    Most of the rights you want protecting pretty much existed in the UK pre EU.

    Gunpowder under Parliament. What referendum? You've had your say, now listen to what will happen. Just three comical outcomes.

    More realistically it could take years to come to fruition and be totally enacted.

    Me and him (Castro) don't disagree; you're guessing wrong. It was never about the relationship between your country and ours. The conversation began on the back of you telling us what we should do, if Brexit is voted in; you told us about responsibilities to the Home countries, in regards to self-determination. You were told you don't understand then you went off on a tangent.

    I'm glad that you're doing well Filey, but I must take task with your reasoning. Every year, multiple 'skilled' people are refused visa applications to work in this country who may be specialists in their field who could and likely would benefit the workforce in this country. We are told as part of the scare campaign that leaving the EU would have a detrimental effect on multiple services not least the NHS. What has been proposed is a point system which would allow nurses, doctors and multiple other skilled people from say, the Philippines, South America et al to come to this country and 'work' paying into society benefiting our economy and culture as has been the case with the amazing help you have had. What will not happen, if we leave the EU is that those EU migrants already here and working will be asked to leave. Those who in the future want to work here from the EU will have to prove like everyone else that they are a benefit and not a drain on society. In short, we could pick who we need and refuse who we don't. That covers farming migrants who would still have access to work here where our residents will not fill those rolls. What it will allow us to do is to stop pick pocket gangs, health migrants and those of low intellect who would have little or no hope of gaining employment in this country. For Cameron to say, 'if after 6 months they haven't got a job they will be asked to leave' is farcical, can you imagine someone walking up to some Greek or other and saying, 'will you go home please'!!!!... the Turkish issue is another and as I have already suggested is a total substantiated smokescreen. There are only so many pizza delivery jobs in this country!!!!!...

    I wasn't referring to your spelling when I said misinformed.

    The Government might fall in the wake of BREXIT. Which could delay the passing of any bill to exit the EU.

    If we do see a GE in the short term then the main parties may adopt a REMAIN stance and if voted into power on that mandate could
    simply ignore the referendum vote saying the GE result over rides it.

    It could get very messy.

    All pure conjecture on my part of course.

    I see little prospect of any result forcing an election and even if it did, who ever was in power they'd have to honour the result of a referendum.

    Suspended temporarily for one thread only, as it was for the general election.

    Have asked 10 of my Hull relations which way they are are voting and its 50/50.

    The odds of 4-1 on for remain with the polls so close is amazing. May have half-a-crown on leave!

    I saw an interview with a bloke from Ladbrokes yesterday, 90% of all bets in the previous 24 hours had been for remain. The average bet amount for leave was £90, the average bet for remain was £440 and the single biggest bet they'd taken (which was for remain) was £25k.

    Texas didn't like something, they tried self determination and was eventually forced back into the United States of America. I thought you'd have known that.

    If the Bremain people are unhappy if we vote Brexit they should go and live in bloody France. Which is a more sensible suggestion than saying people who don't want to be part of the EU should go and live in the EU.
