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

[Mauller]

I'm not ashamed at all; I'm still proud to be British and I'm still proud of Great Britain.

But I am disappointed that people were so easily sucked in by such transparent fearmongering and lies. Project Fear won the day for Farage and Gove.

Project fear from the leave side? rather hypocritical with the fear mongering and doom saying of the remain side.

Why are you ashamed?

I see this word thrown around a hell of a lot the past few days. What is their to be ashamed of?

 

[StriderX]

I still think this was Cameron's desire all along, he's an excellent liar.

As voted for by the old gits who saw the EU set in place,



Maybe the yoof should have tried votin' instead of sleepin' on Thursday, then maybe now they wouldn't be whinin'.

 

[stewski]

Remain was completely propped up by the Jocks who can't wait to tell England to **** off.

And London.

 

[toshj]

Just like the past 2 general elections have lied to us to get into power.

Yes, but their lies had four year timespans and the lies had the chance to be corrected by following governments. Gove's lies are permanent, even terminal.

I think a year from now when the economic impact will really be felt, when many people will lose their jobs, when (especially small) businesses struggle and when the real exodus begins, people might be more inclined to decide against going forward with the split. For now, it's simply too early.

Of course, considering how it was mainly old farts that have voted overwhelmingly to leave, maybe not - what do they have to worry about except going to the pub to whinge about how things are no longer like in the 70s. Meh.

Overall though, I'm not that worried, the main thing that will come from this is the UK will bleed more financially, but it will mostly be regular folk that will suffer (and they have themselves to blame for that). Will be amusing to see all the poverty-stricken parts of the country, that have seen massive investment from the EU and that have voted against it, get their comeuppance.

You do not deserve to call yourself British. You are an example of everything that was wrong. I hope the best for all my fellow brits, financially I am well of, but I don't worship money and I respect people. You should pray.

If Remain had have won narrowly but with England voting leave, do you think Sturgeon would be calling on the English to have a referendum on whether they should break ties with Scotland for cruelly keeping them in an institution against their wishes?


Yeah...thought not

 

[Darujhistan]

What happened Dave and George's emergency budget?

 

[wildman]

That now must be delivered on or face revolt. All that was promised must be delivered.

does that also include the 350 million that was going to be paid to the NHS once we quit the EU ?

 

[Qel]

What happened Dave and George's emergency budget?

That was a non-starter, he would have to get it through parliament, he wouldn't have gotten it past his own party let alone the rest.

Yeah...thought not

I also wonder if remain had won but with the Midlands and the North voting Leave would there be calls for those areas to secede from the UK?

 

[Darujhistan]

I still think this was Cameron's desire all along, he's an excellent liar.

I don't think so, his legacy is now a complete disaster. You're right about him being an excellent liar though.

 

[Concrete]

You should pray.

I'm not religious, but if those who are think it can make some kind of difference to this mess, please do it!

 

[Destination]

Now semi-retired - I do the odd bit of consulting/contracting just to keep my skills fresh.

In what?
Given that you are a UK partner, and EU partner for the next number of years anyway?
Were they long term contracts, or have they just slapped you in the face for being British?

I'd think it is more a slap because they can, certainly over the next 2 years, after that it'll depend on what our agreement is as to whether people will dump us or not.

 

[Poneros]

You do not deserve to call yourself British. You are an example of everything that was wrong. I hope the best for all my fellow brits, financially I am well of, but I don't worship money and I respect people. You should pray.

Everything that was wrong? Like what? I don't wish anyone else harm, I just know they will be.

Personally I'm excited about the exit, because I'm a shark so I know I will do well from it, but that's the irony - most people who voted against it won't, and there's just something poetic about that.

 

[Darujhistan]

That was a non-starter, he would have to get it through parliament, he wouldn't have gotten it past his own party let alone the rest.

Yeah good example of project fear though. Either vote to remain or we'll whip you even harder.

 

[davewhite04]

We are on uncertain ground, but now it's the job of everyone involved to try and forge a way forward. Assuming any way forward will be negative is not going to help anyone, we need a united front to show to the EU (backing our politicians), or they'll try and take us to the cleaners even more.

One thing should be clear, we do have some options now, many options in fact, and the right decisions need making to keep our country strong. It's not the end of the world.

Interesting technology.

What happened Dave and George's emergency budget?

George is doing Dave's first.
