LOL this one.
At least its not 350Million been wasted on the EU now when it could go towards been used in THIS country for ITS PEOPLE.
I still have no regret for voting out...for the long run it was the right choice.
Wheres the ASA when you need them
Sadly, political material isn't part of their remit.

We can equally say that people 25 and under should be excluded as they don't have enough life experience to make a valid decision.

Hopefully not as that is not a democracy regardless of who it affects

Except it is all gone anyway because now our economy will be in a bad state for ages whilst the uncertainty prevails. It will be years before a deal and subsequent trade deals are struck with the EU and other countries and in that time, the UK will be seen as a risk financially.

When will we start talking about moving on as opposed to dwelling on the past? It's all getting a bit depressing now
Moving on?
A decisions to leave will fundamentally affect everyone in this country for rest of their life, possibly dramatically. We will never be able to "move on".
Jesus, the way remainers are going on you'd think the European Union was the entire embodiment of this country, which is precisely the reason for voting out of it, too much control was being handed over.
We need to start article 50, reestablish a trading position, and get on with it. The worlds audience is looking at Britain and all this bickering and dithering is making us look a joke.

In the sense of not acting like 3 year olds who have thrown their toys out of the pram. Not in the sense of lets forget about it all. We need to to focus on the next stages to recover

Yes they did. this says to me the whole 350m which doesn't exist anyway.....
Arguably more has been wiped by markets flapping in moments than we've paid to the big bad EU in the last decade. But this is from a second-hand source, so any trading hawks are free to correct my figures.

There never was 350 million being wasted on the EU. Nice to know your confidence in doing the right thing is intact regardless of facts though.
Yep. Several other countries were going to veto it cause it's a very very bad deal.
But we will sign up to it now with the us cause we will be desperate to have trade deals.
The eu will get a better deal from the us
Yep, there's a lot of immaturity on both sides right now, although I have to say my Facebook is currently dominated by (on the whole) some very bitter remainers letting themselves down. Guess it could have easily been the other way around if we had a different result.
I'd agree with most of your thoughts above, although turnout in Scotland was disappointingly low for the remain camp, and I have no doubt Corbyn's EU track record and then supposed official position of "we should probably, on balance, stay, but..." did mean the Labour remain vote was way more subdued than it could have been. Would have to disagree with you on something though

As a Remainer I was disappointed but not surprised at Jean Claudes statement on "It was never a good relationship" or words to that effect. In times of crisis some leaders act like spoiled kids
Voting to leave did that all on it's own.
Unless you are Putin, Trump, The Sun or the Daily Mail....which says it all really.
I couldn't agree more. Some of the comments on both sides are utterly embarrassing. Sadly, that includes some in this thread too.
It's done. Nobody has a crystal ball. Let's pull together and move on.

Nice post.

Can someone sticky this somewhere?

The bickering isn't great but is at least understandable. The decision without any strategy for exit is what's made us look a joke. The fact that politicians have blatantly misled and openly lied and it's been swallowed by a huge number of people, that's what is baking us look bad. That's without any of the fear factor from either side.
