Indeed, when people are posting carp like this as truth and 'current News's or images from today...when it is in fact videos from two years ago

It's a shame the out campaigners can't come up with anything other than lol-immigrants
Cameron came to our place and did a lovely 30 minute speech with a Q&A. By Q&A you had to submit your question for approval and if it was agreed you could ask it and it all looked improvised.
If the person asked such a unchallenging question and couldn't make the Q&A some other lucky sod got to read it out for them. It was such an utter sham, reading our work forum it's pushed more people to exit due to feeling like they had their intelligence insulted and why he couldn't field actual tough questions without prep.
No one submit an easilt acceoted question then when it was thier turn stand up and ask a compeltley differnt one?
Then there is figure 2 that seems to suggest UKIP are doing us no favours. Perhaps if we actually voted in MEP's that cared and actually turned up then that 35% would decrease...
And on the flip side the election will come down to the migration crisis and a turkish influx of migrants because of visa free movement in the Schlangen area... None of which are relevant at all to the UK.
In reality it's unlikely in both cases, but it's always good to put people who may vote differently to you down isn't it...
On an unrelated, more useful note.

Another big plus for the EU that is unlikely to ever have been decided by a British government.
I think you'll find that was thought up by the leave camp, not remain.

Unfortunately that's pretty common when any senior figure goes to any company and discusses any topic. I assume it's because companies don't want to "embarrass" themselves by someone asking a difficult question (like an expenses question during the expenses "scandal").
And it's not as if we can't then vote in a party (such as UKIP) that will give us another referendum in a few years, which we can vote out in.

5%. And we are supposed to not worry? To ignore 'Project Fear'? Is preventing the arrival of a few a Poles and Romanians worth it given the huge risks involved?

I agree, we would lose some influence so there's no argument there as I'm willing to accept the point but you're not the only one who says it. The official in campaign was saying we'd have no influence as well so it's something that needs dispelling as one of those urban myths even if it is fair to acknowledge we'd lose some influence.
Some might be happier with a leave vote knowing that it's not an entire shut out of the EU though so it still has some merit to either sides view.
Is a few pennies worth our sovereignity and independance? We can all make skewed arguments focusing on just single issues and apply them to disproportionate scales. The entire economy vs 1 or 2 romanians? Prob not but when we say our entire sovereignity vs a few pennies then yeah, lets vote out
Total no brainer there 
There's more to the argument though so lets keep it on a fair playing field.

Anyone just see Blair on Marr defending the EU. Made me sick the way he was re-writing history

Despite that it is unacceptable to suggest they shouldn't have their say. We don't elect Government to decide everything because the electorate are too stupid or uninformed.

Are you watching a different campaign than me?
Nope

How do you work that out? If more migrants come to the continent, then over time the rules and regulations that govern the EU will come to reflect that, and will impact on the UK. Regardless of whether migrants coming to the EU is bad, neutral or good, you can not suppose their coming to, for example, Germany will have no impact on the UK due to how the single market operates. The main point is why is it a good for the UK to remain bound by an economic set of rules that have summarily failed to deliver economic growth (the EU's average economic growth rates have been poor compared with the USA), and locked in long term unemployment by failing to reform? The Euro experiment is probably one of the most daft economic experiments in the history of man. The EU represents one unholy mess, and we'd do well to distance ourselves from the desire to integrate into ever closer union (driven by the histories of some member states).

Of course these migrants have no worry in being caught as they know full well once you're in you're in.
Now they've proved the crossing is viable no doubt the people smugglers will be ordering plenty of dinghies.
