Well I have already voted LEAVE


No need to shout: although it's the leave campaign that have tended to shout more from my observations where a quiet voice of reason might be a little more respectable.

I look forward to see the maps of remain/leave. I seems as though the urban areas will have much more remain than the provincial/rural. I was down in Eastbourne yesterday and could only see leave posters.

I was down in Hastings yesterday and on the trip down and back on the A21 I could see both remain and leave. The majority of people will have made their mind up in an unanimated way and keep their choice to themselves however all the SE coastal towns are the refuge for those Londoners who have had enough and voted with their boots by leaving London and to be fair if near retirement age cashed in on their London property prices. I would also suggest they are Brexit, white and what we use to call working class. There are exceptions to the rule and plenty of none-white families want the same thing and they too want out of London, a quieter environment and capitalise on their property price. Funnily enough my mate and his family were card toting CP members years ago living in Downham and then Catford all of the their lives until moving to Hastings several years ago. Being Guardian readers they are definetly Remain.

Overall though I would agree with Richard that the coastal population will vote Brexit and when you look at the towns where illegal immigrants accumulate on arrival like Deal and Dover then that is a big issue for those people and they are definetly 'Brexit'.

Of course the consequences of the sad death of Jo Cox really strengthened the 'Remain' argument as she was a predominant 'Stay' supporter.

Funny campaign and topic though as the left , the right, the middle, the greens even the anarchist still have different opinions on this matter of varying levels.
