Wriggling Snake Jun 2016 7:24am, 24 Jun 2016 12,190 posts	0 Wriggling Snake Indeed winded. Blaming others. It's a mess, of Cameron's making. Only now will we start finding out the cost of leaving. TMW there will be loads of punch ups. A near 50-50 vote ensures that. Just like North of the border. As a country we'll spend the next decade looking op own arses instead of looking forward and sorting out what's best for the future. Scotland will leave, but they will take ages as first of all we'll need to look at the result of all this. Funnily enough one of the first things I heard was Farage say 'his is a victory for "decent" people', second a Brexiter saying, if people think this is the end of immigration, of course it is not. The country has been had, an awful campaign, an awful democracy, a fuck up.

AndyI Jun 2016 7:31am, 24 Jun 2016 25 posts	0 AndyI I'm sure there are good reasons for leaving the EU which don't just boil down to 'Brits are better than foreigners', but the Leave campaign started out with the votes of 100% of the bigots and morons, and just needed a sprinkling of IQ to get it through (we have a lot of bigots and morons). Voila! Welcome to the redneck Britain. Yes, I'm bitter and angry. I have a lot of friends who have been painted as some kind of disease afflicting Blighty, and they don't deserve this. Sick.
Doctor K Jun 2016 7:35am, 24 Jun 2016 3,804 posts	0 Doctor K Amazing really. An anti-establishment vote. Remember in the wake of the impending financial turmoil someone will be making money out of it all ! There is an upside though, we might see the back of Osborne. The Labour party will blame Corbyn of course -but they will be wrong -the Blairites cannot accept Blair has gone and secondly have ignored their core vote for too long. I'd like to thank everyone who took part in the process -hope you do so in the next election too.
Fellrunning Jun 2016 7:37am, 24 Jun 2016 1,684 posts	0 Fellrunning Well people have voted. Now we'll see. Personally I think Cameron is between a rock and a hard place. His instinct would probably to resign as he must realise he'll end up as a Johnson/UKIP glove puppet. However I suspect he realises that would trigger a huge constitutional crisis. So he'll stay at least for a bit to try to sort it all out. As for the rest of us. Well its something we'll have to cope with. I suspect the country will look very different in a decade or so. For the better? who knows...
LazyDaisy Jun 2016 7:38am, 24 Jun 2016 14,673 posts	0 LazyDaisy Jeremy Corbyn and his crew need to reflect very carefully on their role in this disaster. We've been shafted by the Leave votes largely in what were Labour areas. They've now gone to UKIP (or however they will rebrand themselves now) - that's at least in part the consequence of his lazy, half-arsed leadership.
