Poll: The Official OcUK EU Referendum Exit poll (and results discussion thread)

[Steedie]

I suppose the best news, in this truly horrible situation is that UKIP will retire and we won't see them again. I mean their separatist mission us over now, right?

They'll be back as something else, Farage isn't going anywhere

 

[JoeF1]

Eugh, how can leave supporters think this is a good idea? The EU is not going to give us favourable treaties and trade agreements, that would encourage other states to hold a referendum as well. It's in the EU's best interests to make negotiations as tough as possible for the UK now to dissuade more dissenters.

I think the UK leaving the EU would spark off other Countries to think about doing the same. I doubt looking at how bad the EU 'may' treat the UK would stop this from snowballing.

A short time ago, justice secretary and prominent Leave campaigner Michael Gove says David Cameron "deserves to be remembered as a great prime minister".

He stressed:

He has led this country with courage, dignity and grace. He and the chancellor rebuilt the economy. He has made opportunity more equal in our society. He has exemplified the very best in public service. He deserves to be remembered as a great prime minister."

More BS from the little gimp.

They might go the way of the BNP, as in they will still exist but no one will talk about them.

Unlikely but rejoining should be fairly simple for the next couple of years.

Hmm but surely Scotland would then need to meet all of the EU's criteria as well as have agreement from all member states.

Scotland leaving the UK is likely to mean they don't meet all of that criteria, which would delay their entry whilst they resolve those.

And more importantly, what if the member states don't want Scotland - kind of saying "if you don't come with the rest of the UK then we don't want you either".

Sturgeon will go down an immensely risky path if Scotland separates from the UK to then find that Scotland can't secure EU membership.

It'll almost be like they've been left out to dry.

I voted remain.

I'm saddened and heartbroken that lies and hatred won.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Brilliant

Can't wait until it's Germany and Turkey left (notsrs before you guys start )

Eurabia

 

[Neil79]

Germans saying " Yunker(?) " should step down and also the conservatives are a massive fault in all of this

 

[adam cool dude]

EU will punish the UK (well mostly england in the end) for this decision during exit negotiations. What does England has to offer after it's out that EU needs? NOTHING. You have no idea what you've done.

What EU? We are the first of many to leave the EU now.

 

[platypus]

Gimmigrents?

Wow, we can truly see what kind of lovely people have caused this situation.

One of Deuse's favourite buzzwords .

The worlds 5th largest economy has nothing to offer. And they say the leave voters are ignorant

France overtook us as the fifth largest economy earlier this morning.

 

[platypus]

It would be Political suicide to suggest free movement of people from the EU now. That's no longer a reality.

Afraid it is a reality; it's highly likely to be part of any offer from the EU.

We've been trading places for the past 20 years, hardly the massive event everyone is claiming it is.

Not really any choice? You want access to the EU free market, those are the rules. Unless we manage to negotiate out of it but Norway and Switzerland didnt.

Political suicide for whoever is in government maybe.

But what did leaver voters honestly expected? That we could just close our borders?

Was just about to post that, made me chuckle lol

One of Deuse's favourite buzzwords .

And as usual he couldn't even retype it from BNP pamphlet without spelling mistakes.

 

[Neil79]

Tell ya what, instead of attacking Nigel, why not attack the secondary cause of all of this

David Cameron and the tories

 

[Closing]

I voted remain.

Blah blah blah, change the record!

 

[Robbo]

So Cameron is going now too, always fairly likely but he didn't hang around in announcing his resignation.

I think there's a lot of scaremongering still going on, but ultimately things will generally return to normal over the next few weeks.

I'm still surprised at how the vote turned out, fair play to everyone for not bottling it, as I thought they probably would. Nobody on either side of the Remain or Leave fence can take much high ground, there were plenty of lies on both sides.

The EU speakers all look shell-shocked by this, which is no bad thing in my opinion.
