Good call.

Cameron is going to come back with nothing. Neither the Tories nor the Labour Party will support it wholeheartedly, canny Scots Nats will vote out and the public like sticking two fingers up to the politicians.

I'm going large on an out vote.

 

[Westdene Seagull]

Even as an outer I see that as a good appointment. It's going to be one hell of a fight !

Oh well, that should raise Mr Rose's profile, i don't suppose he was the boss of M&S until their profits took a tumble.

It seems, and I hope, that there will some effort from both sides to articulate the pros and cons. The Scottish referendum was half-arsed with no one really explaining anything. And when it did get going in last weeks it was nothing but a slew of negativity about what might happen if the Scots left. Quite worrying for something so profound.

Agreed

I'm an Out voter after being an 'In' until the way the elite EU bankers and EU institutions treated Greece. The politicians are not in control of the EU institutions. They are being bribed and controlled by multi-national corporate interests not for the security of the people.

An "Out" vote would be a massive mistake and we'd be back in before too much longer anyway.

Team IN.

We could continue trading with Europe, as the USA, Canada and Australia do, control our borders and have the final say on who we can deport (thinking of a few high profile cases of convicted criminals who have been allowed to stay here due to their 'right' to a family life). So it's 'IN' from me.

Boss of M&S where probably a large percentage of the goods where imported from outside the EU, so cheap goods there.

Hope he brings some of that 'not just any old campaign but an M&S campaign' flair with him ....
