Donald Trump has brought his plans to visit the UK forward to the day before the EU referendum. The man certainly has a knack for self publicity.
Should be fun! I believe he supports Brexit.
As silly as it sounds, it genuinely could have an impact on the result. Remember how annoyed people got about Obama sticking his oar in?
What did people make a Gove no hard facts again. Any truth in what he was saying about the EU sheltering big business from tax. to honest I thought that was more of a tory practice they certainly give google a sweet deal
I suspect he calculated that immigration was driving the out vote and didn't want to get into naming names, anyone who could be asked a leading question tomorrow and deny it and it would then dent the leave argument. It's strange how the EU is so brilliant we have had a bedroom tax, reductions in working credits, cutbacks on disability benefits and yet the rich just seem to get obscenely richer.Gove came across better than Cameron presentationally, but he offered absolutely no firm answers to anything at all.
The intro, where he couldn't name any economic bodies, economists, international bodies or allied leaders who shared his view set the tone for what followed.
It's a toss-up whether the positive tone won over the home audience more than the lack of facts sabotaged him.
A question for anyone in the "Leave" camp who voted in the last election for any party other than UKIP...
Even if you don't trust Cameron and the Conservatives, why do you no longer trust the party you gave your vote to just over a year ago? (After all, every party except UKIP is advocating "Remain")
Do you honestly think the situation would be any better if the torries were given free reign. I have grave concerns about loss of democracy at the very top of the EU its the main thing that could sway me over to the leave side. I'd argue they have done a lot more for your average working guy than torries ever did.It's strange how the EU is so brilliant we have had a bedroom tax, reductions in working credits, cutbacks on disability benefits and yet the rich just seem to get obscenely richer.

I worry what rights upper class tax dodging torries would erode away if it weren't for the European courts
I wonder what would happen to UKIP if "Leave" win? After all, it's close to being a single-purpose party, so its utility will have run its course, albeit with a huge "win" that will go down in the history books as a resounding success, if the UK's no longer in the EU.
With UKIP marginalised (or gone) what would that mean for the vote share of the other parties? Would the UK be facing Conservative majorities for decades? Many commentators already suggest that Labour's pretty much unelectable given the demographic and boundary hurdles they have to face, even before taking a dwindled UKIP into consideration.
And what would that mean for the country if it were governed by Johnson, Gove, Duncan-Smith etc. with an increased majority and pretty much free rein to do anything they liked?
