"Remain" supporters - spot the running theme

You only have to take a cursory look at the people and groups desperately trying to get you to vote Remain to see how very far institutionalised it all is and how those "in the money" feel totally threatened about their lucrative positions and wealth streams.

It's the wealthy 1% vs the 99% hoi-polloi.

Supporters for Remain so far have included:

Barack Obama
The Bank Of England
Ex PMs, Major, Blair and Brown
Sir Bob Geldof
Sir Patrick Stewart
Sir John Hurt
Lord Rose - former chair of Marks & Spencer, Burton Group, Argos and Arcadia Group
Carolyn McCall - EasyJet boss
Dame Julia Goodfellow - Universities UK chief
Richard Branson - multi-millionaire entrepeneur
Danny Boyle - film director
Richard Curtis - film director
Keira Knightley
etc

It's where the money is. These people are part and parcel of "The Institution", the very thing that keeps them wealthy and which keeps ordinary people poor and ever in work.

In the Brexit camp you have the likes of

Sir Michael Caine and Duncan Bannatyne

Wealthy? certainly but the kind of people to speak their minds in no uncertain terms, not your average "silver spoon" blue shirt OxBridge old boy's club network candidate.

The 1%ers seem utterly desperate for your Remain vote. Could it be that the layers of corruption are about to be cleaned away? Can we finally plant the seed for real change in this country to rid ourselves of this insipid lawless blanket of greed and corruption?

We can only hope so.

The more of these 1%er puppets we see wheeled in front of the TV cameras, the more I am utterly convinced we MUST vote BREXIT to finally see change.

I don't care if that temporarily means a difficult period during the transition, the "British spirit" that was so prevalent in the last war will prevail. People will get stuck in and we can get back to being a country again.

Oh! NO.
Not another EU thread.

Mind you I agree with all Realist has said, so I shall excuse it.

It would be nice in memory of Joe Cox the debate would just stop for one day.

In the memory of Joe Cox I say keep talking,talk out about issues that matter,and throw in the odd jocular comment.

Well after seeing the news and the tributes from the Prime Minister and Shadow Prime Minister I thought it would be nice to show some respect.
