[Politics] Brexit

[Taybha]

To be replaced by Boris, Gove, IDS?
What a very sad day for this country.
I had no idea that the majority of this country were so stupid, ignorant and racist to allow this to happen, it is going to be a disaster.
Farage lording it up this morning is making me want to puke.
The only people that think we are a great country are the British, to the rest we are a laughing stock, a small blip of an island that now holds no credibility in the world anymore, if anyone thinks we can just go waltzing into countries around the world demanding trade deals they are very much mistaken.
The referendum should never have been held, the British have proved they are far too thick to make the correct decision.

So because the vote did not go your way , everybody that voted out is a thick racist ? Have a word with yourself .

Leon Knights twitter is on fire this morning. I know he's insane and hates women, but he does make me smile sometimes.

That's because the older ones have been there ,seen it,done it. Guess what we don't like it.

Or they hold outdated prejudices and ill informed views.

Email from senior management team this morning. Strategic review starts Monday. Have been tipped off that our Dutch office has been looking at larger premises for the past month under the instruction senior directors in case of exit vote. Looks like it is a case of relocate to Holland or find a new job. Thanks a lot Brexit voters. Thanks Brexit voters!

Nothing to do with labour screwing up and allowing open border agreements with the EU then?

That's my point.

Everybody else has been screwing up left right and centre, whereas Farage has just pounded his way through.
He's been unequivocal in his one message, while the Labour party have turned first into the Tory's then the Communists.
The Conservatives have never had it so good, and yet Farage has smashed them apart too.

At the last general election he was even able to mobilised me.
I was able to ignore all the policies that were clearly the deranged ramblings of a bunch of weirdos and vote green, because I wanted some of Farage's 'one message' ideology.

I'm sure it's all arsehat bullshitery, and Farage is talking us into a place I think will have grave consequences but that still doesn't stop me from admiring his handling of the situation.

All this from a man who has repeated been told to 'do one' by the UK electorate.

Legendary politicking from the big man.

It's this kind of utter shit that lost remain the referendum.

People with immense life experience and wisdom making sure the younger generations don't repeat the mistakes of the past.

Quite patronising of the older generation, don't you think? I'm 31 and quite capable of making my own informed choices. The fact is people who will live with this choice the longest did not vote for it.

You can shove your life experience and wisdom, frankly.

I dont consider myself any kind of comedian, Parody is just active sarcasm a tool to use against the witless.

Although, as you frequently demonstrate, it can also exist as inadvertently witless yet comical self-parody.

That's terrible, I'm very sorry. People on this board seem to think that nothing will happen because of this vote, but tens if not hundreds of thousands will lose jobs. That is not something to celebrate.

I'm finding it utterly repulsive that people are basking in the glory of guaranteed job losses for their friends and family.

Why not thank them for laying the foundations of the prosperous country you live in now , for building it after ww2 out of the ashes of austerity that you couldnt even BEGIN to imagine ? Instead of whining like a 12 year old whos been told he cant stay up late ?

Good post.

If it was so bad for them why do they want to send us back to those times

Oh, grow up .

 

[BLOCK F]

For those of us not so financially astute and leaving our pensions in company ones are we vulnerable? Or would they do the same as you?

Edit - This is a serious question not sarcastic

Find out what kind of pension scheme you are in. If you are very lucky, you may be in a Defined Benefit Scheme.
If you are in a Defined Contribution Scheme, your pension will be dependent on performance in the markets.
I am certainly no pension expert and am not in a position to say what your pension managers may or may not do.
Good luck,anyway.

Patronising

 

[alfredmizen]

i feel like part of a married couple thats newly seperated and hoping for a reconciliation if only we could sort out a couple of issues !

 

[alfredmizen]

Patronising

You deserve to be patronised with ridiculously childish posts like that.

 

[carteater]

Well we're totally and utterly ****ed. well done guys hope you love the mess we are gonna be in.

 

[The Wizard]

Quite frankly the propoganda and lies told during this whole thing by both camps have truly disgusted me and shown the worse off in all kinds of people, this includes normal people some even on this thread. People voted what they believe in and whats best for them personally, which is a natural thing to happen and you have people literally blaming these voters for things that could/might happen in future.

Time will tell if this is a catastrophic day for the United Kingdom, personally I don't think it is... The scaremongering is on a different level this morning.
