worried?? are you insane
this is an opportunity for investments in finance, stocks & shares, study the market and take the opportunity to invest as shares & prices plummet
obviously risk is involved but no one makes good earnings without an involvement of risk |

Most leavers on here are very confident with their vote pal, even if they are secretly uncertain then it's too early for them to admit it.
Best I've had is a few being piss irritated over the farce of organising leaving and new trade deals - then finding out we only have 3 negotiators. |

Gezzus...another one.
I wish you could set forum filters so that Brexit threads won't show up.
I know I don't have to click on it but half the forums are about Brexit... |

NO. the racist arseholes should be delt with by the police, not used by the whinging infantile elements with no understanding of democracy wanting a re run. Next. |

The media is half the problem with everything these days, I'm not worried, it was bad back in the 80s and we pulled back from that, let's not worry ourselves about it too much and enjoy life, it's over too soon

If you have watched the stock market over the last few months it is in no worse a position than at anytime over those months. Pound is down yes.. But there was bound to be an adjustment period. |

No second thoughts here.
There was racism before and there will, unfortunately, be some for many years to come.
Think positively. There is no reason for one of the last posts of racists to exist any more. UKIP. |

Happy with my vote!
The racism is deplorable but being blown out of proportion by the media, look at the actual figures.
The pound falling makes it easier to export.
As for the markets? The same people are making money out of them as always. |

No , just having second thoughts on the perceived intelligence of some of the remain voters who can't seem to figure out that someone might dare to have a different opinion to them.
Make your vote and stick to your convictions , have a backbone for christs sake.
Non , je ne regrette rien. |

"Nope. More sure than ever.
Will any Remainer admit they got it wrong yet?"
Doubt it... not from the way they keep thinking we doubt our decision and saying the shares have plummeted ( which they haven't. ..not much has change on the shares market in the past 4 months), the pound has dropped.. no one doubted that...but it's much higher than the stayers expected it to be and it'll raise soon... (remember this now sets a great level for investors  )
It's still stronger than the magnificent Euro and dollar omg how is that possible with this terrible catastrophe that's caused our country to fall into the depths of recession...we'll all be running around bear foot soon and living in caves...  |

not in the slightest
why do people expect everything to be sorted over night? the EU rules themselves work on the basis of an exit taking 2 years
surely it is better to take time and get it right
and hey - why not keep the EU waiting, they can't do anything about it! |

You realise this was only a advisory referendum on behalf of the public to the government. If the government deems it is impractical not not financially viable and in the best interest of the nation they can overrule it.
Of course I doubt this would happen. It was a close 50/50 split so a lot of people would label the government as undemocratic an nobody wants that. |

I was only marginally remain, but before the result i didnt really mind the idea of leaving. Ideologically i was leave minded i just didnt think the figures stacked up.
But i have to admit, when the results came in i felt sick to my stomach, so my opinion has definitely shifted |

The people I've come across who are wondering what have I done have been second/third generation immigrants who voted to protect the British values they've adopted and for a better future for their children.
To then face hostile racism has been a shock.
I think it's in all our interest to work and pull together and get through this. It's bad enough people arguing from different camps but it will not be pretty if the people who voted out are then turned on because of the colour of their skin, and you don't need a crystal ball for that! |

Actually expected the pound to fall further than it has...
Virgin....ignore that! British aerospace will also stay the same ( they closed the ship yards before the referendum )
Open rascism on the streets is totally unacceptable but is probably no worse than usual unfortunatley, just reported as it makes a relevant hype story...
The pound will recover but it will take a year or so or when this will actually take effect 2019 most likely
Its been good to disrupt the status quo, causing labour to possibly reform and the same for the tories, farage can go and do one now too, it has highlighted feeling with the people in europe too....already the EU is thinking of giving more power back to the countries to stop a mass exit.
MOST IMPORTANTLY WE WILL STOP USING HUMANS AS A CHEAP TRADE COMMODITY to make others richer....modern day slavery disguised as free movement some say....however i voted remain lol

What I don't understand is why has it got to be 'us against you'
Why has the country slip into two half's both slinging mud at each other
I voted in but I don't feel I got it wrong, I just feel I voiced my opinion and my opinion wasn't in the majority but that does not mean my opinion was wrong
So now, regardless of if we voted in or out we are out so surely the best thing to do is stop bickering and pull together as a country, after all we are still one as a nation, well supposedly anyway  |

Why would they have second thoughts?
£350 million a week just about to go in to the NHS
Unfettered access to the single market without have to pay a penny and without having to allow free movement of people.
No breakup of the Union because we just not allow Scotland to have their Decocratic choice as we had ours.
The mainstay of the Leave argument remains sound.....  |

I would think there are people on both sides of the argument who feels a mistake was made.
Mrs P voted remain and she is absolutely disgusted at the attitude of a lot of remainers and doesn't want to be associated with them at all.
The vile remarks coming from them and the hatred spouted is absolutely astounding.
But given the lead faces in the remain campaign I can't say I'm too surprised. |

The only thing I was right about was that we'd still be arguing about the referendum into the following week.
It's split the country.
There's no escaping from that - lies, smears, perversion of politics, the fall of the government...
Well done all. |

"

3,500,000 million UK jobs linked to the single market and our exports amounting to £227 billion to the EU and the taxes on that production amount to around £40 billion. Leaving the EU would put at risk the UK access to the single market and any potential access would require the payment of a premium (which we do now), accept free movement of people (which we do now) but have no representation within the EU. You would have to be insane to want the UK out of the single marjket as well as the EU and so the points about cost saving and immigration are completely irrelevant.

