Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

No VIC it's 4 ,i don't know where you get your inflated figures from !

It's catching .

Million?

I've just been out counting them it's 5 .

.

That charity worker went to Romania to help children ,it's unpaid that doesn't count .

Sorry jimmy I was using my imagination .

Today

That's better.

The latest poll of polls ( mean of 6 over last week) has it at 53:47. Turn out will be the key. Just ensure that you vote and ignore the polls. The bookies had Leicester at 5000:1.

Be careful what you wish for Fred.

There was another poll in the same paper besides the one put up by Haystacks(1971) Which was an online poll(I think the one in the graph(1971) was a phone poll?) that put the LEAVE side ahead, maybe someone can put that up?..

You are strange Hays , you say you want to leave but any chance of telling us the remainers lead in a poll and your in there .

Yes he never put the online poll up which gave a LEAVE side in lead..

Well most people I talk with are definite LEAVE voters, the same with the letters pages in newspapers, an overwhelming majority want to LEAVE.

On the economic argument we export less now to the EU than we did in the 1970's, and with Europe now being a much smaller piece of the global cake, it makes sense to go after the bigger slice as well, rather than confine ourselves to just the decreasing EU slice.

Well George what would we export to Romania , except anything that gets umm shall we say acquired . same for quite a few of the new lot too .

I think Haystack is a closet Remainian .

I think he says that to keep people off his back , he would marry Dave .

CBI - Wrong then wrong now
Last night, Lord Howard delivered a speech where he criticised the CBI’s record on the EU. The big business lobby group wants the UK to stay in the EU at any cost, but they have a dismal history when it comes to European issues.
In 1992 they called on the UK to join the Exchange Rate Mechanism, which was a disaster for our economy with interest rates rising to 15%, plunging homeowners across the country into negative equity. They then campaigned for the UK to join the Euro, which would have been disastrous.
The CBI does not represent British business. It speaks for the multinationals who support the EU because it works in their favour. They can afford expensive corporate lobbyists and large compliance departments to make the rules benefit their own interests. There is no better example of this than with the companies who have signed a letter today saying we should stay in the EU - last year these multinational firms together spent between €15.3 million and €17.65 million lobbying the European Commission.
Brussels is good for big businesses and fat cats who care about their bonuses, but it is bad for smaller businesses and entrepreneurs. The British people will not be bullied into voting to stay in by large corporates who are only looking out for their profit margin. On 23 June we will take back control of our economy and democracy to allow businesses to thrive and UK plc to prosper.
