UK to leave EU

[madog]

Actually there is now a vacant space in the EU, maybe the USA would like to apply

Exactly. Do it, yanks.

You'll be crying for your own referendum soon enough in that case.

The way I see it is we need to unfuck ourselves.

We did exactly that by leaving the EU.

Yeah because being cut off from the rest of Europe is a strength because we're 'Great Britain' /sarcasm

[The Grand Nudger]

We already -belong- to a union.  Somehow we've managed, and we call people who talk about secession loons, rightly. That was pretty weak.

[Edwardo Piet]

We're isolated now. Why the fuck should we leave the rest of Europe? It makes no fucking sense at all.

[Losty]

I don't think we qualify lol

[Edwardo Piet]

America is in Europe just like Mars is in my anus right?

Oops *Uranus.

Some of the pro-remain crowd are asking for another fucking referendum in a petition that only has 400,000 signatures and they're also talking about protesting outside parliament in the name of "democracy", how funny is that. Bastards clearly don't respect democracy.

Fuck right off.

I'm sure if we'd voted "remain" then pro-leave people would be doing exactly the same thing tbf. Selective outrage.

It was such a close margin that you have to pretty much expect very organised protest and petitions against it. It's not exactly like it was a landslide 90% "leave" vote, it was barely 50%. That's a lot of people who wanted to stay, barely a minority.

I voted leave but I'm not all that happy about these results to be honest.

I'm really not this white English nationalist some people seem to think I am (for a start I come from a Polish/Russian family I'm not even fully English), I voted for out simply because I don't like the idea of big government power and I like the idea of a small government with more control being able to make quicker more efficient decisions.

But what I didn't take into consideration is how divided the country would be, from what I can tell most of London, nearly all of Scotland and Ireland wanted to remain.  

Now I can be stubborn sometimes, some people think I'm callous, but I don't like the idea of living in a country where 49% of the people in it are pissed off and it's actually dividing up the UK.

I'm not totally pessimistic though either, I don't think there's going to be a total collapse of anything and I think I'll still have a job, but I'm not going as far as to say I'm celebrating. I think whatever happens next it's going to be tough.
