Ya if you stay clear of the big cities you will be good to go.

Just dont get into a political discussion with them thats all. Some might be a bit sore over it yet. If they ask you what you think tell them its thier business.

If the vote is out, Brussels will figure out how they will have to vote again. ( Think Ireland and the Treaty of Lisbon )

Farage welcomes ‘victory for decent people’

This is what Nigel Farage said to his supporters. Just as he appeared to concede defeat prematurely at the start of the evening, he is now effectively declaring victory.

If the predications now are right this will be a victory for real people, a victory for ordinary people, a victory for decent people. We have fought against the multinationals, against the big merchant banks, against big politics, against lies against lies, corruption and deceit and today honesty and decency and belief in nation I think now is going to win.

We will have done it without having to fight, without a single bullet having been fired.

I hope this victory brings down this failed projects and brings us to a Europe of sovereign nation states trading together.

Let’s June the 23rd go down in our history as our independence day.

And Trump will be in Scotland the day after the referendum. This man has got so much luck on his side.

I’ve heard that if the referendum to LEAVE would be positive this means he wins the presidency.
