That they are. However, some will cast their vote on that issue. Some will believe the doom and gloom and some will believe this mornings one - another 2 years of austerity.

I wasn't too worried about the vote until now and was quietly confident of a Leave vote but with all this coming out now, I'm not so confident. The good thing is that after Friday the Government can't do any more to influence the vote.
