Using the term "Sore losers" sums it all up really. This isn't a ****ing game. If you voted leave, why are you denying the damage you've done to our country? In the short term at least the evidence is clear, why are you not concerned about the long term? There is little to nothing to celebrate. I hear all this bootstraps nonsense from leavers, is this the best you can come out with? You've voted for something which has plummeted the country into turmoil, so now we must roll our sleeves up or whatever. Well done....

Where have you been hiding?So few posts,so much knowledge,you must have degrees in absolutely everything,oh aren't you so full of it.Bore off

When the dust settles England will remain English and not a European part state....at what cost is at debate but it will cost....
 


At 19,during my brief time at Southwark college I could not give two hoots about politics, but then I did not have a tutor telling me how young people like me would suffer if we left the EU.

Young minds get poisoned by what they hear too...just saying!

Ok, you do realise that the horse has bolted and the stable door is shut, but seeing as you are determined to bore me into a response..............

http://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/665784/EU-referendum-farmers-poll-Brexit

Farmers Weekly poll backed Brexit

Polls carried out by Farmers Weekly have consistently shown strong farmer support for the “leave” campaign. In April, an exclusive Farmers Weekly poll of 577 farmers found 58% said they wanted to leave, while just 31% said they wanted the UK to remain in the trade bloc.

Delighted Derbyshire farmer Michael Seals of the Farmers for Britain campaign, which lobbied for the UK to leave the EU, said: “The country has voted for change – and the farming industry has clearly indicated it wants change.

“We must now all work together, government and industry representatives, to start with a blank sheet of paper to find a new and better way of supporting this industry to enable it to go forward.”

The Country Land & Business Association (CLA), which represents 33,000 landowners in England and Wales, said a Brexit would “bring challenges, but also significant opportunities”.

CLA president Ross Murray said the organisation would work with politicians to address “urgent decisions” to secure the future of the rural economy.

Really can not be bothered to search out more........you have a go.

“If there’s one group that has really gained from Europe, it’s farmers,” said Dr Rickard, an independent economist to the farming and food industries.

Must admit I don't think I voted in any election until I was 30. Always thought my vote would not make any difference. Maybe that was in the mindset of some of these

Maybe. I studied politics so it always seemed really important to me but you might be right. It does seem a little illogical as all votes count the same and if everyone had that view then it wouldn't be much of an election!

Please explain why you believe out voters, voted for farmers, as all farmers are now set to loose their grant from the EU Agricultural policy

I.m also surprised you didn't include Turkeys voting for Christmas

I WOULDN'T BOTHER WORRYING YOURSELF??? ,WE'RE LEAVING THE EU:) and your petty point scoring wont change it :wink:

Then speak to IDS about it.
So many posts on here so I do not know if it was ever mentioned.
Right at the start of the referendum results programme IDS said that council estates have voted in their droves.
My jaw dropped, he clearly meant that we were relying on the feral, thick, uneducated racists that inhabit council estates to vote leave.
IDS proved he was a nasty piece of work when it came to benefits for the poor and unemployed, his reasons for resigning were pure crap, then the people he was trying to shaft a few months earlier then voted for something he was a big part of, how stupid can you get.
It takes some doing but IDS is a very very nasty piece of work.
Yes, I heard him say that too.

Completely agree. All I've seen is concern from remain supporters. Leave on the other hand seem to arrogantly believe that because 52% voted for their view, there's nothing to worry about and everything will just fall into place. Sadly, I think they are in for a wake up call.

maybe after we have activated article 50 and left the EU properly no free movement and a period of higher prices ........ 15 million remainers are a minority...they can try to get us back in perhaps the EU will have fallen by then or perhaps we will be doing ok....Albion might even be in the Premier.


Do you think the PL will be worth being in without the world class players?

Serious question.

Do you think the money will be there?

Let's face it this result has come as a shock to many on here, which is why the insults and snarling and bitter posts/threads are appearing.
The endless polls which gleefully showed the IN camp well in front, but just representing the bubble that is Brighton along the South coast.
The project fear has reared its head again barely 24 hours after the UK voted OUT.

to many plums on here living in a fish bowl and have no idea how other parts of the country have to deal with multicultural Britain

Same here, I was more interested in getting drunk at the weekends and having a good time. Didn't care a stuff for politics.

Some rules can be bent others broken we will win and lose......all it takes is Greece to collapse completely or an major event or maybe a EU member asking for a referendum....

I would not be so sure. Negotiations will be hard and the deal on the table will include some form of cash payment into the E.U., which may well be close to the net contribution previously made, free movement of workers, so Poles can still come here if they have a job, and that many of our standards and legislation are in line with E.U. policy, so still dictated to by Brussels.
At that point Referendum 2 will be demanded as little of what was promised is on offer, and we are likely to vote remain.
In the meantime, no business looking to set up in Europe is going to consider the U.K. Some businesses already here may decide to relocate to avoid a potential stranding, and certainly those with multiple offices across E.U. will not be increasing UK branch numbers. E.U. offices in the U.K. will be relocated, and we all look like ****wits to the rest of the world because half of us couldn't work out that this was going to happen.

I'm watching all this with mild amusement, grabbing a popcorn and all that, but people in Germany are rather pissed off...

Oh Crap!

GB wanted in...it BEGGED to become a member. The EU bend backwards to make allowances for all possible and impossible special wishes from London.
The whole financial market is profiting from the EU, the whole economy profits from the common market.
Not one treaty was subscribed without GB actively formulating it and agreeing to it.

To paint poor 'ol GB now as a hapless victim of the mean dictatorial EU is nothing but crap and lies....but then, Brexiters love their crap, don't they!

... and that's one of the mildest quotations from a German friend. :)
 


Just spoke to my younger cousin who goes to Newcastle Uni.
He has been out and about in Sunderland today and the general consensus is that it is a choice between death by the conservatives, death by the EU, death by Ukip. We are holding the Labour party as our hostage until they do what they are supposed to do.
