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

How to pose with statues :-

They are a figment of Cameroon's and Gideon's imagination!

The Swiss applied to join the EU 24 years ago. Since then they've become less and less convinced that it was the right thing to do, but have left their application on the table just in case circumstances changed and/or the people had a change of heart. They even agreed to be part of Schengen, but two years ago asked Brussels to allow them to set immigration quotas to protect their public services and standard of living. Their polite and earnest request was turned down flat by Merkel and her cronies. That's about the time they decided they'd had enough, but didn't do anything much about it at that time. Well... in a beautifully timed move just seven days before our referendum, they've told the EU to consider their application withdrawn; that it can forget that Switzerland ever applied to join, and that they are utterly set on being an "independent sovereign nation". This is designed to hit the EU at the most embarrassing time, and also send a hearty message to British voters. At least half of Europe (including 61% of the French) are hoping we are going to give the Eurocrats what they've been asking for for over 30 years, and we mustn't disappoint them. We're part of a great continent that is being trashed by its political elites, and a continent that once again desperately needs our leadership. We are never listened to in Brussels, and our sincere and well reasoned reform proposals are always outvoted. It's no wonder that Cameron got nowhere with his watered down proposals, and ended up dropping five of his nine "lines in the sand" and neutering the other four. But, we CAN exert very powerful "influence" for the reform that Cameron is always going on about through our referendum result. In fact a Brexit vote will shock Brussels to its very core; it will then have no option but to start listening to real European citizens, and not the international business lobby groups who currently pull all the strings. Don't fall for the simplistic lie that a Leave vote is being a "little Englander". Amongst other valuable things a Leave vote is being a responsible and caring European - just like our Swiss friends! Love Europe -- Hate the EU -- Help Europeans -- Vote Leave

They Remain to be seen!
