Duck,..... ? Election results are not known before the election. What happens is; that people similar to 'market researchers' stand outside the polling stations all day (on the day of the election) and as voters exit the polling stations, they are asked who they have voted for.

All the figures are scrambled into a computer and an overall pre-result is spat out from another computer.
That's how they get a pretty good idea of who wins. Elections are not fixed, in this country !

People from other EU countries living here will not be allowed to vote. It's British only votes.

Now do yourself a favour, Duck, and vote when the time comes. smile

I don't even discuss politics with family if they don't vote. If they don't feel it's important then in my opinion the points on any issue are useless.

I understand if people go and spoil if they can't decide as that shows no faith but to point blank refuse in my opinion is wrong, I would make it compulsory with a vote for no party added.

Cameron the actor ,as pete hitchens says, is 100% pro europe but panders to having to look like he isnt ,like hes doing us a favour....if ukip wasnt around would he even bother!?

im out, what did we do without all the "EU" workers 10 years ago, we all done okay, get shut of them, no more claiming benefits for housing or working tax credits, more room for OUR children in school and hospitals, and more jobs for our children in future, these people have 2 options, stay here or go back home, us English people have to stay here, once they have bled the county dry off they go to their new life back home with OUR money that we have paid in taxes, i work 7 days a week, over 70 hours a week to get a holiday and a deposit for a mortgage, and dont claim a penny, we are an island and ill sink if we carry on the way we are

Mr Farage....we may not like all of him, but he certainly puts the case forward here for a Brexit.
Frau Merkel and Monsieur Hollande look quite uncomfortable.

I've always liked Farage. I would never vote UKIP but there's no denying he's like a breath of fresh air to politics.

Yeah! look at the gobs on Merkel and Hollande. grin

Its easy to be liked and popular, you just tell people what they want to hear, hail fellow well met,likes a beer, thoroughly nice chap, he reminds me to much of a car salesman, the same ilk as Cameron and co, I mean look at IDS, what a genuine thoroughly nice bloke he turned out to be who would have believed it? worrying about the disabled and the non Tory voters, the salt of the earth.

UKIP was the only party with a fully costed budget at the last national elections - you can't do that by just saying what everyone wants to hear.

Farage's attitude completely changed when he realised he was actually in with a chance of getting a decent number of votes and he stepped up to the mark.

I'll vote UKIP at every European Elections, we can't allow the United States of Germany to develop any further. They run the European Bank and now they are building up their population yet again - we never learn, these things need to be nipped in the bud early, not late.

Has anyone seen the report on tv about the trading posts in the Sahara, Niger ? Blimey, they're coming to Europe from everywhere. Cameroon, Liberia, the money changing hands and hundreds being driven off into the night to their destination. I assume that will be Libya, Morocco or Algeria . The African migrants are destroying Italy, and the Syrians are now going via Libya to Italy again.. There's no stopping them.

Shut that blasted tunnel.

Will we be in a different position altogether in the future, if we stay in Europe ?

One thing that I do like about the In/ Out debate is that Tory voters are going against 'Call Me Dave'.
