To be honest, sad as it is, I had never heard of Jo Cox before, and her unfortunate death will have absolutely no bearing on my decision come Thursday. 

So basically, even though they knew all this from the very beginning, they have now decided the EU isn't the place to be, and have leaped the fence, based, it seems, purely on the way the latest polls seem to be pointing. Well, after a Brexit, they'll still need readers, won't they?

Friend? What, you have friends CL? I must have misread all your posts!

(Only joking!)

Interesting vote so far - where are all the Remain supporters?

They Remain to be seen!

Whats the feeling lads in or out ?

Definitely 'OUT!' for me. I wouldn't be surprised either if other countries followed suit and the whole 'superstate' collapsed around them.

Well, from that video, you can see what's going to happen when we've left the EU. The vindictive 'Remainers' will be out for revenge ...

Fear not, HPW. Although it's been very quiet in here over the weekend, the rest of Bedlington have been showing their grief, judging by the sheer number of flowers outside Ian's shop.

Ian may be gone now, but he'll never be forgotten.

R.I.P. Ian.

I knew Ian for many years, not as a personal friend, but as an acquaintance I am proud to have known. 

Sad indeed, but  truly glad his son survived. My thoughts go out to his family. 

Haha! Just took your idea and jazzed it up a bit.

I was disgusted by the way Boris was attacked by  Nicola Sturgeon, Angela Eagle and Amber Rudd on what was supposed to be a debate last night on TV. the coven wasted the whole so called debate  by making personal attacks on Boris.

Later on the Bias Broadcasting Corporations question time  luvvie Eddie Izzard  was attacking  Nigel Farage. its the first time I have ever heard a question time audience   shouting shut up to the panel.

The behaviour of these folk are doing more for the leave campaign  than for dodgy Daves quest that they claim to back .   

Democracy does not exist in the eyes of the stay campaign, all who wish to vote leave are treated as morons . or attacked for daring to have a different choice.

If Boris had behaved and spoken to the three women the way they spoke to him they would be screaming he was sexist and all the papers would have it on the front page calling for his resignation,   

 

The choice boxes on the ballot papers should be a choice between: Dictatorship / Democracy.

Isn't Photoshop wonderful!

Well, I think Boris summed up the whole debate tonight when he said the referendum was fundamentally about democracy. That's what we're really voting for. 

I see a lot of airtime is being given to those two non-entitie's Major and Bliar. Who the hell is interested in their opinions?

I don't even understand why all the media hype before the referendum.

If you're clued up, then you know which way you are going to vote.

If you're not clued up, then you either need to find out all the facts for yourself, or carry on as you were, completely oblivious to the whole process.

There's absolutely no need for all this drivel spouted by people 'in the know.' No one cares.

This latest farce, where Woollaston has suddenly changed sides, is simply another desperate attempt to sway opinion.

Dead right Malcolm. If my dog was drowning along with a known paedophile, I know who I'd save. Shame on the vet too that made the decision to destroy this dog. Or was it another case of, 'They told me to do it?'

I realise feelings are running high concerning the dog 'attacks' in the Blyth park, but I cannot, in all honesty, condone the killing of this dog by the police. An offer was made to home the 14 month old dog by a sanctuary, but sadly Marley was never granted this opportunity. Take a look at the poor dog on page 4 of the News Post Leader. Tragic.

As I get older I find all life is precious, from misunderstood animals, down to the bottom of the pond, yes, even politicians.

My thoughts go out to the poor kids who suffered nasty bites, but I don't think killing the dog was the solution. Kill the owner, by all means. 

Also, Ms Morgan? Hmm... that reminds me of a little ditty we used to sing in the schoolyard many, many years ago, to the tune of 'Oh My Darling, Clementine' -

'Fanny Morgan, plays the organ,

And she plays it very canny.

She's got a sister, with a blister,

In the middle of her ...'

(Repeat: ad infinitum!).

I liked the point one bloke made about knowing your local MP but not knowing your local MEP.

So, without Googling (as I had to do!), who is your local MEP? Be honest now!

We may as well have Pinnochio for PM.

With regard to this whole referendum lark though, and I'm not the greatest at English grammar, is it an oxymoron to say 'We'd like you to vote for an un-elected parliament?'

I bought my sunburst Strat at Kitchen's. Paid £240 and walked away with it wrapped in brown paper! 

Later, I swapped it for an Atari 2600 games box. I then bought a Westone Thunder III,  which I still play after more than 30 years. 

I don't use an amp now. I play everything through my pc with Guiar Rig 5 or Amplitube 3.

I too spent many a happy hour drooling down Mackay's window over a Dan Armstrong perspex guitar and an Arp Odyssey synth. I know they used to sell Burmah amps and cabinets. My mate played bass through a 50watt Burmah at home.  

Great days!

EDIT: Actually, I think that should be 'Burman'  not 'Burmah.' 

Talking about economists: I fail to understand why anyone would want to devote their working life to toiling away within a Ponzi scheme that could (and will!) collapse at any moment in time.

The Stock Market is a Chaotic system. Someone with experience may be able to give a reasonable prediction of tomorrow's events but will stand no chance of an accurate prediction in a month's time. Bit like weather forecasting, or predicting global warming!

Someone else having trouble getting the message over.....

I will stick to tossing my coin (and read into that whatever you want).

I think I'll join the Tossers too Eggy!  The plain fact is: Leave or Remain, TTIP will still be forced upon us because corporations, not governments, rule the world.

The ONLY way Joe & Joanne Public will be any better off is if the 99% rise up against the 1% GLOBALLY.

Don't know about 'decision made' Eggy.

There's a tiny probability, though entirely possible, that the coin will land on its edge!
