thorbotnic Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Why was the only option in this poll to supportthe UK sstaying in or leaving? A lot might hope England vote to leave whilst Scotland votes to stay. Which is a more than possible outcome of Cameron's referendum. Or judging by the opinions if this thread, Scotland might vote to leave and England to stay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deecie Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Ditto Add recent events in Portugal to that Cant get my head around it unless they dont watch the news Aren't these issues more related to the eurozone rather than the EU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Bongo Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Aren't these issues more related to the eurozone rather than the EU? In the cases of Greece and Portugal it's both The differences between the EU and the Eurozone are getting less as time passes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde1998 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 Why was the only option in this poll to supportthe UK sstaying in or leaving? A lot might hope England vote to leave whilst Scotland votes to stay. Which is a more than possible outcome of Cameron's referendum. I asked the referendum question, although it's a snap shot of what would happen if the vote was tomorrow. There could be a situation where Scotland votes to leave, while the rUK votes to stay - as well - which could trigger another referendum... I might do monthly (or so) polling on this site to enable me to ask different questions on a regular basis - people could PM me with questions to ask... I might ask a question based on tactical voting in the EU referendum in the future. I put Scotland as the team as I support. I have more clubs than Tiger Woods so opted for that. Was I the N/A? You said you supported Scotland - the N/A came from someone else. 1% LibDem? Didn't know Willie Rennie was a TAMBer? It may have been someone who lives in England - thus wouldn't have been able to vote SNP (they said they support independence). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoonTheSlope Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 To be honest I don't really know why they'd need to know what team a person supports to take part in the pole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde1998 Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 To be honest I don't really know why they'd need to know what team a person supports to take part in the pole It's too see if there are any differences between different teams - I'm not really finding any trends with it, so it probably won't be included next time.

Huddersfield Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 It's too see if there are any differences between different teams - I'm not really finding any trends with it, so it probably won't be included next time. I think you'll find so far 100% of Huddersfield Town fans have voted out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giblet Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Simple for me. I want Ruk to vote leave and us remain. Triggers indyref2 and we retain the membership of EU in place. Big argument against indyref 1 dead and buried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewelk Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Are the rangers fans pro or anti eu? They're always against foreigner type stuff so probably anti eu. But at the same time quite unionistic and prefer not breaking stuff up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big argument against indyref 1 dead and buried. I think that's unlikely, the closer we get the more the media will ramp up the pro eu position.

Since we've discussed this 'xenophobia' jibe of yours before, You lost. I won't waste time going through the argument again - just read the final few pages of the linked thread.

Maybe but the EU is different to the union, especially as there's not the same emotional attachment to the EU like there is within Britain. Although they have the fact that both should be a good thing but aren't because of politicians and big business in common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoonTheSlope Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I'd say leave because I've got too many blank pages in passport. Just think how many people are similar and how many trees got chopped down to accommodate these passports. It's a sin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
