A protest vote against Europe and immigration, easy to spread fear with those Two

Nope - I disagree - the people of the UK aint silly ffs
The simple fact is that the EU isn't the Common Market we joined therefore we need a referendum - because the EU has changed since the mid 1970's
I have a really silly thing I choose to call a brain.
To me - and hopefully you - the choice is to be part of Europe, playing a proper role - like ruling or leading it - through fully embracing it and playing a leading role.
OR
Leaving
Personally - I believe our future is in Europe and playing a key role
and I think the choice should be debated and given - labours stance is cr@p - whats the SNP policy?
They want to stay in the EU but some scots want a Scottish Republic, can't say if a British Republic will be deemed acceptable.
Based on percentage of votes cast I'm thinking The SNP would certainly have taken a much bigger share of the vote if it had candidates standing throughout the UK, granted those votes down south would have been a protest vote as was UKIPs, the protest vote though would not have been against the Tories, their vote stood firm, it would have been against a weak Labour and Lib Dems.
