we can look forward to a lot more of the shouty little weasel in the future.

Why? What will be the point of UKIP after this referendum?

They have just 1 MP in Parliament.

Farage is just terrible.. @boardinbob of the 30 or so people I've spoken to about this vote, only one of them, my missus, was a remain.

I don't get it. Who are these mass leave voters? Admittedly they're not up here in Scotland but I work with and socialised with people all over the UK and I never once got a sense of this. It was 90%+ remain

Much the same was asked when the Tories won the election

This is a direct result of the sneering, browbeating, judgemental and condescending attitude taken for too long by many (but not all) on the political 'left'. If every time people speak their mind they get called racist or stupid, they simply shut up in public and vote what they feel in private -the shy Tory effect became the shy Brexit effect.

more attention seaking, lots of gloating, more insufferable shite like the drivel Farage just deliverd to his - well to be blunt - bit racist mates

Remember all the people who believe whatever they are spoon fed.

What were they spoon fed? The Conservative Party, the Labour Party, the LibDems, the Greens, the SNP, all told them to vote to remain.

What were they spoon fed?

We are not an independant nation
We are not in control
We are not able to do anything
Immigration is out of control
Immigration is bad
Immigration is taking your job
The UK will be awesome after
The EU will beg us to do the deal we want
350 Million Pounds/Week
etc.
etc.

Jesus Christ! 😯 , just woke up so I thought I'd have a quick look to see how much of a beating remain is handing out to the brexiteers and I'm shocked, wtf is going on?. Sod this......I'm going to back to bed and hopefully by the morning it will reveal itself to be merely a nightmare and we are still in the EU.

I see another Scottish referendum on independance in the coming future, bring it on!

Pound sinks to 1985 levels
Posted at
13:15
The pound continues to fall steeply – it is at $1.34, which is around the lows of 1985.

The FTSE 100 futures is down nearly 8% - we will have to wait for the index to open later to get the actual number.

The Nikkei market in Tokyo is down over 6%.

Well the world loves the result

Yes he will still be attention-seeking after the referendum, but the reality is that he won't be very important.

What's he going to do with one MP? What compelling reason will people have to vote UKIP which they didn't have last year?

Very true but at most opportunitioes to engage the response is Don't believe the experts, don't listen to the establishment (well apart from our lot) and in many ways fingers in ears LaLaLa despite having most of the claims and facts being dismissed.

When you talk to people who still use immigration as a problem despite all the arguments and facts not supporting them well sometimes you have to wonder.

Also anyone who used this vote as an opportunity to strike a protest at the government is a *

54% Leave England
62% Stay Scotland

Ironic that the very people who wanted Scotland to stay in the UK, have just voted for them to go independent.

800k in it, Several London left to declare. It's still going to be close but unfortunately heading for making the UK a basket case for a while to come. Expect a lot of cash to leave the UK when the markets open

This+1

People have different opinions, some times its fact based and sometimes it something that they just feel is right and fits with their moral or ethical view of life, there no need to call them idiots or worse because of that.

I still think it will go to remain anyway or a general election will be called and none of the main political parties will back initiating Charter 50, only UKIP who would never gain a majority in a general election.

What a terrible terrible mess we're in.

I went to sleep quite positive and woken up in a shit storm. Wales voting to leave is beyond stupid.

There's still hope, some big cities left to go, but I fear dark days and years ahead.

Britain is on course to **** itself into a massive recession before the last one has really ended because a couple of utter ****s told us it was okay to blame others for our own shortfalls.

With the £ at 1983 levels and about to get ****ed into history along with the FTSE when the markets open - perhaps the Leave campaign can explain how it's all just scare mongering?

At least Scotland will now get the independence it had stolen from it the last time CMD gambled with our future for his gain - bad enough they didn't fulfill ANY of thier pre-independence promises, now they're being dragged out of the EU against their will.

I knew I should have stocked up on Euros.

This is going to change so much tho. Could this be the first domino falling in the dearth of the EU experiment? I wonder how long till people realise Emperor Farage is bollock naked.

More than likely imo that this will unleash anti-EU feelings across Europe (one of the principle reasons I supported Leave)

There's going to be some very worried people in Brussels today.

So...as it stands.

1. We are going to leave the EU.
2. Certain politicians/people are going to be insufferable
3. The £ is toast for now
4. I am going to be knackered all day and am down a tenner.
5. We're all going to live with Jamba's missus.

No apparently not, and a very close vote might allow for CMD to weasel a "new deal with EU but remain" but... It wouldn't be very democratic and he'd lose his job (if he hasn't already) - I shudder to think it, but Bojo might be remains only hope - his early position was to use a leave vote to renegotiate - but I'd bet he'll use it to ride into No10 for a few years.

Looking at the Grauniad's rather excellent graphic

it seems that the country has been largely f***ed by Yorkshire.

This has happened because our leaders have failed to address the concerns and anxiety people have about immigration.
Theres been no action in the last twenty years and no narrative to support it throughout this referendum campaign, not even recognition of it as a real issue for lots of people.

2. Certain politicians/people are going to be insufferable
3. The £ is toast for now

and quite how do you get the pound up? How do you increase confidence in the UK economy?

CPI

1 Food & non-alcoholic beverages 11.0 High 23
2 Alcohol & tobacco 4.3 Medium 4
3 Clothing & footwear 7.0 Medium 11
4 Housing & household services 12.8 Medium 4
5 Furniture & household goods 5.9 Medium 10
6 Health 2.5 Low 3
7 Transport 14.9 Medium 6
8 Communication 3.1 High 2
9 Recreation & culture 14.7 High 17
10 Education 2.6 High 1
11 Restaurants & hotels 12.1 Low 8
12 Miscellaneous goods & services 9.1 High 11

Which ones go up and down with a pound in the gutter?

@ernie_lynch

Like it or not, our economic health rests on the shoulders of 'the city' what happens their reflects in the real world - in the global economy good news is good, bad news is bad, but the unknown is far worse - the crash we'll see today isn't just because we're leaving the EU, it's mostly because no one knows what's going to happen - so all the people with money, and the hedge funds, and the investment banks and everyone else will abandon us almost immediately for safe havens (gold usually) the shock usually comes with a back-wash tomorrow or Monday will be the worst - Daves speech at 8am will set the tone.

We need to carefully manage things now to try to avoid disaster and a depression, a snap general election would leave us in chaos and effectively leaderless - anyone calling for an election today is killing us for the sake of themselves.
