It's a sham he's such an unbelievably corrupt dick utterly in thrall to Murdoch.
Sort of off topic, but I took a module in population dynamics at uni and my lecturer told us something that blew my mind.
Sometimes for the fisherman, the best economic choice is to fish stocks to extinction and invest the money you make, because a lot of sea creatures replenish stocks at a slower rate than the average return on investments.
Basically you can't trust the fishing industry to make the right choice on fishing levels, they need to be regulated from the outside.

yep, it was a shit show
Osbourne, I am going to fuck anyone over who votes leave
57 Tory MP's....no you are not George, if you do we will block it
George, fuck you and your 57 Horses, Labour will help me push budget through
Corbyn: Labour will not support any Brexit punishment budget
George Osbourne
OK I think I have it worked out. Firstly I refuse to believe an evolved ape would be this incompetent. I have to believe at this point that everything the remain side are doing is aimed at NOT convincing leavers but SCARING the ever loving fuck out of people that want to remain. They want to scare their remain supporters so much that they will actually go out and vote to ensure that leave does not win.
The only other reality is that Georgie and Davie really are incompetent fuckwits and neither should be in charge of a Kebab stand let alone a multi-trillion dollar country
There you have it folks, anything not decided by referendum is not democracy. In case you haven't noticed you live in an indirect democracy where you elect representatives to a governing body. These representatives are then supposed to make informed decisions on your behalf, in order to avoid situations like, I dunno, an uninformed electorate voting themselves out of an economic bloc they massively benefit from due to race-baiting and utter lies from wealthy opportunists and their media backers.
Maybe you should take a glance at your monarchy and house of lords if you are indeed a champion of democracy? Both of which being utterly undemocratic compared to the EU.
You haven't a fucking clue, unsurprisingly. If you think either republicans are going to tolerate British border checkpoints, or unionists are going to tolerate reunification, you are bonkers. The rest of this is utter drivel, Northern Ireland more than anywhere else in the UK deals with the reality of bordering the EU on a daily basis and has benefitted massively from this, but now the livelihoods of the populace are at risk thanks to the lies of the Leave campaign.
And if you don't want to spend money on Northern Ireland then you're kind of fucked when the EU pulls out the massive investments it has made since the Good Friday agreement.
The EU is a fucking economic bloc, what are you even talking about now? Any involvement in foreign wars is due to your membership of NATO and the UN, except when you ignore their advice to follow America into the Middle East. Nothing to do with the EU.

Funny seems to me he sidesteps answering the questions. Would be nice if he actually answered some of the questions about financial consequences but he just ignores them and starts changing the subject, just like Cameron.
Worked for two elections. Though it doesn't work when your ex-mates want to pull a Julius Caesar on you.
Well honestly, what else could have happened? Tories are a member of Alliance of European Conservatives and Reformists and thus aligned with European Conservatives and Reformists in the EP. It's an eurosceptic party and group and there are some notable European nationalist parties in there. This should give some implication of their stance in and of the EU. Granted, ECR is not as crazy as EFDD or ENL, but to have Tories leading the remain campaign could only end in what we've seen.

Also worked in the Indy Refendum here in Scotland, won't work next time, since they all lied about our EU status being safe in UK.
But he does it a little less and seems far more confident when doing so. All MP's side step stuff, but Gove seems to not get annoyed etc when doing so. When Cameron and Osborne do the same, you can see them both panicking.
what he did was presume that Labour and anyone on remain would simply back him with his punishment rhetoric....
probably any other Labour leader might of done so to win, But Corbyn is unique in that way, and so when he said live at PMQ's he would not be supporting it, privately it would of been hugely embarrassing...
The PM tried to gloss it over by saying they did not want a budget either

I think Gove's learned from his experiences as the Secretary of State for Education, for better or for worse.
and I expect privately he hates Cameron for pulling him off that, he took years of flak to push reforms through, GE loomed and he got fucked over
That and EU black hole, taking our money is all I hear people shouting about. People in the coffee shop recently chatting about getting out breed, our services can't handle more people, they're all looking for hand outs, wait until Turks etc. arrive in their thousands. They talk like it's the end of days.
They are a loud bunch but hopefully not a majority.
Well, sort of, behind the blanket term of 'sovereignty'
Did anyone read AA Gills take on Brexit? It was really good.
Isn't it ironic now that one of the main discussions during the Scottish referendum campaign was how Scotland won't get into EU that easily and by voting No they actually voted to get out of the EU anyhow if the Brexit goes on?
Gives them another excuse to hold another referendum to get out if leave wins.

Which polls are those?

Yeah it was one of my concerns and hence why I voted to stay in UK, to say I'm pissed would be an understatement and I'm fucking raging but that's life, any future no campaign will have serious questions now over that, no one will believe them, thankfully.

That and the fish are gonna fucking get it.
no, the odds, yesterday you could get 1.67 on remain, now best is 1.5

Ah, okay. I keep forgetting people bet on this sort of thing. So morbid. >_<

Better than the EuroWasps, those things are enormous. I'd join UKIP to keep them out.
so overclokers done a poll and surprised at the result as quite a balanced forum
Wasn't the owner a BNP member at some point?
changed hands since that lunatic was in charge
Whats that got to do with the poll even if it was the same guy ?
I probably wouldn't post on GAF if Evilore was using ad revenue to fund ultra right wing groups

As a Canadian watching from the sidelines and now looking at more articles, videos, etc... about it
It seems that it is really split and can prove to go either way with the Exit party gaining more and more favour.
At least I can say things are getting interesting with the world.
I wonder if Birtain will try to get even closer relationships with its former common wealth countries if they do indeed leave.

Clearly my information is (many, I'm older than I thought) years out of date, but I remember there being a reasonable BNP following on there a few years back.. You don't think that the owner of a sites politics shapes the type of community it attracts? I swore off OCUK when the BNP story landed, and since got out of PC building so haven't had a reason to revisit who owns the place.
The Reddit effect (TM).

the slogan is
Make UK great again ?
Farage at one point definitely said they would look for closer relationships with the Commonwealth.
Locked behind the times paywall. :/
I've just sent off mine and saw a "this is final" warning -
I'm fairly sure that normal elections you can override a postal vote by turning up on the day.

I can't see it making any difference, unless the UK and US governments make an agreement to make it easier.
But as American, it's pretty easy to move towards most countries isn't it already?
Not really. Basically Micronesia and Palau.
So, Nottinghamscience YT channel has released two videos about Science and Europe and the brexit vote. Both are basically just interviews, but they cover some points that are not talked about in the debate.
