Is there a real risk of Northern Ireland and the ROI coming back together? Would the rest of the UK like to see this happen?

If he didn't care then he wouldn't have made a statement and he certainly wouldn't have made a statement in which he made sure to make the £250bn "emergency funds" clear.
This volatility in the markets is far from over.

Watch the news,listen to what leavers have voted for. Majority of leavers have voted on immigration alone, and a majority of them actually think what I wrote.

Also how is reducing immigration to a manageable level the same as "kicking people out of the country"

The vitriolic responses from the remain people is bloody disgusting.
Not here but facebook and twitter, talk about sore losers.
The in campaign did not help itself at all with Eddy lizard and scruffy Bob Geldof.
They also kept shouting in debates which scored them no points at all.
British people do not like being shouted at, told what to do or go unheard when voicing opinions.
The EU has paid the price of poking a bulldog with a cattle prod.
Correct.

Sadly I think you're right at least for some people - really makes me sad to be British.

Yes, but was a response to Housey about young people voting and how many of them actually voted.

Not for much longer, she's to be deported.

Why is freedom of movement such a big deal. If it's that big positive a thing for the EU, then they should be rubbing their hands that the rest of the EU can get the benefit of free movement whilst the UK doesn't.
If they genuinely want to maintain the EU's cohesion going forward they will very quickly need to concede on that point otherwise they can expect the Greek et al financial issues they've been kicking along the road for the best part of the past 10 years to now rapidly come back to bite them on the arse. Hence why the EU are coming out that they need to sort it out pronto. We've called their bluff on this one and are in the position of power, the EU could lose everything they've built up over the past 70 years if they don't.
The UK's position in the EU is another thing they've kicked down the road since day one. From day one, it should have been all or nothing - not the sitting on the fence scenario we ended up in.

With respect, I think you're making a mistake by thinking like a Brit that free movement is a bad thing (understandable given the context of this referendum). To have the good thing - free trade - you must accept the bad thing - free movement. However within the EU, they don't see free movement as a bad thing - it's a good thing, one of their founding principles. A lot of them probably can't understand why we don't want it. So I think it is entirely possible to de-couple free movement from the issue of free trade - as Canada are about to demonstrate.
Also, it's important to understand that free movement isn't a binary option - there's lots of different questions to be answered and any agreement we strike I expect to be reciprocal.
I asked a bit earlier along with others,
Where is George Osborne, he has been suspiciously quiet for the past week, i am beginning to think him and Cameron never saw eye to eye on this and that Osborne was secretly in favour of leave, but stood by his mate instead and stayed out of the limelight mostly.

When Cameron goes, Osborne goes. They're essentially a double-act.

Well Nige needs people to fire back to Bongo Bongo land and we all know how boisterous the extreme right wing get without people to bully. It would be unfair to leave those people without toys to play with.

I know. I am not saying it is a bad thing. I am saying that we cant have free trade if it means free movement as that would undermine the election result. As far as i am aware no country in Europe even if not a member can have one without the other.
Canada is an entirely different situation. They didnt just exit the union.
Its basically like us saying: "na we are leaving but we would still like all the good stuff that just benefits us".
It would be suicide for the EU.
I think you'll find she has a British (EU) passport as has my wife and she's from Africa. If you're a British national you're British regardless of where you were born.
There is a misconception that leave people all hate foreigners and want to kick them out. Very different from having control and choosing who comes in and out. There's a lot of English I'd happily see kicked out and replaced by some nice Africans but that's not the answer.

What is it with these people? They just don't get it at all, bloody retards.
Its this kind of mentality that's made us leave.

Exactly.
I personally don't believe we will even leave the EU. A new deal will be made in the next few months and will either just be accepted by our "Brexit" government stating it's the best deal possible, or we will get another referendum.
