I'm not too sure about the ftse, I don't watch it, but it does seem to be down (not just looking at the ftse 100, which are mostly large multi-nationals anyway).

But Sterling has taken a kicking, we were depressed by 10 cents or more all this year due to brexit fears and it was expected to be around 1.55 once it was all over. Now we are 1.36.

Currently the average uk worker is £300 a month worse off, in terms of purchasing power.

All I see on radio and tv news is people telling us the pound is fine, at the same level is was in February and recovering. That is deeply misleading, it slipped to 1.38 briefly in February, for just 1 or 2 days. Again due to brexit polling shocks.

I'm not hopeful but maybe it will recover to 1.45 in a few weeks, but I doubt it will get back over 1.50 for a long time. You can disagree and say you think it will recover faster but I'm fed up everyone saying the pound has already recovered in the space of a day and everything is hunky dory.

The funniest thing is, the same people that proclaim all is fine with the pound are the same people that start whining about a £5 increase on their >£300 GPU and accusing OCUK of greed and opportunism. Ahh, self-delusion is a wonderful thing! :D
 
Your name is anonymous, nothing else is IIRC.

But there will be thousands upon thousands of identical pieces of paper in each box? All with a vote. How does that bit of paper tie back to an individual? To then say this person is within this age group or this level of education?
 
I wouldn't actually have a problem with a limit on the result but not after it has taken place and not on turnout.

You just cannot retrospectively apply a change just because you didn't get your way

The beeb seem to be carrying it which its no surprise. No one of any authority is even acknowledging it as it's such an embarrassment

A poll for a general election would be a much more effective way to get the result reversed as previously posted

Can't believe that people are asking for a revote. It was stupid when Nigel Farage suggested a revote in the case of close remain result and it's just a stupid now. Leave won. This isn't the way to get your voice heard.

Scotland has demonstrated you get to keep asking the question over and over again.
 
No point having a revote to get the answer you want. You might as well just point out the results aren't legally binding and let Parliament decide not to exit. At least you'd be honestly sweeping aside the results via a legal mechanism instead of playing the system dishonestly until you get the answer you want.

There would be riots if that happened, considering many politically disenfranchised people voted in this referendum since they felt their vote would count.
 
Averting Brexit now would be like trying to uncook a chicken. We need maintain our dignity and get to the next stage as amicably as possible.

And many disenfranchised who voted exit not expecting to win, and some now quite shocked about it. I think people voted that way because they didn't expect their vote to actually change anything.

Do you think we'll see riots from disaffected remain voters? We're not the French...
 
So £350 million and immigration issue have been seen to be a lie less than 24 hours after the vote what did we gain with the leave vote?


Nothing. "independance" and a flunked economy. As well as possibility of even more retarded people being in charge in government, and rights being changed or revoked.

Even if there were some small glimmering positives, they have no way of outweighing the negatives...

The Scottish voted for the status quo. The status quo no longer exists. I can see why a lot of Scots want another referendum.

Running the EU referendum when nothing has changed is just dumb though.
