UK votes for #BrExit from the EU. 52% Leave - 48% Stay.

[Brietta]

And  now Francois Hollande had joinen the fray and told Sturgeon and Scotland that they have to leave with the UK.  Mr Hollande, the French President, insisted the EU will make no advance deal with Scotland. He said: "The negotiations will be conducted with the United Kingdom, not with a part of the United Kingdom.”

And too right too!

The SNP is going through the motions, John.  They are merely preparing the ground for their next move.

Can't think what that would be, Sturgeon knows that another failed indy referendum would mean the end of her too.

It's early days and it would be nice to think the financial turmoil of the last few days is already behind us but I fear that optmism may be a little premature.

Also of note, from the BBC article:

The FTSE 250 - which contains more UK-focused companies - closed 3.2% higher on Wednesday, but still remains more than 7% below its pre-Brexit level.

Dead cat bounce!

Nearly all the major global indices are down pre Brexit other that FTSE 100  &%+((£

Sterling way down pre Brexit.  UK credit rating downgraded by S&P, Fitch and Moodys.

So, we see the latent anger of a population over years for a variety of reasons unleashed into a brexit vote...and its all the eus and immgrants fault, so laughable, and to top it all the UK has the arrogance to think it can do any deal it wants riding roughshod over wales scotland and NI...well they better think twice

Meanwhile the pupetteers and backstabbers and sold out souls are having some trouble trying to destroy corbyn and the labour party, well they better thnk twice as well


Ho hum

And Im sure admn wont mind me voicing my disgust at the blatant racism allowed to run loose on ths forum, absolutely disgusting, after all if they have a voice I should too

Oh and btw johnson wont become leader of this country, hes a flippant floosie, just like gove, only gove can beat him at scrabble , thats goves best feature, pub quiz winner

Believe whatever you like, it wasn't any worse than the remain bullshit.  People made up their own mind and voted for brexit, get over it.

How can anyone make an informed decision if they're being fed BS?  This is the reason I didn't bother voting.
This wouldn't be allowed in any other walk of life due to the risk of being sued for providing misleading information: 

"Chris Grayling, the Tory Cabinet member and prominent Brexit campaigner, has said the idea of spending millions a week on the NHS instead of the EU was only “an aspiration” – despite a slogan being written in massive letters on the side of the Vote Leave battle bus suggesting £350 million a week could be diverted from the EU to the NHS".

It seems when it comes down to political advertising parties can say what they want under the guise of 'freedom of speech'.

Its all on  camerons head imo
He called the referendum
He must have known the result was possible
Hes irresponsble imo throwng the country into turmoil

[Brietta]

Next time round they will have done their fiscal homework and they will go for it when they know the time is right.

They lost by a whisker last time round; they will retain that vote.
Added to that will be enough 'better together' voters to give them their majority.  That is her target audience for the Brussels visit, she knows fine the legal situation regarding the part of the whole being ineligible to stay in ... but doesn't at least being seen to be making the effort make for good PR.

Don't underestimate the tenacity or single mindedness of an organisation which would turn cartwheels for 'freedom' from 'English rule' without understanding or even recognising the dichotomy that is exchanging it for 'Brussels rule'.

If scotland would be fnancially worse off with brexit why shouldnt she attempt to escape it? Or do whatever she can to send out the message scotland needs reassurances,  camerons not giving ANY reassurances to ANYONE whatsoever, his blanket message is, its the new prime mnisters respnsibility!!

Shes just doing her bleeding job and people are berating her for it and posting pathetic pics

Things are starting to look better already



France last night signalled the EU could strike a deal with Britain on immigration.
In a major boost for hopes of a smooth exit for the UK, finance minister Michel Sapin said there would be no ‘red lines’ in talks over the single market.
His declaration of flexibility was backed by Finland’s deputy PM. The first signs of a crack in the EU’s united front came as stock markets rallied and fears of a post-Brexit economic slump eased.
