    The most compelling Remain video.... IN THE WORLD.



    So far the Remain campaign has been frankly D- must try harder. I'm a remainer, but I think the campaign is run by muppets, the leave meanwhile are doing an excellent job, lie about something, say it's 350m a week, the remain come back and say no it's only 180m scoring the goal for you.

    But this... This is better than the new top gear.

    I'm not sure what you are trying to suggest there, but if you look at some poll of polls over time:
    https://ig.ft.com/sites/brexit-polling/

    You can see that at the start, 6 months ago, remain was polling far higher, and leave lower. The undecided didn't change that much, but leave have clearly won people over whilst remain have lost people.

    The problem with Cameron is he is so limp wristed he can't even rig a poll. I still can't fathom how he allowed Scotland to have a 'yes' for being independence....

    If you read on here: https://next.ft.com/content/6a63c2ca...d-26294ad519fc

    The telephone polls have remained fairly consistent, the online polls are consistent, but the two give different results due to the way it is easier to say "unsure" in an online poll. The ratio of telephone to online polls has changed, skewing the average generated between the two, not the attitude of the voting public.

    Edit to add: I suppose that means so far all the debate has been pointless!

    Well studies show...
    One reason is our inbuilt cognitive biases. We often make quick decisions about complex issues on the basis of our past beliefs or even chance associations. After we have made these decisions – which often happen in a matter of milliseconds – we start the laborious process of proving ourselves right. We seek information which justifies decisions already made.
    When the facts don’t fit our beliefs we tend to prefer to change the facts, not our beliefs.
