How this did not require a supermajority is beyond me. So sorry BritGAF
Ok, I don't know the nuances of it all, but surely by voting in the referendum you accept the vote, as it sounds like you are saying...we want to have a vote but if we don't like the result we are going to take our ball and leave....
If you feel like that, sturgeon should of said Scotland won't vote as we don't accept the result...but you voted
This is devastating for you guys in the UK, and everyone in EU.
I feel for you guys, I'm truly sorry. That said, i'm hoping EU will utterly fuck you up economically just to let everyone else know that leaving is a terrible idea and will kill your country.
I hope Scotland and Northern Ireland will break out from the GB and this day will be remembered in history as a day the Great Britain was destroyed.
Yep, that's numbers alright, 52 is bigger than 48. Either way, it's a major problem that needs to be addressed when half the country is at war with the other half, this Government has caused such a major rift and divide that in a sense, Britain needs chaos, things need to be rough so SOMEONE will actually start to get shit together.Democracy fucking sucks. 52% having that big of an impact on 48%.
I struggle to have any sympathy for one of the main players in the 2008 crash.....trying to make people feel sorry for banks is a sure way to make them feel they were right
I am working 12am to 7am because of BREXIT(I work for a financial company in new york) People are freaking out
From an unknown dealer morning commentary: After Brexit we will be looking at Grexit, Departugal, Italeave, Czechout, Oustria, Finish, Slovakout, Latervia, Byegium
Fuck off. 48% of Brits DIDN'T want this, should we be punished too?
It is this overconfidence that scares me. Anyone stopped and asked themselves, despite this being the worst four weeks of Trump's campaign, he's only down by 5-6 points? He could win and for the same reasons Leave won.
Any chance this leads to a global recession like 2008?
We need a new name for the United Kingdom
A Kingdom
The Kingdom
Kingdom Come

UK's time in the EU in a nutshell.We want to have a vote but if we don't like the result we are going to take our ball and leave....
but the palm trees
muh immersion
Reports say the pound's value may not recover for a long time. I imagine it'll hit worse once trading opens.
Will we be seeing inflation, unemployment etc.?
That's how it works
That's how democracy works
Try reading the post I was responding too. The poster was hoping the EU fuck the UK over economically to 'teach us a lesson'.I don't get reactions like this, if it went the other way by the same percentage you'd be happy?
Hypocritical comes to mind.
Britain did what Greecedont.
👏👏👏
I bet the Portuguese and Spanish are watching with baited breath.
Oh, I'm aware. There's definitely no shortage of stupid people that get to vote.If you think being an American insulates you from this outcome, you're very wrong. The financial impact will be felt by every market.
So big time to buy pounds?
Watch the american politics take this and spin it to their own political agenda.
well, on the other flipside of that coin... the EU have been huge dicks to the smaller countries and reamed Greece real hard.
How long would it take Northern Ireland and Scotland to get the ball rolling on leaving the UK if they decide to go that route?

I don't mean to single you out personally, but rather to point out that this is a perfect example of an economically ignorant argument that I'm sure a large number of Leave voters believed - they never got further than "stick it to the banks/the City".
The financial services industry - like it or loathe it - is responsible for a huge segment of Britain's GDP. When it gets hit hard, we all get hit hard. There are untold ripple effects coming out of this.
I'm so worried for the financial services industry in Scotland now - it employs tens of thousands, directly as a result of London being a financial centre.

the UK is a big country that can afford to grand stand and leave
The EU is half responsible for this mess for over reaching towards other countries.
Look at Iceland, they are doing fine now while Greece got fucked
Gold is always seen as a safe haven when everything goes to shit.
Very sad about this. The job of keeping the UK intact just got a whole lot harder. Never mind, possibly, the EU itself. Can't believe it

Now since this isn't legally binding, can Cameron just say fuckit and not go ahead with the exit?

I hope this scares the shit out of Americans looking at their polling averages and smugly declaring that Trump has 0 chance in November.
Angry nationalists can ruin it for everyone if they're pissed off enough and you're too complacent to even vote.
As the results unfolded were there any metrics that could help predict whether an area was likely to vote leave or remain? Weve taken six key measures for each voting area and mapped them against the results.
With the over two-thirds of the counting areas reporting a result the strongest predictor of how an area would vote is the education level of the residents. So far the results indicate that greater the proportion of residents with a higher education, the more likely a local authority was to vote remain.
It will be the United Kingdom of England, Wales, and Northern Ireland soon. Scotland ain't gonna take this one lying down.
