I think it would help the leave campaign if they could manage to avoid sounding like racist xenophobes who masturbate themselves to sleep over a romanticised view of Britain that never existed.... Given some of the reasons people have given, voting to remain to add to the Conservative civil war would be at least rational. I concur. Stick to the facts that the EU is fundamentally flawed by its inherent corruption, it's undemocratic operations, the fact that trying to be all things to all people serves no one and its inability to reform should be the centre of the Leave vote. Totally with you on this, old chap.

My shower is doing rather well, after I cleaned the head out. I suspect Mr Gusset didn't vote for Mr Blair.... Socialist Workers Party if they were standing.

Gusset, we, of an age, know your sort. You are a professional, lifelong leftie rebel. Every outpouring, every post, every link is designed to incite the masses. It is the classic Trot hymn sheet. If I was on the side of the establishment, I would be voting remain. However, I am not and I believe that you genuinely hate the EU and are uncomfortable with Conrade Corbyn's u-turn. You are going to vote remain because you want to add to the Tory civil war and politik in order to get Comrade Corbyn elected. That's the truth. Mystic Matt strikes again. Who is this we you are speaking for?

I've said I don't know which way to vote, you assert that I do. You are wrong, as I've said several times. I feel it is you oh mighty Mystic one who is not listening. Is this the we you speak of?

Now why on earth would they be willing to grant an extension for the last-minute bone-idle to register to vote? Ahhh. I see. Can you imagine it the other way round? Edited by davenotamonkey (08 Jun 2016 6.43pm)

Probably. If you want a ticket for a big game, you don't leave it until just before kick off to buy one. If you want a taxi on new year's eve, you don't leave it until you want to go home to call one. These people should be banned from voting just for being f***ing thick..

Given some of the reasons people have given, voting to remain to add to the Conservative civil war would be at least rational. Do grow up. The days of screaming "waycist" and "xenofowb" because someone has a different idea of what their country should be are long gone. It makes you look pathetic. The "view" that never existed - you mean freely trading among the rest of the world (all 160+ nations of them) without the need for a continually-federalising political experiment? Yes. Never existed. Here's reality: if the EU's 19th Century customs union approach is so bloody amazing, why has the same model not spawned elsewhere in the world? Are MERCOSUR desperate for a common currency, anthem, flag and president? How about ASEAN? Are they looking to shut off trade with China because it harms their protectionist ideals? No. These countries trade: sometimes freely, often successfully, and without the cold, dead hand of bureaucratic cronyism stifling their productivity and competitiveness. We are fcuking MAD not to join them.

Good point. People from our former colonies often appear to have a greater affinity with the British than other Europeans. You could even say that some, if not many, (given the opportunity) would have a greater affinity to British working opportunities...than the British! I think that we underestimate the reality within modern day Britain how many key public services are addressed by such immigrants of whom we should be extremely thankful for, given that in SOME CASES, Brits didn't want the jobs themselves.

I should also add that the former were also better trained / qualified and appreciative of the working opportunity.

There will still be immigration. The issue for most people who want to leave is uncontrollable immigration.

With so much of our infrastructure belonging to foreign companies , will we be able to make them British again if we leave? Surely that is the patriotic way?
