Can It Really Be Done And Dusted?

The way some Britex people are talking you might think the plebiscite next week is little more a formality. Is it wise to count your chickens?
"But we are the people of England; and we have not spoken yet."
It's not, as they say, over 'til the fat lady sings.

There are some excellent attempts to establish the facts- for example Radio 4 has a daily lunchtime More Or Less programme which analyses the statistics- and they have debunked many statistics from both sides but have also shown that as with many statistics the devil is in the detail and both sets of apparently contradictory data can be correct (eg 7% of our laws are made by Europe v 70% of our laws). But most of the projections are just nonsense- e.g. house prices will rise/fall by 20%, wages will fall by 5% and I am sure most people are not fooled by them.
Most of the people i have asked ( and myself included ) are in the "remain" camp. Some people i have asked have stated they are voting to leave the Eu, but these tend to be the "daily mail reading omg all these bloody foreigners are going to come over and take all our women n jobs types" and seem to forget to look at the bigger picture.
@indefinable.....Each to their own because I am yet to speak personally to anyone who wants 'In'.
My wife keeps asking strangers she meets on buses, in shops, etc. which way they are voting and keeps getting the reply 'Out'. She, like myself, is yet to find anyone who says 'In'.
All rather strange when we live in an area with a Conservative MP who is endeavouring to get people to believe that 'In' is the right direction to vote.
