First off, dont wont to turn this into a 'should we, shouldn't we' or another Political Thread, but here on some on the reasons I heard or over heard from other people discussing the EU Vote, God help us. 

If we Vote Out then we wont have to pay VAT anymore so everything will be cheaper.
If were out then I wont be able to Play Euro Millions.
If we win Out then the Prime Minister will be forced to resign and Boris will be the new PM.
Most Pubs will have to close down because most of our Beer is made in the EU.
If we come out, Holidays will be cheaper because they will bring back Duty Free Shops.
We should stay in because were protected by Nato.
They will have to close the Channel Tunnel if we come out.
We should stay in because I dont have a Passport and dont wont one.
Im in because I work for Ikea and dont wont to lose my Job.

What have you heard, over heard from other people?

Please tell me that you have not really heard these. You made them up right ? 

Mind you, No 3 ?

Nope, seriously heard them, seems to be hot topic at the moment and for good reasons too, and makes a change from  talking about the weather, mainly young folk, and a few olders, love to know where they get there information from 

[Sir Tigger KC]

Someone said to me the other day that we should stay in the EU because if the Russians invade the Europeans won't help us and Donald Trump won't either! 

And digressing slightly, when the Scottish referendum was on a couple of years ago, we were discussing it at work during lunch and one of the girls looked up from her iphone and said "What's it all about anyway?  Don't we own Scotland or somefing?"

This is why I believe that anyone who wishes to vote on this or any other political vote, should be made to take a political awareness exam. It would also stop politicians consistently appealing to the lowest common denominator.

Hmm, seems your lot seem to know more about Political Awareness than my lot,

Good idea that, problem is, it will rule out about 85% of the UK population. 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

I was hoping it would rule out everyone but me and thee, and Im not too sure about thee.

Cheeky Baswhat, your be fine on your own, Me, Im off to Euroland.

Number three is a dead cert.

[STEMO]

Oh....and if the Russians invade, they'll have to flatten the rest of Europe to get to us.

O krist don't start talking like that, Rods2 will start spouting, and loads of clinky's to anti Russian propaganda 

[BazaJT]

Some very good examples there of why some people simply should not be allowed to breed

Good idea. A couple of cryptic clues on the polling card as to where the polling centre is would weed out most of the dipshits.

Trouble is Kevin, that idea relies on the postman actually delivering the bloody thing...
