When, in my youth, I was employed by a company to conduct publicity voxpops I struggled to find any willing participant during the day who had a job. This was a severe challenge because I was supposed to come back with a mix of occupations. I hated doing them and found another job soon after. Getting a decent mix of ten voxpops during office hours often took several hours.Fenster said:

Of course they don't, but how hard is it to show some respect? Even if they think the rally is an attempt to influence the referendum.
In this case, the people who are not showing respect are the people holding the memorial. Why get in the way of a democratic campaign?
There have already been umpteen tributes before the vote, why not hold the memorial after it?
Unless of course its a nakedly political attempt to hijack a sad death.0 -

I wonder why they bother with vox pops - the news is quite start, rarely is there time to cover a complex story in any depth, and vox pops eat in considerably to the the presentation time. Would make much more sense to have one of those dreaded experts witter on for 30 seconds than a bunch of not-actually-random (and therefore unlikely to be truly representative) people.
I assumed vox pops were just cheaper, but you're making it sound like that isn't the overriding reason!0 -

It was a horrible murder, and a terrible crime, and those motherless kids deserve all the hugs in the universe, but, really, get a grip. Her death is now very clearly being exploited, indeed over-exploited, by the REMAINIANS.

Thanks for that, Mr. Robert a very interesting and informative post.rcs1000 said:
I spend a lot of time with EU politicians, and mostly they're obsessed with their own problems. They want to make the Eurozone work, within the limits imposed by their own electorates. Most of all, they want to get re-elected, and they don't want the train to come off the track.HurstLlama said:
I tend to agree but the question is why did that not happen? Perhaps because Cameron didn't want it so he never asked. Perhaps because the EU would have refused it utterly. Who knows we will have to wait for the memoirs and the historians.rcs1000 said:
This has been my view throughout: us leaving the EU would be good for both us and the rest of the EU.SeanT said:A fine and lucid essay by a Galician professor (Jean Monnet chairholder!) asking the Brits to leave, for the sake of Britain, and for the future of democracy in Europe.
http://capx.co/please-leave-a-letter-to-the-uk-from-the-scorched-lands/
The biggest mistake that was made was not using this as an opportunity to change the EU into Eurozone plus Associate Members. Not two speed, but two destinations. One a political union, the other an economic one.
We would have taken Sweden and Denmark with us for sure, and possibly Poland.
They are certainly not doctrinaire. Schauble, and most senior German politicians, would rather Greece had chosen to leave the Euro than to stay. They thought Grexit would make the Eurozone stronger, rather than weaker, and would free up resources to use on countries that had gone through painful reform programmes.
If David Cameron had gone to Copenhagen and Stockholm and put together a non-Eurozone grouping, and then gone together to discuss with the Eurozone states about what could be done to enable: (a) the EZ to make the reforms it needs to survive, and (b) how non-EZ countries could opt out of the political union, I think it would have been welcomed rather than rebuffed. Simply, Schauble and Macron don't want to spend their time arguing with Cameron, they want to fix the problems they have.
So, why didn't this happen?
Because Cameron wanted to get the Euro "thing" done and behind him. Formally changing the EU treaties into Eurozone and Associate Member would have involved years of negotiating between the non-EZ countries, and a whole new treaty. 2020 would be a best case scenario, and 2022 might have been more likely.
If it is a narrow Remain, as seems likely, changing the treaties to enshrine the Associate Member status is still a necessity. We need to build an alliance of non-Eurozone countries. And I would hope that is what the sensible Leavers in the Conservative Party will have as their goal in such a situation.

It was years ago but certainly wasn't cheap from my experience –doing them was tortuous and very time-consuming, because my employer (quite reasonably) insisted on something that at least gave a nod to a representative sample. You would occasionally find someone normal who would speak to you but then when you told her she was going to be filmed she'd refuse. Most people refused point-blank as they were rushing from one place to the next. As I say, doing the requisite ten voxpops often took several hours and I found the job so frustrating I quickly looked for another job.MyBurningEars said:
Interesting post.Jobabob said:
When, in my youth, I was employed by a company to conduct publicity voxpops I struggled to find any willing participant during the day who had a job. This was a severe challenge because I was supposed to come back with a mix of occupations. I hated doing them and found another job soon after. Getting a decent mix of ten voxpops during office hours often took several hours.Fenster said:
It was the same when the BBC vox-popped people in Barnsley earlier.RodCrosby said:Sky Reporter: everyone in Ashby (Leics) I spoke to is voting Leave.
I wonder why they bother with vox pops - the news is quite start, rarely is there time to cover a complex story in any depth, and vox pops eat in considerably to the the presentation time. Would make much more sense to have one of those dreaded experts witter on for 30 seconds than a bunch of not-actually-random (and therefore unlikely to be truly representative) people.
I assumed vox pops were just cheaper, but you're making it sound like that isn't the overriding reason!0 -

Gove, well, a greyer area - if he apologises for some of his wilder comments then he could have a role in the unifying process. Unifying the country on Friday looks like a huge challenge whatever the result.

