A game of musical chairs being played now with one Labour MP moving from leave to remain and another going in the opposite direction.

Howard, who are the Labour MPs? I thought the latest news was John Mann MP of Labour told the Labour supporting Sun,that he intends to vote out and of course,good old Dennis Skinner told the Morning Star that he intends to vote out. I am waiting for the Latte Socialists/Corbynistas Shouting 'Racists' at Dennis and John,for daring to stand up for their principals

Khalid Mahmood is leaving the out campaign Peter as he believes suddenly we are being racist towards Turks.

Of course Germany is now getting worried.
The whole thing is paid for by us, them, France and a couple of BeNeLux countries.
Without our largesse they will have to pay even more!

Just 12 days to go panic is beginning to set in with the "Remain" contingent, about half of Labour voters do not know where their party stands on the issue and in vast swathes of their heartlands party activists are reporting that people want out of the EU. Dave commissioned some private polls that did not make good reading to him but the bookies are unmoved.

Apparently Dave has been told to take a back seat and let Labour take over concentrating on getting their traditional voters to change their minds. Brexit will be hoping that Blair is at the forefront.

For anyone still sitting on the fence as to whether a vote to leave or remain is a difficult decision, have a look at " Brexit " the movie, which although admittedly only gives one side of the argument, it is nevertheless powerful stuff! You won't see this on tv of course!

Dave was trying to frighten people earlier by saying that leaving the EU could have a negative effect on state pensions. How come our one is so much lower than Germany in particular whilst we are in the EU>

Have to disagree with your brother Brian we are Germany's biggest export market in the EU then he goes on to say that we receive back more than we put in!! On that basis it must mean we are being subsidised by Romania, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Hungary etc.

Creative accounting involving percentages is the oldest trick in the book.

Interesting article here by South East MEP Daniel Hannan setting out ten developments that aren't being discussed until after the referendum.
Number 8 - "The EU wants to oblige every port to have more than one provider for its internal services, such as mooring, dredging and unloading. " could be a cost disadvantage for Dover.
Number 9 - at least we're get an edition of much missed Eurotrash this week!
