Unless someone can change my mind then I`m the in vote based on my rights as a Human Being, something that seems to get forgotten about
Ken.
EDIT: meaning that I feel I am more protected being in rather than trusting our governments.

if we stay in by the narrowest vote I wonder if anything thats been said as to why we should leave will be taken any notice of and changes made.

for example, if we can only sell only oranage cars on sundays cos we are in and the out compain say we will be able to sell any car we like if we leave, will the government campain to change the rules on what colour cars we sell on a sunday?

even if we stay in, i wonder if the out vote is a shot across the bows and if the government will do anything, to take up the fight of the issues those that want out support.

I can understand your personal reason for staying in, what I can't understand is being dictated to by some over paid jobs worth in a foreign country, can't understand why we are sending countless billions to countries who governments are milking the system to their own end, what are we gaining by allowing thousands so called immigrants who are taking advantage of our generous wage and benefits system, and sending that money back home because they have a lower cost of living.
We don't know what deals Cameron has agreed with Merkel, but be assured it ain't too our advantage, Charity begins at home, so let's use those millions to keep undesirable out and use that money for our own use.

So bring the insults on.

Rev.

It's probably fair to say if the result is Remain, even by a tiny majority, that will be sufficient and acceptable to the government. If the result is Leave by a tiny majority, that will be sufficient for the government to overturn it on the spurious grounds that it's contrary to the national interest so they can ignore it. That's before we get around to squabbles about voting irregularities and leaving polling stations open beyond advertised times.

Yip, I didn't get that one either. We have been in for decades and our fuel prices have been far higher than Germany for most if not all of that time!

Isn't the UK in line for major fines by the EU supreme courts for failing to keep within set CO2 limits last year & this year!

I dare say they've got some expensive Implementation's for the motorist here.

I read that the UK exceeded it's whole years CO2 limits in the first 8 days of 2016.
