REFERENDUM RESULTS AND DISCUSSION THREAD

Perhaps prog and thm could be bold enough to make some concrete predictions?

What five objective improvements will we see two years from now?

My Utopia starts today. Fuck the EU, we are getting our country back. The EU is like a sect, you have been brainwashed to love them and dislike your family. Soon you will realise that the sect (EU) didn't love you at all, they just wanted your money, it was your family ( Great Britain) that really loves you. Today is the start of freedom day.

Your utopia involves living in fucking Spain while those of us in the U.K. get shat on. Thanks a fucking bunch.

I opted out and took an allowance plus the tax free 45p a mile. Even with buying my own car, insuring and putting a bit by for emergencies I'm still massively better off.

I'm guessing you do more business miles than private miles to make the money back on the mileage?

Private use probably accounts for 90% of my mileage so there's little scope for making anything back that way, think last month 45p a mile on business would've only got me back about 30% of my overall fuel spend.

It's a bit biased here anyway as the company has got all the infrastructure in place for maintaining the cars on site it's in their interest to encourage more people to go for the company car rather than the allowance, which is pretty weak compared to most other places, and the more cars they're buying the better buying gains they can achieve making it even more efficient for them.
 
Actually heard the phrase

"We won, you lost. Get over it" on 5 Live just now. Does that sum up the thoughts of most Brexit supporters?
 
Certainly the view of enough to tip the balance in favour of Leave, unfortunately.

Not quite, you forget to mention that we're all thick racist morons.

Does that sum up the thoughts of most Remain supporters ?

Right

Purdah ends when the polls shut in twenty minutes. We won't re-open the old thread as there is so much circular bitchiness on there. This is the new place for your referendum discussion. Please bear in mind this is your "after-result" discussion so please don't dredge up the old arguments.

And play nicely. This thread will be watched and misbehaviour from posters on either side of whatever the result turns out to be will be looked upon gravely.

Well everybody took note of that didnt they?

Nothing will change today, so how does your Utopia start today? We literally give them a letter. That's it.

At least the poor and those in poverty (the people you are most worried about) are in safe hands in Britain now. Great Britain loves them, I'm sure the Tories will look after them.

Not all leave voters are thick racist morons, but all the thick racist morons voted leave.

Can't speak for any other Remain supporter but certainly my thought, but you forgot to add the word cunt to that as well.

https://www.theguardian.com/comment...fits-government-cost-of-living-multinationals

During the run up to the Referendum, I looked at various sources / people, with various opinions.

I didn't find anything from John Longworth at the time. DW may have reminded us about him previously as he sometimes writes for The Guardian ?

So this article should give you at least 'the five' you were after. He can certainly articulate them far better than I.

He also wrote this one a couple of months before the Referendum.

Interesting that he says the business community was split 50:50 on Remain / Leave.

Massive trade deficit with Europe and a trade surplus with the rest of the world.

https://www.theguardian.com/comment...ll-truth-leaving-eu-british-chambers-commerce

Remain supporters can of course pick holes in his opinions.

But, surely none of us can give any 'facts' about how things will definitely turn out.

But because I agree with his comments then perhaps I see a brighter future in the UK ?
 
So more great anecdotes of why people voted leave:

There are no public toilets in one of the market towns in Wales.

There are less Motorcyclists on the roads
 
I wouldn't like to speculate on a specific number, just most of them.
