re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU

Nissan are suing Vote Leave for incorrectly quoting them and using their logo: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...-a7091556.html

Kinda pointless. The campaign will be wound-up by the time it sees the inside of a court room.

Also, as Gove will no doubt agree, many of the executives at Nissan are experts on their company and thus rather ignorant of it.

I am not convinced. I still think the demographics favour Leave. The polls might be finding it hard reaching working class people in areas that have struggled for years and who don't usually vote in General Elections.

The last week has seen fewer reports of Labour campaigners being alarmed. I suspect the amount of people who don't know Labour support Remain has dropped considerably.

The amount of people who felt Brexit would 'cost them personally' jumped up as well. I think Leave are struggling to keep coming up with rebuttals to the economic arguments now that they've taken centre-stage what with Leave being ahead. Osborne's Budget threat has probably worked too, when Leave said it was outrageous it still highlighted the idea of economic harm and moved immigration off the headlines which was hurting Remain badly. As you said before for Project Fear to work it has to seem possible, and the polls putting Leave ahead have definitely made it seem possible.

Still I think it's very close and Leave might edge past due to a more motivated electorate.
