Polls like the one above are deeply flawed since they are polling only people who are interested enough to go out to a debate. This makes the sample grossly unrepresentative of most voters, some of whom wouldn't know who the current prime minister is and can only just manage to put an X in a box.
That's an interesting interpretation. So what you are saying is that the remain camp are not really that bothered and can't be arsed to go out and listen to their speakers? But yes I'm in general agreement with you that a lot of voters don't have the wherewithal to deal with all the information. I'm struggling myself but I'm hanging my hat on less than half a dozen issues.
Somebody said to me recently that you can make your decision on whether you see yourself as an employee and like to be ordered around and told what you have to do i.e. be nannied. Or see yourself as an employer and want the freedom to make your own decisions or to apply a bit of initiative and plough your own furrow.
It's a simplification I know but it boils down to whether you are a risk taker or like to be molly coddled and feel secure in your subservience. Oddly enough the farmers have surprised me by going against the recommendation of their union and are reported to support Brexit by about 58%. Now there is a group that have had the molly coddling for 47 years and are fed up with it. They want to take risks and use their initiative which they cannot do under the EU yoke. That has surprised me more than anything else.

Daniel Hannan's speech is absolutely bang on the money.
If Brexit win he would make an excellent replacement for Cameron.
Is that the 'bbc propaganda machine' you mentioned 3 posts ago?
Have you not been watching Evan Davis and the Newsnight presentation of the issues?
Disgraceful one sided view being pushed far too regularly. Hardly any criticism of Obama allowed either.

Think you may be getting balanced coverage confused with Rupert coverage

But yet, but he is trying to, a vote to leave would probably help him a little more in his aims

Murdock will get nowhere near the BBC, in or out.

Or get paid for 'set aside' land.I'm guessing there are about 42% of farms that need an EU handout to survive?
