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

OR we close the tunnel and check every single ship docking in the UK and put the illegals back on a boat instantly

Close the Tunnel? Are you even listening to yourself? Do you know how quickly that would cripple the economy? And check every boat? Seriously? Also, do you have any idea how long it takes to check the bona fides of an immigrant, whether legal or otherwise?

as we won't have the Silly EU laws saying we can't report anyone.

EU laws don't say you can't report anyone.

You have 0 say on UK matter you don't even live here and you troll every single thing about the UK in sport and political. I think a ban is in order to be honest.

On the contrary, I'm a proud British citizen with the right to vote in elections.

Where is George in all of this? He has been rather quiet.

No doubt managing the economic fallout of everything.

I'm talking about a wider context than the referendum. The older generation look out for themselves and have systematically taken away the privileges they took for granted from the younger generations.

That they have now voted to take away the right to travel and work freely in the EU is just another long line of rights they've removed from younger people.

Can you stop with that complete rubbish, you're quoting one poll done on 1,400 people. I voted Leave and I'm under 30, a lot of people my age also did the same.

You're still going to be able to travel and work, in the same way that you can travel and work all over the world. Infact we're going to be able to create deals with other countries that might make travelling and working easier that we couldn't before.

Hopefully busy putting together a half decent emergency budget that will limit the damage coming our way.

Quite busy I would imagine. While i might not like the man or what he stands for, he is the best person for the job at the moment.

The endless howls of pain from Leave voters who've suddenly realised the enormity of what they've done will keep me warm during these winter months.

The pound is already back at pre-Brexit levels.

Not against the USD it isn't.

EU laws don't say you can't report anyone..

I meant deport and you knew that

The other comment is in the same context as the knee jerk comments made by the French.

People that say this fundamentally misunderstand currency markets. If we were heading back towards the pre referendum announcement levels it would be a valid point. We are still a long way short of that.

 

[Kenai]

No it's not, before all the referendum stuff kicked off, acts of parliament being passed etc. it was well over 1.50 USD, it's currently at 1.37.

 

[SPG]

Yep and every financial disaster for the next 40 years will be blamed on Brexit and IF we joined the euro.....

 

[deuse]

The pound is already back at pre-Brexit levels.

Yep.

"Pound and shares soar as Brexit fears ease"
"The FTSE 100 saw £47.5bn added to the value of the UK’s top companies, with the index up more than 3% - its biggest daily rise since February."

It was not well over 1.5 at all and was bang on about 1.5 USD as the markets took a gamble on remain. Before the gamble it has been floating around the 1.43 mark.

That article is from Monday when polls showed Remain gaining traction?

Unless you are seeking employment you will still be able to travel and work in the EU on the automatic visa you get on entry.

I've highlighted the problem.

 

[Freefaller]

Please read

Can we please stop the "them and us" behaviours and the immature tit-for-tat point scoring, a lot of which are teetering on the edge of personal attacks.

If we have to continue to moderate the thread, it'll just be closed and you'll only have yourselves to blame.

I know this is a lot to expect from GD but I urge you to calm yourselves and engage in mature conversations and debate without name called or using divisive language.

Thank you.

I think you'll find it was.

I'm talking before the referendum was announced, before we passed the acts of parliament to enable a referendum etc. as that's when the effects of the associated risk started affecting the price.

Says updated 47mins ago when I just looked...

Actually, your right I think!

So we can't have a democracy as the markets don't like it?
