The polls show things are still very close between the In & Out camps: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36271589

Interesting article you raise there Lex.
Many EU citizens that are not eligible to vote have already received polling cards (and postal votes). Obviously they will want to vote IN. - Now, we are 'assured' that the mistake has been identified and these people will not be allowed to vote. Do you believe this: I know I don't, especially with the vote looking to swing to OUT.
Every 'mistake' made so far has erred on the side of the IN campaign. This never was going to be an open and fair vote. Even if we do vote OUT I expect the terms that we 'leave' on will not be particularly good ones. Various MPs have already hinted that they will do their very best to destroy any victory that the OUT camp may make. Maybe we ought bring back capital punishment for MPs that commit 'treason'? - Silk rope obviously.

I must admit, a few bells started ringing when the articles reminding people to register to vote a mere day before registration closed, but I just put it down to incompetence. But with what you say Rebbonk, I'm not so sure now.

Whichever way we vote we're stuffed. But I'm voting OUT.

Roll on the autumn, and lets start things rolling properly for this great country of ours

Yes, it'll be interesting to see how this develops. As far as I can tell, no-one's actually planned for the eventuality of the 'Out' vote. This could explain why the government doesn't want to start exit negotiations until October - nobody's thought about what kind of deal the UK should have  The big downside of 'Call Me Dave' going, is that we could well get Boris instead.

We've discussed this on another thread somewhere; this is another reason why people got fed up with the EU. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-36640963

Hell, just realised that I'm already talking about the EU in the past tense.

The EU is history. I predict that the whole shebang will come tumbling down within the next 5 years as more countries elect to leave.
Sadly, the Eurocrats haven't yet worked out that it is their telling everyone what's good for them has caused the issue.
I also (sadly) predict another European war within the next 10-15 years. - And I put the blame for that squarely on Merkel's shoulders.

Until the dust settles and we see exactly what terms we will leave under the argument is farcical. BUT, I can't see Theresa May supporting the NHS any more than is absolutely necessary.
