Such is their desperation to keep us in the club paying the bills.

Polls starting to swing back to remain, the 'undecideds' are behaving as predicted. I really don't think this will as close as the polls are saying.
Blessed relief when this is all over, whatever the result.

Interesting the way certain newspapers/proprietors are hedging their bets, not wanting to be on the losing side !
Sun(Brexit), Times (Remain) - both Murdoch owned
Mail(Brexit), Mail on Sunday (Remain!)

I think the Leave campaign may regret having Farage on board in light of recent events and the type of messages he is pushing:

'Vile': How husband scorned Nigel Farage's anti-immigration poster just 90 minutes before his wife's death

Well l certainly don't trust our perfidious politicians and l certainly don't trust our perfidious media so my advice is for people to make their own mind up whatever way that is based on true facts and not the constant disinformation that politicians and the media try to tell to feed to us all.

Really why is that then? I don't see the relevance to her death?

I don't support immigrants coming into this country in large numbers but I wouldn't have wished anyone dead.

Just because she supported one thing doesn't mean others have to suddenly change their views.

The worry now is they will in support of her.

Not surprised. Not the kind of word you find in the Express. Isn't readily relatable to Lady Diana, cures for various ailments afflicting those of middle age and up, or migrants.

We'll see. I am disgusted by the reaction from many politicians to this. I can't say I'm enamoured by those playing holier than thou over it either. Cameron's writing in the Telegraph displeased, as did Yvette Cooper wanting Nigel Farage to be banned from campaigning.

Farage's ongoing appeals to the lowest common denominator don't enthrall either. Many in the leave campaign I suspect consider his tactics beneath them.

I did note in the press the lack of coverage for Farage leaving a tribute to Jo Cox in Parliament Square though. I thought it merited coverage given he is the leader of our 3rd political party by percentage of the vote.
