out of interest, why?

Do you think the UK public will vote for an exit?

Do you think that the Tory pledge to meet the ?8bn NHS shortfall is less credible than Labour's refusal to commit to meeting that same shortfall? To me, neither party is able to do anything with the NHS other than chuck cash at it and try to save cost as best they can. We have an ageing population. Nowt any party can do about that.

The only thing that does worry me is the future of the Union, but I don't know to what extent the SNP will agitate for another referendum (as I suspect that in the long run they do better by having the English bogeyman in Westminster. This is their high water mark and they'll know that.)
