    Out - Dave and Osborne and liars, looking after purely their own interests.

    You could substitute any of the main player's names in there and it would still be true...

    I will personally be voting to leave the European Union. I think that we will end up staying though unfortunately. The EU and the current party would probably actually go as far as to rig the election to ensure we stay - in my opinion.

    We'll see though, less than a month to go. :)

    One option fails to make any reasonable and logical argument. The more you identify this to the proponents, the more they fail to address the points. Frankly this identifies whether a person is capable of logic and viewing the big picture.
    Always overestimating...

    Ah logic....
    Okay,
    Dilemma 1:
    If you think Cameron et al are untrustworthy and lying, then you should vote to stay in, to have a supra-national organisation capable of keeping them in check.
    If you think Cameron et al are telling the truth, then you should vote to stay in, because they've said that's the best thing.

    Dilemma 2:
    If you think Cameron et al are untrustworthy and lying, then you should vote to get out, as they are telling you to stay in.
    If you think Cameron et al are trustworthy, then you should vote to get out, to give them full control over the country.

    There you go, sorted. Pick your prejudice... There's precious little real information to go by.

    Which of course only means most of the money has been gambled on "stay". Could this be our chance to win big? Probably not.

    This thread is a little different as it is interesting to find out what people in Northern Ireland think as we are the only part of the U.K. with a land border with the rest of the EU. Also, as people living here can legally hold an Irish passport it could be relevant in a more everyday way!;)
