If that happens I'm moving to Scotland.

And one day if I can afford it, I'm moving to America.

Think what you like, Tibs.

Nationalism is xenophobic.

There is actually some framework by which they may join the EU independently even if they don't vote for independence. But Scotland overwhelmingly voted remain; this might be the straw that breaks the camels back.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I'm aware.

We'll see what happens when the day comes. I'll always be British before Scottish, regardless of the result.

You might not have personally voted for that reason, but a large number of people certainly did.

You are cheering when your currency is collapsing before your eyes. This is what happens when people who have no idea about economics are allowed to vote on matters which effect the economy of an entire country.

The leave campaign lied to you. Economists warned you this would happen. I feel sorry for you if you think this will be a good thing for Britain.

But mostly, I'm pissed off.

@Steel

If it is, this vote will have been the vote that dissolved the UK.  Not what leavers had in mind, I'd reckon.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I wasn't actually eligible to vote in this referendum. So don't look at me. I just support the leave campaign with a burning passion and I am glad that the men and woman of my country made the right decision.

That's two more areas for leave, by the way. Wink

I'll be blunt... I see this as a victory for reactionary politics, and that in my opinion is the worst kind Sad a victory for people who aren't happy unless they're angry or complaining about something. Sorry but that's my opinion.
