EU Referendum

[Blue in Munich]

Let's put it bluntly those who voted leave were over the hill, and uneducated - stats say that. How can you expect the majority of educated people to accept their guidance on the future economical situation??
Are people talking the economy down, no. Is it a complex reaction to a misguided decision based on no facts, probably yes. Do we have any confidence in the stuff being said by the leavers - probably not.
I don't ask my mechanic to check my personal health ...

How dreadfully unfortunate for all the educated yoof, who didn't realise that a post on Facebook or Twitter didn't count, that the uneducated old codgers realised that you had to get off your backside and go to the ballot box.

I'd argue all this FTSE 100. 250, 3000 or whatever is actually not that relevant. Yes it reflects the markets initial reaction to the decision, but the most financial damage (or benefits I suppose if I am being charitable) will be done in the long term IMHO, not over the first couple of weeks.

That's fair comment but some here have been saying the markets have collapsed and the FTSE 250 is the one to watch as its plummeted but it's not the case.

The ballot box is sooooooooo yesterday.
The old codgers have a postal vote nowadays, saves the bother of getting a bus to the polling station

 

[SocketRocket]

No, just like you, I haven't a clue

I told you what has happened. If you dont know then don't suggest the BOE are flooding money into the markets

I guess you include yourself in that comment Mr Doom.

It does.
No point in wasting energy.

Where did I suggest?
I just said 'we have no idea'.

Does that mean that those that couldn't be bothered to vote were just idle and thick.

OMG!!! Next you'll be telling me that £350 million will probably not be going to the NHS every week!

Only 35% of the 18 to 25 year olds voted 'v' 81% of the over 65's. Maybe the over 65's care more about the UK than the youngsters.

No .. Why would I?

jeez, what does it take to get put on the ignore list by leavers nowadays. Tough audience.

Who said that

What are we all worrying about?
There are so many phenomonal intellects, who know absolutely everything there is to know, on this forum alone.
It's just amazing how, despite diametrically opposing views, nobody is ever wrong!!
The leavers, me included, are just racist little Englanders who have ruined everything for the younger generations and the remainers have just been, well, robbed by us idiots, despite it being a democratic vote.
So many bad losers and also the occasional bad winner!

It's amazing how many times that little line is trotted out yet it's just another generalisation

I must certainly don't think everyone who voted leave is a racist little Englander - I know there are certainly racist little Englanders who voted to leave but certainly not judging everyone who voted to leave the same way and not really it seen on here bar the odd person
