Our door needs closing so we can build some homes for the people already here. No point letting more people in when we can't house the ones already here

The government could use some of the £350 million they will be saving a week to build some new affordable housing, and it should only be available to people who have resided here for 15yrs at least. That would stop all this buying from abroad overnight.
It may well be that the younger generation will sway the vote to in.

However with attitudes displayed by the contributor at 2:48 it would appear they don't care for anyone over 25? I think if I had been in the more mature and respectful group she would have been RESPECTFULLY reminded that she may not reach her 26(?) birthday.

Also at 2:34 - jeoprordise???? So we have someone training to be a teacher and who wants to work abroad as a teacher who cor spake propa. God help us.

I work with a number of foreign colleagues. One an engineer from Romania, fantastic guy, gentlemen and a good engineer. His stories about the Romanian revolution are gripping. Another from China, brain the size of a planet with a Phd. in electrical engineering. Both say we should remain, however the rest of my colleagues are for out, my family and friends around the country are the same.

Interesting times ahead. Trump as President, UK out of the EU by the end of the year.

The arrogance and disrespect of that young "lady" would only serve to confirm my decision to vote to get the hell out. And if I was voting to remain, would completely reverse my decision.

I am fed up of listening to it too, I wonder if we'd get our fishing waters back?
Norway I believe . So where does that get the 'leavers' ? looks like the present situation .
Problem is that there is no right or wrong Its all guesswork and probability .

We wouldn't have to be a part of the EEA though. Iceland, Liechtenstein & Norway chose that route, but I wonder if you asked them now, if they'd choose it again?

I started off with heart saying Leave in big letters and head saying Remain because it’s not the best time to do it, save it for another day.

After seeing Frau Merkel opening the door to anybody and then cosying up to Erdogan (not the nicest man on the planet) with murmurs of reviving Turkey’s application for EU membership, added to the blatant lies and abject panic of the Remainders, I’m afraid to say my mind has changed to one of Leave for our own security.

Even if everything they threaten actually happens, it’s a price worth paying to avoid the consequences of freedom of movement that could lead to insurrection by EU Treaty.

We do not carry the casting vote in Council, we are, in spite of existing EU trade and the wider world economy, a minor political partner under the axis of Germany and its junior captive lacky France.

I just hope the moronic Trump is trumped by Clinton. And I never thought I’d back that silly filly either.

Interesting how different the bookies are from the polls. I think some bookies are 1/6 to remain in. Out is 7/2.

Guess the bookies are more accurate? Didn't they get it right with the election last year and the Scottish referendum?
