No - I am afraid that a fair and straight forward vote will be cast aside because some
cry babies, immature idiots and lazy thick people claimed they didn't understand it.


You just don't get it do you ?

Or maybe you do, and don't care.

A big factor in this referendum, unless you want to claim
otherwise is fear of immigration.

Now whether you like it or not, and whatever the opinions
of individual citzens may be, among all the advanced nations
at least, there's always been a tacit agreement that immigration
itself is never made an explicit election issue. Basically
because it stirs up emotions which aren't the best basis
on which to base sound decisions. However People can assume
what the position of the various parties is likley to be by
speeches by MP's etc.

Similarly immigration is never made an issue because doing so
can generate dilslike of existing immigrants, hardly the
wisest thing to do in a country such a the UK with a
large 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation immigrant population.

Oh BTW and the fact that many Indians IME consider West Indians
to be typically stupid and gullible, while conversely many
West Indians consider Indians to be typically sly and self serving
is neither here nor there. There's no point IMO in
throwing even more fat on the fire.

Basically the judgement of anyone making decisions
on the basis of an emotional aversion to immigrants, which
could have a catastrophic effect on the UK economy and the
country itself, simply isn't to be trusted. It really is
as simple as that.

And as it happens voting out hasn't put a stop to the
uncontrolled immigration in any case. Unless the UK is willing
to accept a rubbish deal we can all look forward to a further
two years worth all rushing to beat any deadline, as I
predicted a week or so ago. And if anyone thinks the EU
including the likes of Poland will grant the UK a deal
allowing deportations they really are living in cloud cuckoo
land.

Basically everyone agrees uncontrolled immigration is a
bad thing. But as with the nephew advising the old man
about a video card a week ago, any idiot can identify a
problem. The difficulty lies in coming up with a solution

But it takes and even bigger idiot to both identify
a problem which is obvious to everyone, and then propose
a solution which will actually make things worse.
