And who's gonna replace them? UKIP? That really would be a sad day for the UK. Oswald Mosley style.

Neither labour or the Liberal Democrats seem likely, for that matter.

Mate, I wish I had your optimism. And I don't confine that to the UK.

But you have said on multiple times that you will enjoy watching it happen.

Civil unrest will happen if the Brexit takes place (it's not assured yet). A few years down the line when people no longer have any worker's rights, no job security and are even poorer. Civil unrest happens when people are hungry and have nothing left to lose. It will be the young that riot.

You think Britian is going to take away worker rights and there is going to be hunger in Europe because they left the EU?? That's just silly.

Ah....so there is always some poor schlub being sold a bill of goods about "freedom" and there is always some scum-sucking corporate pig manipulating them.  Nice work, Mathilda.

What a wonderful idea, becoming more dependent on US, right down to the food you eat.  That's what independence looks like, for sure. 

 Why do I feel like Gollum being handed the ring all of a sudden?
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!