Are you actually aware of the consequences of such flippant disregard for a huge part of the economy? Do you know what £40 billion worth of taxes can do and what 3,500,000 unemployed would look like?
Please don't give me the UKIP simple politics for simple people line that "they can just trade with someone else."
This is real stuff that will impact this country for at least two generations, maybe more. |

the world is a much larger place than the declining EU market
Are you actually aware of the consequences of such flippant disregard for a huge part of the economy? Do you know what £40 billion worth of taxes can do and what 3,500,000 unemployed would look like?
Please don't give me the UKIP simple politics for simple people line that "they can just trade with someone else."
This is real stuff that will impact this country for at least two generations, maybe more."
I am very aware, so don't patronise me just because I don't agree with you. are you actually aware of the consequences of your constant negativity about the current situation? half the time economic downturns are simply self-inflicted by negative thinking |

Yes right. And the £GBP didn't tank, shares didn't drop, the UK credit rating wasn't revised down by all three Agencies and there is no economic threat at all to the UK - it is just in our imagination.
On the other hand, the truth is that the NHS will get an extra £350 million a week, we will still get access to the single market but now it will be free and we wont have to accept free movement and Scotland are not threatening to leave the UK. |

yes the pound dropped (two sides to that coin, one of which exports become much cheaper) but not by as much as predicted, yes shares dropped but again not in any significant way and are when I last looked trading up (so guess the markets are not that spooked), our credit rating should have been downgraded a long time ago given our public trading deficit (and bear in mind the US's credit rating was downgraded not that long ago without significant consequences)
the NHS argument was always a ridiculous one to have been used (and certainly not part of my thinking), we will still trade with Europe because they will want to just on different terms and ultimately there are bigger markets that then EU that are becoming an increasing part of our trade anyway - I know I would rather be focusing on the growing rather than declining trade partners for our long term future so I have no concern about the single market and finally Scotland will always bitch to leave (this is just a convenient excuse) - lets face it if the English had got a vote on Scotland leaving they would be gone lol (hopefully this last point is taken in the spirit it is intended - to try and lighten the mood a bit  ) |

I predict open civil war in Britain within 4 years if things don't look up. If the deals are negotiated badly there is too much bad feeling on both sides. It'll be very nasty indeed! It'll be worse than the French Revolution. Of course, I hope I'm wrong but that's got to be understood as a present danger. |

worried?? are you insane
this is an opportunity for investments in finance, stocks & shares, study the market and take the opportunity to invest as shares & prices plummet
obviously risk is involved but no one makes good earnings without an involvement of risk"

It would look like the 70's
Anyway we spend 700 bn a year, 40 is just over 5%
We can claw that back through reduction in social services

All the airports will be closing soon, all international travel stopped, UK will be a no fly zone and it's water's patrolled by armed boat's preventing anyone to escape or break in. The mainland will become a wasteland and we will all resort to cannibalism or hunter gatherers.
No electricity, gas or anything.
We are all doomed.
DOOMED I TELL YOU! |

This is it.
To protect a bunch of British jobs, the country will have to accept this."

o yes just don't put your money in an British bank as there's one or two that are about to go tits up
Lol...Best place to invest it I'd say.
yes if you can afford to lose all your money feel free to do that "
You're thinking too short term... anything you invest now for next few months will reap well in 3 to 5 years time. But then the Stayers have few risk takers and hense it was always going to be Status Quo. The opportunity has now been created by the Brexiters....its not the Brexits that seem to be the most worried though. |

" pillocks like david lammy mp for tooting? What a moron!
pssst... david lammy is mp for tottenham....
anyway he is not the only one who has suggested it.... jeremy hunt has said the same thing post negoiations...
and there is a school of thought now we may get a general election either in the autumn or the spring with the new tory pm going on the mandate of the progress...
or the latest idea coming from tory/leave circles... that article 50 should not be envoked before the next scheduled election in 2020... and let that party who wins then make the decision...."
Ok then he's a moron from tottenham! Is this the political system you prefer then _abio? No real democracy, just empty jestures of going through a voting procedure as a venere? |

Nope. No pain no gain. There would always be a short term shock effect on the markets but they will pick up. |

apparently a couple of million leave voters voted on the premise of 300 million quid a week for the NHS or because they didn't actually understand what they were voting for so probably a lot of regretters. But there are those ostriches who think everything will be fine despite the leave campaign having no policies, no strategies and all except the pathological liar Farage admitting it's all a mistake and it will cost the UK more if we exit than it cost us now |
