I would feel I need to find my CV and make sure it's up to date
Ugandan affairs is my favourite
Hopefully we will get to see who made the more realistic, accurate prediction after Thursday's vote.

Look, I haven't said much up to now, but I believe in the European "plan" on a philosophical level. I believe that Europe is an entity in the way the US is an entity, and that, for example, Utah would have felt a bit daft now if it had ( if it could have) opted out of the US experience.
I believe that the French minister who said we would be no better than Guernsey is correct - though of corse Guernsey is a lovely little backwater if you've ever been there.
I think little englanders should reflect on what we could be, rather than what we once were, and we COULD be a leader in Europe,once the initial hiccups of Union are overcome. The California of a strong Europe rather than a small and insignificant pip off the coast of the European mainland, waiting for scraps from the Eurotable. The EU is very young in political terms, and it would be fools who wish to give it up now.
I expect to lose. Like supporting England
I must have been very mistaken then... I sure Mr Murdoch has only the highest altruistic values at heart when he uses his media company to politely encourage the free people of the UK to throw off the oppressive shackles of EU domination, it's obviously quite absurd to suggest that Brexit will be in his interests personally or professionally in any way.
I feel deeply ashamed that I might even think for a split second that directing his editorial staff to construct and publish arguments for Brexit in editorials while trying to report even-handedly on the forthcoming vote could constitute an attempt to skew the vote for his own advantage. It seems obvious now that this is just the work of a benevolent father figure merely guiding the hot headed youth of today in the direction that is needed for the good of the country.
I know respect is at an all time low in modern society but he holds a pivital position in the french government. He isnt a clown. He is making a perfectly plausible statement. If we want to trade then we will contribute to the eu budget (and will also have to have freedom of movement for labour). Best close your eyes and ears though
What,that Britain will be like Guernsey if we leave?The bloke is not just a clown,he's an incompetent clown,totally incapable of proposing a realistic plan to rescue the French economy from its downward spiral.I have no idea what a pivit is-a french vegetable?
If the vote is to Leave, then I will seriously consider moving to another country.
He publishes his newspaper day,day out and has done come fire,famine,referenda,etc.How is backing Brexit with one of his titles making him any more money than usual.Do try to answer the question when you've got up.You Remainers follow the party line,and never answer a question.Now if you bother answering,you will ask a question about experts,or say Brexit haven't got a plan,or you're all little englanders.
I suspect the Brexit voters will take it a lot worse than the remains if they lose....
I would be very disappointed in the outcome, disappointed in the British electorate, angry at our media, angry at the woeful efforts of those at the head of the Remain campaign, and mostly fearful for the future.
