I wonder whether the BBC and the government have considered the possibility that the one million people who watch programmes on iPlayer without a TV license may decide to stop watching BBC programmes altogether rather than paying the fee?
Leavers whining even more than Wenger tonight. It's NOT FAIR!!
Good night all.
The only whining I can see tonight is the Remain camp on leave posters,you lot are doing the whining(flightpath01 - for example) Leavers pointing things out.
Could I repeat my request for confident Leavers to start buying on Betfair? If it is nailed on to Leave then 3.2 is free money. Thanks in advance :-)
Edit: now 3.45 for Leave - surely there should be plenty of takers on here?
Great advice from foxinsoxuk. He's a doctor, you can trust him

How about those of us who watch live TV but from Sky and other competitors to the BBC and aren't too bothered by the BBC's trash TV? Can we opt-out of payments if the payment is now a fee for BBC content and not a tax on live TV?
"Donald Trump ... has now lost 80%, four out of five of the closed primary states where Republican voters are choosing the Republican nominee. Upcoming we have over 20 states that are closed. If Donald Trump keeps that losing record only winning one out of five with over 1,000 delegates being distributed in these upcoming 20 closed primary and caucus states, Donald Trump is in a world of trouble. "
This is overegging it a bit, but trump's differential performance in open/closed primaries is definitely something to consider.
Trump is fighting an air war.
The 5 states that vote on Saturday are all closed primaries.
Advantage Cruz/Rubio/Kasich
Yes, that's an interesting article. I agree it's over-egging it, but there could be some truth in it.
It's not so much air war vs ground war, though - the sheer number of contests mean that it's hard for any candidate to get a ground-war advantage in primaries (as opposed to caucuses). It's more about whether independents can vote.
Trump is also trying to turn this into a virtue. He is arguing that he is bringing new people into the GOP. It is an argument with merit (even though I am hoping against hope Trump will not be the nominee). A look at the numbers turning up to the GOP vs Dem primaries is an ominous sign for the Dems, even if the polls are showing both Bernie and Hillary beating Trump. Trump can make a very creditable claim that he is the reason for this.

Even Hitler and Stalin didn't require people to pay to be indoctrinated, at risk of criminal penalty.
There might not have been a specific *indoctrination tax* like (I guess you'd argue) the license fee, but i'm pretty sure paying for state propaganda under hitler & stalin wasn't optional. oh, and the consequences of dissent a tad more severe.
But that's just my view
Anyway, do you take a view on the betfair POTUS odds?
Do you believe that there will be migrant camps in Kent or that British tourists will be left stranded in Calais?? I find it odd how some people on here have no problem with the govt telling outright falsehoods when they would have torn into Labour doing the same thing at general election.
The migrant camp one was a stroke of genius. It's garbage of course, but the Leave side was dishonestly trying to make hay from the Calais chaos, despite the fact that everyone knows it has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with our membership of the EU. Cameron cornered the dishonest Leavers into arguing the truth, thus neutralising the nonsense. I was impressed.
If Cameron left a burning bag of crap on your doorstep you would be impressed...
"Cameron forced me to open the scorched front door, and neutralise the fire whilst covering my shoes in hot dog shit. I was impressed."
What a sad bunch of twerps you lot are. You don't see it do you.
