What %age of Remainistas are actually going to vote though?

Surely there will be a far greater %age of Brexiters at the polls.

Definitely a far greater percentage of them making themselves heard on social media etc.

Given the chat on here I am surprised at the lead Remain has.  Silly old world I guess. 

I spoke to the inlaws last night who voted against independence for Scotland, for so many stupid reasons they read in the sun.  I would have had both shoehorned as Leave voters given their general views in life, but they are remainers.  So very strange.

Shy remainers

those against the status quo holler loudest on social media and forums

those who will vote remain are, generally, less vocal

I started the campaign sitting comfortably in the knowledge that I'd be voting In.

The Remain campaign has managed to switch me to being fairly certain to voting out.  They'd have been better off not campaigning than the adopted policy of 'fear and smear'.

Gut feel is that In wins a narrow victory, 52-48ish at the end of the day (in the real election, not the poll!)

Funny cos I am the exact opposite. Leave campaign is making me want to vote in when I was going to vote out

Same.

I have always been in favour of leaving, but the focus on immigration and the knuckle dragging borish people whose ignorance of the subject is proportional to thier eagreness to speak about it (without ever being courteous enough to listen) has really put me off.

I was telling one such lad in work that I was going to vote in just to cancel out his leave vote to which he called me a "bleeding heart" who was enabling terrorism. I mean do I really want help validate that mindset.

More relevant to this thread I don't mind admitting I am voting out as no-one knows me. But if I'm asked in real life I always say I'm undecided when asked how I'm voting as I don't want to be thought of as a brexiter. Maybe summat similar is happening here.

I was just old enough to remember exit polls predicting a Labour victory in the early 90s and major's Tory party romping (chortle) home. Apparently the Tory party was just toxic enough for people to not want to publically admit supporting them but not enough for them to vote Labour in the privacy of a voting booth.

Given the community here maybe summat similar is happening.

Why are people letting the politicking turn their view 180? Surely it's their assessment of the arguments that are turning them, not the infuriating way that both sides are campaigning?

I started out as happy to remain (and was going to vote) but not being that bothered either way. But after everything I've read and seen, I am solidified in that opinion and now I am staunchly in the remain camp.

I'll be voting remain but i want Brexit to get at least 40% of the total vote. I'd be worried about the lack of pressure for reform otherwise.

What makes you think there would be reform if the remain camp win? Whatever the %age if remain win the EU and the political elite will just get even more powerful and corrupt.

The reforms are already lined up

Remain being a vote for the status quo is just wrong

I've always been a Tory supporter but even I don't believe any of those reforms are a great benefit or provide much comfort if we remain.

Interesting. One for the outers then,what further changes would have made you vote remain?

Feasible or not

Does anyone know what the Muslims will be voting? They're a very close nit community and I'm sure they'll all vote the same like in the elections.

Pretty sure that the Muslims will all be voting to join ISIS.

Who will be counting the votes? What measures are in place to stop rigging? The more I look into politics, the more I see nothing but corruption. It really wouldn't surprise me if it didn't matter what the people vote and whatever benefits the elite the most will go through.

My mates an electrician and he told me whatever the actual result we will stay in..food for thought imo

Yep, all the same, them Muslims.  Certainly never been any wars between groups of Muslims ever given they are so pally with each other. Bet they are doing the counting too.   Still been part of an Islamic state is going to be better than remaining in the EU with the Romanian gangsters and The Pope.

Have been informed the Vatican isn't part of the EU.  Bastards bring out the red carpet for the gangsters but give the finger to The Pope!!!!! We must listen to that blithering idiot Farage and vote leave.

Just for interest, we held a mock referendum at my school last week.

Remains won it with 77% of the vote.


Title: Re: the EU referendum blonde poll
Post by: Graham C on June 20, 2016, 12:48:35 PM
There's a poll of 72000 on the dm and 79% are leave.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/index.html


If we do vote leave and things aren't going too good, can we jump back on board? Is there a cooling off period like when I buy something from pc world?

Only if we keep our receipt

Post by: The Wycher on June 20, 2016, 03:40:47 PM
I understand school nurses are all voting together as they are a close nit group.

I also find it hard to believe that only 79% of Daily Mail readers voted to leave, do you think possibly the vote was invaded by non Mail readers. I suspect that those that voted to remain will be named and shamed.

On a more serious note my Kids (10 & 11) both want to be able to vote (they say its their future we are deciding) and both want to remain.
