EU Referendum

[MarkE]

God, you people are so bitter. We've had a democratic vote as it should be. Now back our great country to succeed and flourish and stop putting ourselves down. As for Scotland, Sturgeon has already made it clear she see's their future within the eu.

 

[Hacker Khan]

If leaving was such an obvious cock up then all the politicians from all parties would have been in the stay camp. The fact that they wasn't should bring comfort to some.
Look forward not backwards

But that is assuming that all politicians are in it for the good of the country, and not their naked personal political ambition.

I agree, it may have been 90-95% leave instead of the small but significant margin.

said slightly tongue in cheek...only slightly

And vice versa. All crooks imo

This...politicians nowadays are insulated from the real world impact of this. They are professional opportunists, in the main, Corbyn being a throwback. Gove & Johnson are political opportunists who would sell their granny to get on.

Do you know why it's called Great Britain ?

I agree to an extent but how can a politician ride his own agenda if it goes tits up. They must have self belief that it could work or they'll end up with egg on their face and won't achieve anything

The people have spoken.

I for one am looking forward to

The exit from the EU process.

The Scotland campaign for independence and joining the EU.

Northern Ireland wanting to join the EU alla Sein Fein.

The campaign for a new Prime minister

The campaign for a new Labour leader.

UKIPs future.

countrys within the EU looking at how The UK fare.

There is enough there to keep the golf monthly devotees happy for a weekend

 

[hovis]

I still don't understand why the scotts have been banging on about independence and then vote to stay in the Eu?????

I agree buddy. Working in the public sector I'm fed up with seeing heart attack victims waiting 20 minutes for a paramedic because they haven't got the funding for more feet on the ground. Yet india get 270 million in aid because the eu said so

 

[Old Skier]

There should be an IQ test as a proviso to vote. May have been different then

Are you suggesting that if you voted leave you are if low IQ. Shows the level that some of the remain have supporters have lowered themselves to or are you claiming a smiley face.

Its democracy, people might not like it but that's the system . For those that don't agree with it start a campaign to change it, might have a referendum on it. Again.

 

[freddielong]

What the country needs now is a very strong government and leader, I like David Cameron but given his campaigning to remain he cannot be the right person to now negotiate with Europe.

But surely the 2 aren't linked? Public sector cuts are George osbourne's agenda, driven by the Tory need to balance the books their way. The other is the EU/our requirement to fight worldwide poverty, they don't come from the same pot. Just like the £350million quid a week we save won't be spent on the nhs or fire brigade etc. It will be wasted elsewhere.

Part of me is disappointed, part of me realises we just need to accept this and get on with it.

But... It won't be the 'great' Britain that was voted for..it will just be little England

Nope I'm standing by the former

 

[Doon frae Troon]

My daughter says she might have to consider moving her business from Scotland to Ireland, she was just starting to build up good links in Europe.
I wonder if this is the road others will follow, especially Northern Irish.

My point is the government have forced the hand of the public. I didn't want to leave but voted leave because (imo) the government was looking outwards instead of inward. They promised things they didn't deliver.

 

[MegaSteve]

I'd far sooner that Osborne had fallen on his proverbial sword rather than Cameron...

Still plenty of time for him to do so though...

BJ getting a warm reception from Londoners this morning... Not!

 

[Crazyface]

To be honest on today of all days I am not feeling that ashamed but I feel there are plenty of others that should be. But hey ho.

Today is the day when we should roll up out sleeves and say to the world,
This is how democracy works, we all vote and then crack on. We can now unite and rebuild out national pride, and no I don't mean cut ourselves off, I mean show the world we are a great country of hard working and honest people who are easy to deal with. We do not want to turn into jack booted skins heads, that is NOT who we are. We need everyone to do this. Lift your heads up and be proud of your country.
