[Politics] Brexit

[The Maharajah of Sydney]

Leave was 9/2 with the bookies yesterday morning.

Got out to as high as 16-1

 

[Prince Monolulu]

I was told if Brexit won the world was going to end. Seems to be still going.

 

[El Presidente]

They never close, except over the weekend.
FX markets are permanently open from Sunday night to Friday night (UK timezone)

So I've just discovered!

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

Hopefully Dodgy Dave will be sacked by the weekend

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.

Blimey.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

So the side supported by Katie Hopkins, Boris and Farage win. Thank you to all the pensioners who have ****ed my future.

Did you have an ambition of becoming a MEP?

 

[fat old seagull]

Mine is dandy thanks and might even be worth more today.

I'm inquisitive in wondering how at 7.56 am this very morning, you can ascertain what the hell will happen to your pension pot!
My financial advisor has just got off the phone to me saying everything's up in the air for a while. Which pizzes me off as only last week he was assuring me that leaving would be okay. Anyway lucky you

 

[Steve in Japan]

Cameron speaking. Sound like he's leaving.

 

[vegster]

Dave going by the sound of it...

 

[looney]

Absolutely.
I really honestly admire the odious, 2-faced, lying, conniving, little prick.

Over the last 2 or 3 years he has been a brilliant politician.
He's maneuvered the 2 main political parties, and 52% of the nation round to his way of thinking.

Living in a bluest of blue West Sussex village I have grown up thinking it was impossible to influence the political world.
Yet Farage has done exactly that, one voice, one message, one result.

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

 

[gripper stebson]

Gone.

Cheerio, cheerio, cheerio.

Hopefully he goes within the hour.

He's gone.
Now who will take over ?

Boris??

Wow .... we are a sore loser aren't we !

 

[looney]

I
Too many people think that everything will magically be put right just like that. We may have " taken back our independence " but we have lost our heart and soul.

This has got be an entry in Drama Queen of the year post.

I am well aware of pension planning, Beo, but these days, for many people and with increasing longevity, the advice to 'lifestyle' one's investments in such a way is perhaps not quite so obvious as it used to be. Many more individuals are in drawdown now than there used to be and are sometimes advised to keep more of their investments in stocks than was the case in the past.
Yes, there will be a large market reaction today,as was to be expected with such a vote but a 5% increase from today's closing price by the year end won't float my boat.
Luckily, I have been increasing my cash position lately and will be looking to enter the markets again as and when.
Not a happy bunny though.

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

 

[Collingburnian]

There are some very sore losers on here. Those who chose to vote "OUT" are deemed stupid by the "STAY IN" side. Many believe that those who opted to stay are stupid. Accept it - it's called democracy. I look forward to the return of British pounds and ounces, pints, gallons and acres instead rather than European grams, litres and hectares.

Pigs are rejoicing

Bloody Hell! If we're left with a choice of Boris, Gove or IDS we are all Losers surely. Didn't like Dodgy Dave, but he's streets ahead of that bunch.

Never really rated Gove before but I thought he came across far better than Cameron in this campaign. The next leader will be May anyway.
