Brexit: the referendum

Listening to another member of the British public on 5 live, the factual inaccuracies were frightening:

- We import 10 times as much from the EU as we export to the EU
- There will be no tariff barriers in our dealings with the rest of the world

Golly, he's going to be in for a shock when he realises what's likely to happen.
 
So Cameron's personal political gamble results in the country getting ********** in the ass by Farage and his flag waving sheep wrapped in the tabloids.

A manufactured "problem" that doesn't really exist except in the fevered minds of tabloid "journalist" doing the divide and conquer of Murdoch's desires for him, and the decades of politicians sucking up to them, legitimising their bs, has led to the coming recession for several more years at least, and the global futures of our young people dragged into ****.

Leave was all lies. The British old ***** are a bunch of wankers, they couldn't see that!

Yes. Agreed totally. I suspect there will be thousands of Brits who voted to leave waking up and saying "what the **** did I do?".

By the way I just saw some of the criminally dishonest adverts of lines of Syrian refugees used by the Leave side. People who would never be allowed into the UK.

Scum.
 
Politicians in Northern Ireland are now talking about having a poll of NI citizens about having a united Ireland. So this may result in England and Wales all alone in the grip of right wing ideologues, unless the mass of English middle class wake up… I've already heard Labour being blamed for this tory **** up!
 
Another silver lining.....

Since 2008 there have been a number of "stress tests" carried out on European banks to see whether they can weather some international choppy waters. I guess we get to see whether those stress tests - where most banks have passed - are actually any use...
 
I think this means Bojo will be PM in the short term. I wonder how the residency of EU citizens will work. Presumably current residents will have a choice to stay in the UK but what about those in limbo?

As a mildly pro-EU person, it's a surprise to see this, but I am sure the UK will ride out the storm.

I think this is very likely now.
 
Yep, watching you lot weeping and crying like spoilt children. It's beautiful.

Things will settle down over the next few months. In the meantime I shall continue to observe with glee. What a great day. Toodle-pip!

Yeah, third-world country status... until China buys them for few cups of rice.
 
As a Norwegian, I wish the Brits much good luck in negotiating favourable deals with the EU from the outside. Much good luck.
 
I thought public opinion on Northern Ireland was massively against Irish unity. The margin in favour of leave in the Brexit referendum seems very unlikely to be correlated with it

Until the North see the continued benefit the Republic gets from EU membership.....
