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

[Maccapacca]

About "The Jungle" moving. France handles the UK border on their side. I highly doubt they will handle it now.

We pay them a considerable sum to do it.

I'd love to see a study on age and propensity for xenophobic/racist views.

I have a strong suspicion it'll have played a more than minor role in the voting...

I can't speak for my age group, but immigration had zero influence on my voting choice. I've seen a similar trend on FB and I don't understand why the Remain crowd automatically assume that Leave votes were about immigration?!

Undoubtedly some were, but not all.

 

[Demon]

Ok LEAVERS how will this dumb nation get control of it borders?

I don't know, without the EU to handhold and tell us how to do it, it must be impossible right and we should start boarding up our windows?

Immigration is not the main reason people voted leave you know..

Went to pay monthly server bill.

Dollar exchange rate is cack.

Cost about £1 more than last month.

Well i'm finding it hilarious over in another thread where some posters are moaning about the costs of the Graphics Cards have gone up.

*facepalm*

All the remainers just can't understand things not going their way, and the frustration theyre feeling now is completely new to them. This is because the country has been decided for them and towards their values for so long, but they aren't the only people in the country and lots of people out there have been angry at the direction of the country for a really long time and they used this as an opportunity to say so.

So the remainers are thinking 'wtf just happened' because they were clueless that people different to them even existed or they pretended they were just hateful xenophobic hateful people like Nigel and the answer to them is just organise a few anti-racism protests and call them racist.

It took a nose dive immediately after joining the EU and has been in an almost constant state of recession and borrowing ever since.

Wait, doesn't that show that the GDP had annual growth every year whilst in the EU, apart from a handful of years, with the big dip in 2009 being the global crash? Or am I reading it wrong.

 

[The Mad Rapper]

Served his purposes though didn't it. It's not as if many other of the Leave claims stood up to any real scrutiny but this vote was never about facts for many just their own perceptions.

Politician in blatant lie shocker.

 

[smargh]

Remain.

My sister voted Leave. This morning she said (while apologising): "... but I didn't think they would actually win!!"

*sigh*

She's been watching BBC News non-stop since she woke up. Buyer's remorse.

I like the comments from this tweet: https://twitter.com/louisa_compton/status/746279848180592640

100%.


They don't like it up 'em!

What?! Does she actually have a grasp the concept of voting?

 

[grudas]

Something something now we can keep the darkies out.

Or something.

darkies? are you trolling or what? what does skin colour have to do with it?

why are you even bringing colour/race into this?

 

[awaybreaktoday]

I do wonder, if things become difficult, could we end up part of the European Free Trade Association?

I know the bigwigs at the EU are saying out is out and we've had it (an attitude I dislike immensely), but the reality is they need us as much as we need them.

They just need us to buy their goods, but they do not need to buy our goods.

No they were moaning that the costs had been put up even though the pound recovered quite quickly this morning, and no other UK component store was putting up prices.

 

[wildman]

Stop talking rubbish.

so you think the French authorities will actually try and stop them from coming to the UK now ?

I wouldn't be suprised if in some dark corridor of the EU building that someone hasn't already sent out some instructions to the French border guards to start taking "extended lunch breaks" .

parts of Kent are going to look like a frigging war zone over the next 18 months

 

[[TW]Fox]

Well for starters we won't have the EU dictating to us what our 'quota' will be for the year.

We didn't anyway which is why we took hardly any.

Think this is known as "Polly Toynbeeism".

Recovered quite quickly?! It's at 1.38!!

Oh great. a Dad's Army quote. Says it all really.

 

[do_ron_ron]

Yup. I don't see them going independent anytime soon.

In fact, when emotions settle down, and negotiations with the EU begin, the SNP might find themselves losing popularity in Scotland as people decide they don't want another referendum after all. Especially so if Labour can make a resurgence under a non-London based leader.

Anti-Labour feeling is deeper than any 'London based Leader'. It is due to their remote control from Westminster. As one of their previous leaders said 'I am only a Branch manager'. The new Leader has said that nothing will change.

I think it is people like you who are clueless what this means.

Every economic forecast saying this is bad. It is like a cardiovascular surgeon tells you smoking is bad for you and you do it anyway. Then you run the risk of cancer or a life of looking cool like Steve McQueen.

What's more likely to happen? Getting cancer or looking like the cooler King?
