Gone when the morning come's.
Facebook has descended into a circle jerk of blaming this morning. Lots of accusations, dismay and apparently shame at being a citizen of the U.K. The Brexit voter segment is remarkably quiet, prolly to wazzed up on Last nights booze.
Personally, I blame the EU.
All that said, I'm more annoyed I didn't put £20 on it. Strangely indifferent to the actual result.
Interesting times. Let's see what happens now. I'm a little surprised.
That will teach the EU for not giving Cameron any meaningful reforms when he said we'd leave it they didn't.
Well, thanks very much, you bunch of racist morons.I suppose you'll all be happy when we have PM Boris next week followed by a UKIP landslide at the next election.
I really can't believe you can all be so stupid...
I'm retiring to Scotland when they get back in.
Well they called his bluff, and he didn't lead us out as he said he would so in a way they were correct.Quote:

Cheerio Dave, don't let the door smack your arse on the way out.
Don't know how they knew Lancaster was a bellwether city but they were just about spot on
I came into work this morning and said "what about that then?" to one of my colleagues. "Why what's happened?" she replied. She is a Jehovah's Witness and apparently they don't vote in elections. She genuinely didn't know the outcome of the referendum. Well she certainly got more sleep than me last night!
Having recently retired from the forum, I've just bobbed back for a very brief moment to agree 100% with Geoff. I'm ashamed to be British :(Quote:

Fully agree with that sentiment Stolly. Britain has gone for Vote Stupid. Next shock....break up of the UK..bye bye Scotland and who could blame them. Not looking forward to Farage Land with Daily Mail values :(Quote:

Scotland came within a hairs breadth of leaving the UK before and would almost certainly have had another referendum anyway. I really don't understand their wish to be part of Europe but not the UK.Quote:

It never ceases to amaze me the whining from certain people when they don't get their way in a democratically held election. It really is so pathetic. I voted Leave but I can honestly say that if the vote had been for Remain there wouldn't have been even a murmur of complaint from me. That's democracy, move on.
Like Wheeze, I object to being labelled a racist. I have outlined my reasons for voting leave on this forum and I challenge any of the people above to point out any racism in my comments.
You didn't need to be a racist or a moron to vote out, but almost all morons and racist did vote out.Quote:

Thats just daft and below you mate. There are idiots everywhere.
If you want to point the finger of blame, what about the 41% of Mancunians who stayed away from the polls? A big metropolitan area like that! Even beaten by the Scalleys with a 64% turnout!
bye byeQuote:

Just live with the results. Its nothing in comparison to life.
I went to my Mums funeral last week so get real some of you.
Not so sure. For some that's probably true. But I spoke to a friend the other night who said he wasn't voting because he couldn't decide which way to vote. I think that's a legitimate democratic choice.Quote:

It's also the type of market where the speculators come in and out to take a quick profit.
It will settle down.
Cameron - a few weeks ago he said he would invoke Article 50 immediately following a Brexit vote. That would have been reckless.
He's stepped back from that.
Very misleading though.
Romano Prodi - this morning said it was a shame that the EUs strongest armed forces had now left before they had established the European Armed force.
Interesting comment I thought.
I think they see themselves like Slovakia: they want to be independent of big brother next door, but still a member of the community of small nations in Europe.Quote:

But isn't that the UK's position, independent of big brother, in this case the EU, but an important part of the world wide community.Quote:
