Hmmm, Tesco is quiet tonight. Clearly, Brexit fear striking again. What more proof do you want?

87% of prisoners are British- the clear solution is to remove British people and crime will be nearly decimated.

Ah, was so close to a great point too. 

Anyway, another advantage of removing 87% of the population is that there are way less potential victims, thus crime is bound to fall even further.  :/  #shitstats

Removing the native population means there will be noone to blame foreigners for crimes. If ppl arent bother by crimes it doesnt count.

If you decimate something then you cut it to a tenth of what is was [/pedantry]

The argument was getting silly so I made a reductio ad absurdum point.

My English teacher used to take great pleasure in telling us it was reduce by 10%, so like I said, it was so close to a great point. 

It seems that these days, as with much English, those that used to be wrong are now right.  You can also now use it to reduce by a large amount.

Yeah it's reduce by a tenth. Pretty sure there was a discussion on here last year about "octimating" a pizza when you take a slice.

wondering out loud

it is Labour voters who remain needs to turnout and vote to win

polls show tory voters are around 50-50 remain-leave at most

labour splits about 65-35 remain

why then does the remain camp put up david cameron, for example on this mornings Marr, to make the case time after time?

why wouldn't you put up (say) corbyn, tom watson, angela eagle, chris leslie, kier starmer, dan jarvis whoever you think influences most non-tory voters or undecideds?

i don't get the tactics of it.

like cameron or not its the same as anything, once you hear someone say the same thing for the 18th time you tune out.
