EU Referendum

[Hacker Khan]

A demographic split on how people are likely to vote. Chose your friends wisely.

In conclusion, thick old Daily Mail reading right wingers will vote out, young educated Guardian reading left wingers and liberals will vote stay. No %$£% Sherlock

 

[Hobbit]

Have to have a little smile though, when it is said we stand more of a chance making changes whilst still in and at the bargaining table... Knowing absolutely full well bugger all, of any significance, has ever changed in this manner...

Exactly!

Cameron achieved virtually nothing in his negotiations a few months ago. Sitting at the table achieved what? And that was when it was in the EU's best interests to engage with the U.K.

Thanks Hacker, confirms all my thoughts.
Unless of course it is a spoof

It doesn't mention the Gay Vegitarian Bikers against Fracking who might just swing it for 'Remain'

[Old Skier]

So only around 50% of SNP voters want to stay then.

 

[Hobbit]

nope, its genuine.

I'm confused. I read the Guardian and the Times, and I voted LibDem until they sold out to the Tories.

I really must swap my subscription to the Sun, and take a CSE in art and flower arranging.

No, what it is saying is that for example 93% of UKIP supporters have made their minds up about definitely voting leave, Or 82% of Guardian readers will definitely vote stay. Or in your example 50% of SNP supporters have definitely made their mind up about voting stay. It does not mean the remaining 50% will vote leave, just that they have not made their minds up yet.

Both of you are wrong!

The Title is 'By Remain LEAD'!

So something around 75! SNP want to Remain as opposed to 25 want to leave (assuming no 'undecideds')! Likewise 93% MORE of UKIP supporters want to leave than Remain!

 

[Old Skier]

Just an out of date poll that gives no real information then. A bit like all the other political polls that have been wrong over the last 5 years.

I get the feeling that the public like to play the pollsters these days.

 

[Hacker Khan]

Neither of you are right!

I took my explanation from the whole article, which is now frustratingly unavailable behind a paywall. The whole article was talking about the undecidedes and how that probably will influence the outcome. The gist was that the stay campaigners need to mobilise their supporters in those groups listed more, as the leave campaigners in their groups are more likely to turn up and vote leave. So UKIP voters will vote and will more than likely vote leave. Youngsters are less likely to bother turning up but if they did they would more than likely vote stay.

On a basic level it was also saying the further left or right the bar was means the more likely it is that if you are for example a SNP, Guardian reader, Mail reader etc etc to vote that way. So UKIP members are much more likely to vote leave, Guardian readers much more likely to vote stay etc etc.

50% wins most elections.:lol:

Anyone remember what the Tories got?

I still don't think you get what the stats are about! It's the difference between the %age one way or the other that is shown (Blue being Remain and Magenta being Leave)! Here's an article showing similar charts, but on Index basis (where 100 is 'even split'). http://www.populus.co.uk/2016/05/brexit-index-whos-remain-leave-supporters/

Yes it does... But, this is not an election...

Anyone remember what the Tories got?

Enough to screw us over ...

 

[Old Skier]

Enough to win

 

[Doon frae Troon]

Enough to win

Yes, believe it or not we all know that.

I was talking percentage of votes following your 50% comment.
I take it that you do not know so I shall inform you that the Tory vote at the last election was 36%.

 

[Hobbit]

But still more than anyone else

 

[MarkE]

I think he may have lost a few % after his performance on Sky news tonight. Faisal Islam did a bit of a job on him and it was great to see the PM squirm.

 

[FairwayDodger]

Do brexit just need 51% or is there a muirfieldesque 2/3s clause....?
