They're probably not capable of understanding anything to be fair to them.

I do wonder if there's loads of out voters who were taken in by the whole 'make Britain Great again' shenanigans and are now reading the news and regret it. If we had another referendum in a week, the vote would be quite different imo.
The whole return to "great" Britain argument is such a load of shite but it's a soundbite that works for people. I think there's gonna be a lot of disappointed people, but then again I'm not sure what they expect, or what "great" era we're going to return to. Nostalgia always makes things seem better than they actually were.

Absolutely delighted with the result. Now on the path to renegotiating our own trade laws, and controlling our borders. As many have said, short term sacrifice for long term prosperity.

DarkSithLord you keep liking posts like this. Anything to add yourself mate?

Very happy at the result. I think the gen population has stuck two fingers up at the ruling elite and is sick and tired of being ruled by Brussels .
And if we were actually ruled by Brussels they might have had a valid point. Yet another Leave fallacy that millions have fallen for, a little like the weekly NHS figure.

Out of interest which rules they implemented did you particularly dislike? Genuinely curious as people have mentioned it a lot but haven't elaborated.

replace Deutschland with the UK of course
Id just like to make clear I in no way support the views of the Nazi party and I am not a racist. While Immigration was one of the factors as to why I voted to leave it was not the main one. For me it was about sovereignty and autonomy and being able to make our own laws and not in Brussels.

I think it's a protest vote...just with far stronger repercussions than the local election protest votes. Don't think it's any surprise that the regions of the U.K. That voted strongest to leave are those that will feel a larger disconnection to the current government.

DC being told the reality about Universal Credit. Meanwhile in the real world he wouldn't be eligible, but I'd love to see him filling in his job booklet and satisfying some DWP proto fascist that he's actively seeking work.

There was no one particular rule I disliked it was more a general case of them ruling our lives so to speak when they will not elected in office by us and we can not remove them. I find the EU anti democratic.

I'd rather faceless bureaucrats in Brussells be making our laws than the shower of c*** that we've got for a government making them.

I was extremely shocked this morning when I woke up to a Leave vote. I saw bookies offering 10/1 for the Leave at some points yesterday, how they got that so badly wrong I don't know. I have a brand new mortgage (with a Spanish bank) and a baby on the way. I know it's not about 1 individual, but I could really do withut the economic shock that's already coming from this. We might recover to where we were a few days ago, we might not, who knows, why people vote for such unsurety I don't know. A situation where Michael Gove and Nigel Farage are celebrating is one I never wanted to see.

Dangerous and worrying times ahead for me and my young family

Yeah I am not a huge fan of Farage at all or Gove for that matter after what he did to the education sector either.

And I wasnt a fan of Boris either up until this campaign. However IMO and this is only my opinion I think he has acquitted himself well in this campaign although part of me is still filled with apprehension at the real possibility of Boris getting in to Number 10 I think. Historic times in British politics for sure.

The irony in OUR Call of Duty generation mocking a more experienced generation who have lived and fought in wars is quite simply priceless. Grow up.
I don't think Camborne Gills is that old tbf

Wave bye bye to your rights in the workplace though.

Im not on here very much anymore but I thought Id just swing by and let everyone know what a fantastic result and im delighted what a wonderful day for Britain. Its a massive triumph in the face of significant and commited levels of multi-level indoctrination, media bias, political and economic corruption and of course, a growing number of ethnically cosmopolitan(new national?) people who will inherintly not be as inclined to concern themselves about the nation states of old and who have been probably persuaded since knee high to be truculent to the very notion of British national self determination.
We now need a Brexit goverment to take over asap and start sorting things straight away. But I havent been shocked that the metropolitain liberal elite are still shouting the usual evil bigoted racist xenophobic horrid whiteys. Next up is Trump in the White House

Its never to late to save your country.

Contrary to his bumbling oaf image, Boris to me has always come across as a bit of a sly fucker. It's speculation but I wouldn't be at all surprised if privately he doesn't even believe we should have voted out. In my opinion his standing for Leave was purely because Cameron was for Remain, and the opportunities that therefore now present themselves in terms of the party leadership, and therefore PM. He knew that, should we vote out, Cameron's position was untenable and he was likely going to be the biggest benefactor of that.

I have seen nothing at all to suggest 'short term pain for long term gain' is anything but a campaign mantra. It doesn't just work like that automatically you know?
