Serious about that?

Hope not, since that would be abyssmally stupid.

As for me, I only answer in case this would come up in my own country. I'm not a fan of the EU in it's current state and never would have voted to join an EU as it turned out to be. But I'm not totally blind when it comes to international politics and economics either and don't take tabloids or right wingers to be serious sources. So, if the question came up, I would pinch my nose and vote no. Any country on it's own is more vulnerable, has less political influence and would be fucked over royally by the global financial market.

But apparently that was expected. I have a bad feeling about this... I think leave's gonna win. I wish I'd put a bet on them winning... then at least something good would come out of it (for me) if they won Wink

Edit: this was in reply to Bella saying that it was a majority for remain in Gibraltar.

Two local authorities have voted remain so far.

I have a feeling Leave will lose to be honest. Brits tend to say they will take radical action on things and pussy out at the last minute.

I'm not sure about the outcome. But some may say, the majority actually employs their brains instead of taking radical action for radical action's sake.

With all the consequences involved, this is a brainy matter rather than an emotional one.

Orkney Islands voted remain.

It's early to say, but even Farage thinks remain will win.

Then it is dangerous to leave that to voters.
