We are being told (mainly by the BBC so we have to assume the message is already biased) that the various OUT groups are involved in vicious infighting with each other.
Since at the end of the day each person will go into a voting booth on their own and mark their X where they want to, does this alleged infighting really matter?
As long as people exercise their vote (hopefully for OUT) does it matter which out group they support?
Could just be rumour but I have heard that the vote papers are to be marked in pencil rather than the usual wax pencil?
If this might be the case, I am taking an indelible pencil in with me to mark my vote with that. The problem with that, is that it could be dismissed by the powers that be, as a spoiled ballot paper and discarded.
Absolutely all my friends and acquaintances, every one I know personally, have stated that they are voting OUT, I literally do not know anyone who will be voting for IN. the result of the referendum will one of the most interesting demonstrations of whether or not we really are a free people in our lifetimes.

If we vote IN, we will soon discover we will never be a free people again (at least for the next couple of generations).

From discussion, I am convinced the press are being encouraged to muddy the OUT groups and will stop at nothing to claim so-called infighting. So, let us all get real for a moment. There are only three Brexit campaign groups, each representing different interest areas. The important point is that it does not matter about the campaign groups. What does matter is the country's electorate having the intelligent balls to collectively vote OUT.

Re the pencil rumour...it's probably just that, a rumour, and I wouldn't be concerned about it. Where we should be concerned is to ensure the Brexit voters secure such a large majority, irrespective of any potential messing with votes, that the result is unequivocally OUT. No ifs, no buts...an absolute OUT.

I have seen some polls over the past weeks confirming 68% are voting OUT. If this level is secured it will be the end of CMD and the arrival of a very exiting future for the UK. 68% is an even greater result than general elections and could well be the urgently needed nail in the EU coffin and would encourage other countries to follow suit.

Thank you, handpaper. I'm feeling most embarrassed at such a typo'. Will edit accordingly and my best wishes to all Poles who want out of the EU.

At the risk of sounding like a stick in the mud, this thread is suspiciously close to campaigning and electioneering, there's lot's of threads discussing the issues around the referendum, do we need this one too?

No, you're not being a stick in the mud. Posted as the dates should be shared and as yet they're not on the GO website. No campaigning, no electioneering, just sharing of news to one and all.

Probably not, unless they've gained full UK citizenship. I believe the same rules will apply for the referendum that apply to other elections. UK citizens living in the EU will be able to vote though.

No, anyone with a basic understanding of trade, economics, and the benefits that the EU offers to all member states will vote to stay. Unfortunately, that discounts the vast majority of Sun and Daily Fail readers immediately.

Come on then, what do I get for the £55m a day that Britain pays?

Well the £55million figure is a bit of a myth as I'm sure you're aware but what we get is "guaranteed" access to the worlds largest market place and a say in how that market place is administered and organised.
