Keith ****ing Vaz now crying about the result.

Well Keith, you could have done your damn job and offered some proper reform and maybe people would have been swayed.

Instead you and your pals at the EU decided to try calling the UK's bluff and taking the **** and it's backfired.

No sympathy from me.

I wonder if the EU are going to regret not taking this thing seriously and not offering any real reform to Cameron when asked. Sure they were worried about it but now reality is going to set in over the next year and they're going to have plenty of domestic trouble. Germany should be especially worried... some fragile Southern European economies who might need support in the years to come, we're not going to be on the hook for that. Would be silly of them to be too aggressive with us too... their own exporters won't be happy if they are.

We will be stronger. By growing food for ourselves in Africa. A continent where many are starving and huge tracts of land are being "reappropriated" from native african farmers and sold to large corporations...

As it's going to take 2 years of preparation before we actually leave, do all the bad things we were warned of (economy, recession, job losses, etc) start now or in two years?

It will happen sooner rather than later, especially for multinationals using UK as a EU hub, I can imagine the lack of free trade will scare them back towards EU countries - it will just be cheaper/easier.

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
I'll dig the paperwork out for my Irish grandfather and go through the citizenship application I think. This is going to get too messy.

Firstly, no it wont grow faster, not when big business will set up in the EU and not the UK for their own economic interests. The smaller business in the UK right now that rely on trading or buying from the EU will have to raise prices which is likely to cause many of them to struggle.

How on earth people think the UK and its small population can demand better trade deals that a block the size of the EU single market is beyond me.

Would I like to see the UK do well from this, of course. Is it likely to ruin a lot of businesses and lives for a long time before it even looks like UK starts to get stronger again, of course.

Its not about 'demanding,' it's about 'negotiating' and when you have 28 countries with polar differences in goals, aspirations, needs, wants it becomes almost impossible to negotiate anything!

7 years to get a deal with Canada and still not finished... it's because no one in the EU can agree, nothing to do with complexities and it is this 'all members must agree' issue that has led to the wonderful EU having so woefully few ratified trade deals... it really is a rubbish organisation!

Lol, how much do you think all our electronic goods are going to rise by now, in fact anything we import will be up twenty percent over the next year.
Recession on the way.
If we get a knock on effect throughout europe, then it'll be utterly messy.

Norn iron, in april expected to be 70% remain, the leaver pre election hoped for 38% of the vote, they ended up with 44%.
Dup did their job, got people out to vote leave.

Now we await a border with the south again, utterly messy indeed.


Now we need a strong government, a united gov from all sides, to get us the best deals across the world and in europe now.
Devisive farage needs shot right now, take the result, shoot him, then negotiate strony rather than have him slobber all over the place for the next number of weeks further weakening Britian.

Why will electronic goods be 20% more expensive though?
 
Jesus I wish I didn't have to go to work today.
God please next step PR in the UK and hang all the Etonians.

None of them took it seriously. I voted out, and I'm genuinely surprised.

There won't be anymore referendums, leave is a done deal.

Um, no it isn't. This isn't a binding referendum. As has been stated many times.

The fact that the result wont be a 'done deal' is kind of the point of it not being binding.