I really have no idea but my instinct says that leave will win but we will see. However, what we do know is that the UK is horribly divided and will not be easily united. I believe the chaos following a leave vote will be mirrored throughout Europe and a coalition of all parties may need to be created to resolve with the EU the way forward and to obtain political consensus. Someone was saying that unwinding the laws would take decades and that the make up of the HOC and the Lords would bring everything to a grinding halt.kle4 said:

Anything could happen but Remain has to be firm favourite.
Remember what was said a few weeks ago - Leave needs to be 5% to 7% ahead to be confident of victory - to allow for polling station swingback + Northern Ireland. It's nowhere near that.
Today's Opinium is a tiny move to Leave but Survey Monkey move is more the other way. Survey Monkey may not be such an established pollster but did well at 2015 GE.
MORI slight uptick in Cameron satisfaction - in particular 69% of Con voters satisfied with him - when the pencil is hovering that may well point to more Con waverers sticking with him. If 69% satisfied (and only 27% dissatisfied) with Cameron - will that translate to 60% Leave among Con voters?0 -

It's funny, but whilst all the evidence points towards a knife edge result, my own gut feeling is that this is likely to be decided at least 55/45 one way or the other.

It was a horrible murder, and a terrible crime, and those motherless kids deserve all the hugs in the universe, but, really, get a grip. Her death is now very clearly being exploited, indeed over-exploited, by the REMAINIANS.

No way that Lib Dems are 85% remain, I doubt the SNP are either - Greens probably are. Unless the Labour working class are turning out in droves to vote Leave as they never have before, I'd put LD and Lab support at similar levels - polling indicates this is a fair assumption.rcs1000 said:

Excellent analysisrcs1000 said:
I spend a lot of time with EU politicians, and mostly they're obsessed with their own problems. They want to make the Eurozone work, within the limits imposed by their own electorates. Most of all, they want to get re-elected, and they don't want the train to come off the track.HurstLlama said:
I tend to agree but the question is why did that not happen? Perhaps because Cameron didn't want it so he never asked. Perhaps because the EU would have refused it utterly. Who knows we will have to wait for the memoirs and the historians.rcs1000 said:
This has been my view throughout: us leaving the EU would be good for both us and the rest of the EU.SeanT said:A fine and lucid essay by a Galician professor (Jean Monnet chairholder!) asking the Brits to leave, for the sake of Britain, and for the future of democracy in Europe.
http://capx.co/please-leave-a-letter-to-the-uk-from-the-scorched-lands/
The biggest mistake that was made was not using this as an opportunity to change the EU into Eurozone plus Associate Members. Not two speed, but two destinations. One a political union, the other an economic one.
We would have taken Sweden and Denmark with us for sure, and possibly Poland.
They are certainly not doctrinaire. Schauble, and most senior German politicians, would rather Greece had chosen to leave the Euro than to stay. They thought Grexit would make the Eurozone stronger, rather than weaker, and would free up resources to use on countries that had gone through painful reform programmes.
If David Cameron had gone to Copenhagen and Stockholm and put together a non-Eurozone grouping, and then gone together to discuss with the Eurozone states about what could be done to enable: (a) the EZ to make the reforms it needs to survive, and (b) how non-EZ countries could opt out of the political union, I think it would have been welcomed rather than rebuffed. Simply, Schauble and Macron don't want to spend their time arguing with Cameron, they want to fix the problems they have.
So, why didn't this happen?
Because Cameron wanted to get the Euro "thing" done and behind him. Formally changing the EU treaties into Eurozone and Associate Member would have involved years of negotiating between the non-EZ countries, and a whole new treaty. 2020 would be a best case scenario, and 2022 might have been more likely.
If it is a narrow Remain, as seems likely, changing the treaties to enshrine the Associate Member status is still a necessity. We need to build an alliance of non-Eurozone countries. And I would hope that is what the sensible Leavers in the Conservative Party will have as their goal in such a situation.0 -

It looks to me like those aeroplanes are single engine jobs. It has been a good few years but there are serious height restrictions about flying single engine aeroplanes over built up areas and for london that basically means you can fly up and down the Thames but that is it. There will also be further restrictions because of central London being the flight path into Heathrow. Furthermore those aeroplanes would have been under positive control by the CAA.
So I think the idea that they were flying over Trafalgar Square is a complete nonsense.0 -
