All the frantic hyperbole from pundits on referendum vote is as much smoke and mirrors as the decision is elementary, to remain in or leave EU, that is the question.

Considering the campaign pattern is similar to 43 years ago, retaining status quo seems probable, Brits are pragmatic.

The result will be a clear victory for steady democracy.

So no midsummer nightmare, just an interlude before the inevitable euroquake effects EU change.

Most important is the quality of politicians entrusted to carry out the will of the people.
