The horrendous thing IMO is that so many people just don't know what the vote next weekend could have as consequences if they vote NO....
Probably because it is not really clear what actually the consequences will be.
I have read quite contradicting information, so I feel pretty much confused what to expect.

Allegedly, there is a 'guillotine clause' in the bilateral treaties, saying that in case of a 'no', it will take only 6 months the treaties to expire.

Another source was claiming, that this 'guillotine clause' would not come into place/would be reversed.

Anyway, I am a Swiss in the UK, without any resident permit, just here because the bilateral treaties made this possible, so I am actually pretty nervous about the outcome.
Don't want to be kicked out of the country...
