Cats and dogs, living together. Mass hysteria!

I don't know why people are going "this should not be for the people to decide, we should let our MP's decide". I mean our MP's are just as moronic as the public. These so called MP's are not some bastions of intellect, they are just as ill informed as the rest of us and just as biased/racist as the rest of us.
On another note. Yesterday I posted an add from the Hungarian Government asking the UK to remain, it seems today is Polands turn :-
The Polish Govt projected the Union Jack onto a building in Warsaw as a show of support for remain. Apparently they kinda cocked it up a bit because it is "upside down" or something. I wouldn't know really, never been much of a flag person.

Inverted flags are considered antagonistic in their message, but that's only a thing for anal retentive protocol experts.I don't know why people are going "this should not be for the people to decide, we should let our MP's decide".

Will the average person even know about Hungary or Poland doing these things?
Also, with some of the people I know, the Hungary message may convince them even more so to leave.
The U.K. is a vital and large component of the EU sanctions. Without the UK there wouldn't have been the sanctions over the Ukraine, for example. One of the things the UK contributes to Europe is diplomacy and foreign policy action - both the EU and the U.K. Will be significantly weaker and less able to act on the world stage should Brexit occur.
This is about as accurate as the twitter one, at 80% leave
No because they only read the sun and are clutching their fast boil kettles.

Tiny sample survey in unreliable outcome shock!
Can the average person even find Hungary on a map?

But doesn't it seem fair that the son's bad behaviour should merit some form of punishment?
And that it's unfair that the other son now has to share his inheritance??
It's all very well to say well God's love / heaven / whatever is infinite, but we live in the real world. I would be mightily agrieved if my brother got his inheritance now, pissed it all away and then got half of mine in 30 years time.
Actually my brother is way more financially successful than me irl, so this is all hypothetical.

Not if they have been using vote leaves maps since they tend to leave out country names.

Bit depressed, it seems that vote out as got some traction. Just hope it is just a vocal select as they normally are.

Poland wanting the UK to remain, for the life of me I can not imagine why.....and if they cared so much their PM should not of been such a dick about Camerons reforms
On the other hand, there's a positivity around Europe getting together to play a game that might work against them.

It's easy to spot once you know how. On the left side of the flag, the larger white diagonal lines should always be above the red lines. (Scotland above Ireland).

Depends on the mentality of the fans while the English were singing "we fucking hate Europe" the Welsh were singing " we are staying in, we love Europe.
What will be will be. Democracy is a choice. Hopefully it will be demonstrated tomorrow that it works.
But I turned my phone upside down and it looks the same.
We were the main country pushing for Poland to be admitted. In EU politics Poland is often allied with the UK in terms of decision making. Plus, you know, our public sector finances have benefited hugely from immigration and are reliant on them for the future.

You probably rotated your phone by 180 degrees. That's not the same thing as turning your phone upside down in the way you would need to to have the correct part of the flag at teh top (because in that case, the screen would be facing away from you)

Not only is at least 50% of it bullshit (and the bits that have a kernel of truth are not necessarily as simple etc etc), it's AWFUL in its design. Cack-handed.

If the flagpole is on the left, the broad white stripe should be uppermost in the top-left quadrant. If there's no flagpole, it is assumed to be on the left. So the Poles got their slide back to front.
Guilty as charged.

The Polish PM was doing his job and looking after his people. Just like Davey was doing his job looking after his business interests
Even as a Leave voter I can acknowledge it is nice gesture on behalf of the Polish Government. It certainly makes a change from all the threats the EU have been chucking our way.
And the rugby team is doing that thing where they appear to have a lot of promise just to get our hopes up.

Oh you should definitely watch the last couple of minutes of that. It had a great bit about the EU national Anthem video and there was a great lil song at the end which made me chuckle. Just watch it from the 12 min mark till the end.

How many Polish people work outside Poland in the EU? A lot. That's why.
Poland is also having some issues and fears about Russia. NATO is arming up in the east partly because of them. They are even training a militia in case of an occupation. Might seem to us a bit of an overreaction, but given the country's history, I can't blame them. A stronger EU is very much in their interest because of this.
Fill your boots, fella. Not to blow smoke, but I for one always look forward to your well-informed and well-articulated views!
I guess but the rest of the uk doesn't matter, England can drag all of us out even if we all vote stay.
That's fair because reasons.

Going straight to the polling booth after work tomorrow, both me and the fiancé are placing leave votes.

Yes, the threats are unpleasant to be sure. We should emphasize the fact that we want a shared future with the United Kingdom. That we want to work together on building a more prosperous and peaceful Europe. That we know things are far from perfect, but that we want to work together to make them better.
It's unfortunate that leaders opt for threats out of fear for the consequences of a British departure, rather than emphasizing that we want to build a future together.
