    So it thinks 85% of voters will vote for Brexit - thats clearly ****** so I think we can treat the rest as at best unreliable

    I couldnt be bothered to read the article but of course Britain has lost some sovereignty - but that would happen anyway the global markets these days mean unless you follow the North Korean model you have to compromise on sovereignty in many areas

    I find this point of sovereignty hilarious.

    So "unelected" people propose and create laws that 28 member states all vote on, although these unelected people are all picked by our own elected government. In the UK... we elect a government (thats a whole debate in itself) which is heavily biased by a media owned by the super rich, none UK born and none UK resident including one media mogul who openly donates to ukip.

    We also have an undemocratic unelected chamber that is the house of lords.

    The only people in the UK who have sovereignty are the wealthy. And thats why they want us out, so they can make up laws and rules to suit themselves.

    The out-ers have played this sovereignty thing like there'll be a return to the days of the Raj and a 'British Empire' if we vote to leave the EU; a rhetoric that readers of the shitrags have swallowed in their thousands. Someone should break the news to them that the world has kind of moved on from that nonsense, and simply wouldn't tolerate it ever happening again.
