The level of intolerance from the left on anyone who does not share their world view is quite breathtaking this morning.

So much so that I have deactivated my Facebook account before I say something I shouldn't.

Disappointed by the decision, but it's now time for everyone to pull together to make the best of the situation we've put ourselves in. It's not time for political opportunism or mindless bickering.

Whatever happens, we've got an interesting few years ahead of us.

I think it's fair to say there is a level of intolerance on both sides of the fence - it was the same before the vote and was always going to happen which ever way the vote went.

Only have to look at some of the stuff being said on here about Scotland and what Farage is saying

Watched and listened to Mark Carney's statement earlier this morning made to reassure and calm the markets - and I thought that there's a guy who knows what he is talking about, he and the BoE has clearly assessed the risks of Leave as they have contingency and mitigation plans in place for this eventuality. And so as they listened I wonder how many Leave supporters were thinking back to their words of condemnation and dismissal of his statements of concern made over the last few weeks - when as an expert - not to be trusted - in the pocket of Cameron - he was just another a scaremonger. The Governor of the Bank of England - who now has to lead sorting out the mess.

Shame on Leave

Scotland voting is an interesting one. Numbers voting was lower than the national average and way lower than the Indy vote.

We're they complacent or just not really interested in the EU in the way that we were led to believe.

Hard one to work out.

What about women, can they still vote?
Joking aside, there will be some rules and laws which are common sense but which might not be applying in the UK anymore. they will have to be changes to get the UK law into current times, at least on the bits it didn't need to look at that hard for the last 25 years.

Interesting times ahead, one thing is for sure, moaning about it will get us nowhere. I wanted to stay and fear that leaving is going to stick is firmly back into recession for the next 5 years. I hope I am wrong, I am no economist after all.

Feel very aggrieved by the campaign surrounding the 350million to be pumped back into the NHS turned out to be nothing other than hot air, if that were a company advertising a product or service they would have been fined heavily and probably any contracts lost after being proved they were gained illegally.

Time to knuckle down and see what happens!

I was in Germany all week with people from 15 countries in Europe, none of which wanted GB to leave.. The EU nations will be equally as concerned this morning as a lot of us are.

What facts. Nobody asked me my age when I voted. There are NO real facts on the age profile of any votes just guess work.

Oh just get real!

OK then - let's wait until we get the breakdown and I'll then tell my children that they were wrong - that in fact it was the under 30s who voted us out,

At what ages do you think people should no longer be able to vote then.

My children did not say the older generation should not vote - they just rather hoped that they'd vote with future generations in mind and maybe take on board what the current younger generations would want. And not vote for their own short-term (hoped for) benefit.
