I shall certainly be voting to leave the EU, but have always thought that the numbers voting to stay in will be greater.Hey-ho, that's democracy, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Comparing the vote with the millennium software update seems a tad spurious to me!

Remember the millennium bug.

Such scaremongering to get us the spend on software updates for the confuser. Nothing happened.

The EU has proved itself to be nothing but a motley crew of self-seeking politicians aided by their overpaid beurocrats with their freebie perks..

Not having the euro as well as the Schengen restrictions has given us a degree of independence but our laws are permeated by those of Brussels.

My sympathy goes to all killed/ maimed in the carnage of Brussels. A city of about 1 million with 19 mayors, as many separate police forces,

Please vote against our continued involvement in this farcical 'community' on 23 June.

When we joined the common market, a simple union we had to leave our colonies out in the wilderness, but NZ and AUS got on and restructured their economies and are now very successful.

Britain can do the same .
