~Who can predict this?

When polling indicated a 2/3rds majority in favour of pulling out of the Common Market in 1975 and is turned around to a 2/3rds majority in favour of staying in in the actual Referendum, I should think anything could be possible.

Funnily enough "political freedom and freedom of speech" is compatible with "wiping Liberalism off the map", Mr Anonymous.

In fact, for the former to happen, the latter has to be accomplished.

I wouldn't bet on it. Just look at the Irish referendum on the Lisbon Treaty for starters. Ireland has benefited immensely from shed loads of cash from the EU being pumped into the nation's economy, so it would be logical to expect the Irish to triumphantly vote YES to the Treaty or risk having their money supply from the EU shut off. The BNP has managed to win support from thousands of people who are only interested in footie, booze, and soaps from its anti-Islamic stance. Islam is an issue that worries thousands of people who are otherwise liberals or even chavs, and have little interest in nationalism.

The establishment parties won't hold a referendum because they know what the outcome will be.
