The EU Referendum

[londonblue]

I've got some;
Straight cucumbers
uniformed size apples,pears etc
Nazi like health and safety rules
and people like you who think they are very clever and talk down to people.(and in your case wearing a stupid backpack with both straps over the shoulders,very uncool)

I think you need to have a look at the EU myths website that referred to earlier.

The Times have come out in favour of Remain.

Where are we at now with official positions from the national papers?

LEAVE - Sun, Mail, Express
REMAIN - Times

I assume The Mirror and Guardian are in the Remain camp but haven't seen anything official so please correct me if I have missed them. Any others?

Racing Post have been pretty quiet so far.

Couldn't cut and paste the full editorial from behind the paywall,could you?

Rather p***** over the bonfire that all Murdoch press are the same.

Observer & Sunday Mail are Remain, the latter is quite a shock.

Observer & Sunday Mail are Remain, the latter is quite a shock.

I've also noticed a marked change in tone regarding Brexit on the Mail Online in recent days too.

Strange, especially considering a lot of stablemates have taken opposing sides. If anything this should be ample evidence that newspapers and their moguls can't be trusted to present balanced opinions because, at the end of the day, they only cater for their audience.

Strangest one is the Times. All other Murdoch outlets - The Times' Sunday edition included - have taken the opposing view. Have to wonder if there's been something of an editorial revolt there similar to what happened with the Hillsborough verdict a few months ago.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Backed 'Remain' at 1.60 a couple of days ago.

Don't get that rate of interest down the Nationwide...

The FT is Remain.

Brilliant editorial in today's Sunday Telegraph, in favour of Leave, obviously: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/opinion/...leave-to-create-a-britain-fit-for-the-future/

to be far to Farage it has to be said that Gove has done the wrong thing many many times

Indeed, ask school teachers and prison officers!

Had a very heated discussion with my daughter on Saturday night where she suggested to me that my views were "racist". This is the trouble with a large number of young people these days, who see any criticism of a system where immigrants are granted various things of benefit as being racist. Apparently the worst thing I said was that there are large parts of the East End where you can no longer find a white face - again, not racist, but simply a fact.

I tried to explain that this country has always welcomed immigrants, particularly in the 50s with large influxes of West Indian and Middle Eastern families. The huge difference is that these people integrated and adopted/adapted to our way of living, and far too many of those currently arriving have no wish to do so.

I was actually quite surprised that someone on the front line of immigration working as she does on border force, would be in favour of "remain".

The vast majority of young people I speak to are in favour of 'remain', which is my main reason for voting 'remain' as well.
If you had your children's (and grandchildrens) interest at heart, please think very carefully before voting out.

We have. Because we older and wiser and have lived with the EU's corruption and failures, we have to do what's best for them. Even if it that means you aren't very 'cool', then so what.

Nope.

"I was actually quite surprised that someone I trust with hands-on, front line experience of a particular issue would disagree with my stance on said issue, but I'm going to patronise them anyway."

Really?!

Also, I've said this before. Is it really a good idea to criticise your child on a public internet forum where lots of people know your actual identity? Seems like the kind of thing to keep to the dinner table.

I think you mean anecdote.

So are we seeing a gradual swing back to remain, judging by the poll tracker over the last week?
