookmakers reporting a number of big (20,000 10,000 etc) bets on Britain to stay in the EU.. lot of small (5's 10's etc) bets on us to leave. " Don't act a fool, the odds aren't great. I don't really believe there's less than a 22.5% chance of a no vote and stranger things have happened. Don't mix emotion with betting. | |||
