There appear to be positive surprises on both sides. Could it be that the divide between innies and outies is just more marked than predicted?

It's a done deal now, but the tv programmes are clearly under instruction to avoid losing their audience too early. 'It's too early to say!'

Spare a thought for those poor bookies!!!

Well I guess there's just one real question now then.

Canada or New Zealand?

Example?

I think the point you're trying to make is that you've been asked to make a decision and you can't because you want absolute certainty before you do. That's a cop out. I imagine you're an accountant.

No-one knows what Europe actually does

No-one can tell a direct fact

Both sides take half an argument and round it to their own gain.

Most debate points have 2 sides, not once on the TV, radio or on here have I heard 1 person put a coherent argument together balancing what are believed to be the facts.
It proves one thing over all else, humanity is cloud9 useless.

To make points:

I was pointed to listen to an item on iPlayer I listened.

The person who pointed it at me quotes reteric from remain, yet same iPlayer cast said the contrary to what was said. Amazing.

There are some very self righteous posts in this thread that make me sick. The weight behind beliefs for both sides is, pathetic. The reason? It's simple NO ONE KNOWS! it's never happened so you can't say what will happen to anything fiscal,migration related or anything else. You're all getting irate over your own understanding of exaggerated fact or fantasy in some cases.


Why are you always so angry?


Angry? Frustrated.

These are the people that voted for cuts. This was a protest vote against those cuts, and now they've just made it worse for themselves. You couldn't make it up. God help us.

England has spoken, even with the scots and the irish trying desperately to scupper the result. Tony Blair, David Cameron, George Osborne, Nicola Sturgeon, Bonnie prince Charlie, pearly kings and queens of east london, John Major, Gordon Brown, Jeremy Corbyn, Tim Farron..........your boys took one hell of a beating laugh.....

Well I've never felt so bad considering I've just won £1,000... From a quick review of West Midland areas, it looks like the vote was pretty conclusive. I'm looking at my daughter wondering what sort of world we're moving into frown

In the coupe.
How it could effect Gill and I is the holiday home uk based clients. With the pound low they will hold off on improvements. Shame as it was just starting to recover from the last low.
Expat pensioners whose pensions are uk based will/are taking a loss.

The massive changes in the future may just evolve and hopefully it's good for everyone.

With the euro being as it is compared to the pound I may just get that Aston Martin sooner than before.
But Europe may decide to ban the registering of them now.

I wish you all good luck over there and let's hope for peace and a bright future for us and our children.

A sad day when our future generation feels like this and Im here to protect them and do what I can until they are old enough to vote themselves.........or leave the UK


Aye, didn't receive a response to this one I see................lets see what tosh you can make up now wink


No need to make up tosh, Clintos - but I worry about what you teach your children. Or did they come by these fears some other way?

Because I'm really racking my brain to think of one instance that's made the news of either shooting on the beach, stabbed on the beach, or shot out of the sky in Spain.

You might also consider letting them learn statistics, and possibly a side order of risk analysis and comparative risk - they've got perhaps fifty thousand times the chance of dying of smoking related diseases than they have of any of the things you listed.


You totally missed my point intentionally so I will not explain. You also missed the reason 52% of the population and that includes Scotland too why we voted to leave the EU. My work here is done, have a happy life and make the most of being free again. It will be hard for a while, especially when we aren't officially out the EU for another 2 years, but hopefully we can build a Great Britain' again.

Take care All

Well said Joe, we now have to look forward, think positive and make sure the next government we vote in is the best for Britain.

Let's hope the rest of Europe stays together, otherwise the continent that has warred with itself for centuries and started the two biggest wars the world has seen - could see its offspring in uniform again and dying in foreign fields.

Before the 2 years are up the EU will experience more Countries inhabitants also demanding the choice to choose out or in. It really is not just a British issue.

Perhaps because of this the EU will eat a little bit lot of humble pie, admit that their is a limit to how close partners can lie together in bed without starting to hate each other, realign itself to the original idea of an EEC (European Economic Community to those youngsters that didnt exist in 1975) and maybe... just maybe... recreate a workable system.

Their will most likely be another referendum before the 2 years exit schedule is up. The UK's actions have been a positive step forward, for the world and not just Europe, that needed to have happened. And if their is no 2nd referendum then it is going to be no great loss anyway.

If, by "freedom" you mean locking the doors on bunker UK it's a funny sort of freedom. It's only one step up from those loonies in the US who take over a ranch and declare it independent. Except nearly half the people in the ranch didn't want to be locked in the ranch. I feel my freedom has been taken away.

Absolutely. But don't tell me I have "freedom"

The irony is that guys who work for me influenced in a real and positive way the regulations in Europe. Now we won't be able to. We'll continue to have to meet them whilst our European competitors influence the regs to be easier for them and harder for us (exactly as the Yanks and the Chinese already do). And that's somehow "regaining control". It would be funny if it wasn't so depressing. I'm fine - none of this will impact me much. We'll have to spend more money on meeting regulations, it will be harder to get the skills we need, and we'll have less influence on things but I'll be busier because I'll be "free" and "in control" in my part of this little island.
