I am more optimistic. I still think that it is 50-50. The bookies are putting remain as favourites, although the odds have really narrowed. I am still banking on project fear working through, especially with the old gits fearing for their pensions.It would need an Istanbul to turn this now:

My prediction is 60/40 Brexit on the day.
Splendid article in there too by Polly Toynbee as to why Remain are losing that totally reflects my own experiences talking to some workmates, neighbours and family. Utterly pointless now demolishing the £350m, NHS 'branded' lie - they know, even the thickest of them, but it's a two-fingered response to what they call 'Project Fear'. Well Project Fear is coming to dry hump them with a vengeance over the next year, and I wonder whether Boris Pollard and Gove-adder will balance the books with huge tax rises or austerity on stilts? Except that I don't.
Net result in five years time? There'll still be as many non-white faces about (let's be honest, this is what it's all about) which will be handy for Nigel and the far right when the poverty bites - the scapegoats will be easily identifiable. And please, though I'll be there myself in just over a decade, make the bastard old ****s suffer by cutting their triple-locked pensions; they voted for this spitefest and they deserve some spite back.
It would be a shame if those who only have a few years left thwart the will of the youngsters who have a lifetime to live their lives.
