Yeah, seems to me that foreign intervention to try to sway voters is pretty much always counter-productive to the desired outcome of the foreign intervener's preference. But it seems foreign leaders just can't help themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Anti-Targ Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Just now, Chaircat Meow said: 67.2% Seems a little on the low side to get hopeful for the remain camp, if the common wisdom that Leave voters are generally more motivated to vote is correct. What's the typical turn out for a general election? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northernmonkey Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Well this is a bit worrying. Could easily be counteracted though by a few bigger than expected Remain votes down South. There's something depressing about the North East (one of the areas with the lowest levels of immigration) being so Eurosceptic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The BlackBear Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 The Scotland vote is seemingly very small. I get this horrible feeling some folk think that Leave vote will get them the IndyRef2, (although in completely unfavourable position joining the EU.)

Its bizarre hearing the 'immigrants are taking over' when I come home, look around and see a sea of White British nationals. Especially when I compare that with London.

Pebble thats Stubby Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Its so annoying that the BBC thinks I work in Germany. Whats the point of being made to work on election night If I can't watch the results in the background. Not too worried about the £ falling right now, If we do remain it will pick back up again. althugh I'm rather worried we will leave. Maybe I should have bought a load of $$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something depressing about the North East (one of the areas with the lowest levels of immigration) being so Eurosceptic. IMO that sort of thing is entirely expected. There's nothing more xenophobic and anti-immigration than a monocultural society / community. If the leave campaigners can convince such a community that overwhelming immigration can only be stopped by leaving the EU then that community will vote for leaving by a large margin. "Where all white now, but will we be all white a few years from now if this immigration wave isn't stopped in its tracks?" Nothing motivates like fear.
