REFERENDUM RESULTS AND DISCUSSION THREAD

Some Spoons are ok. The one in Wolverhampton is not and the service is beyond shite, so it doesn't get my money on a match day. Also lost my business in other pubs due to their complete ban on Dogs, even in outdoor areas. The Spoons in Ilfracombe is a nice pub and sitting outside with the Dogs looking out to the sea is cracking, but no more. Their choice on that and I get why they don't want dogs in certain pubs (I wouldn't for instance take them in the pubs they have in Wolvo, Willenhall or Walsall as they are not suitable) but a blanket ban just means I go elsewhere.
 
The one in Lincoln high street used to be ok,good range of beers,food was good,and it was handy for everywhere,the one in Weymouth overlooking the harbour was great as well, the one in Aberystwyth is part of the railway station,used to cook the breakfasts outside on the platform,right underneath where the pigeons massed,unsurprisingly that bit got shut down for hygiene reasons
 
My local spoons in Newcastle under Lyme is a good one as is the one in Stone.

The one in Wolves is a disgusting rat hole.
 
Boris says "we'll break free of the EU like the Incredible Hulk"

Which bit of its racist? Is it because the hulk is green?
It's taking the piss out of the fat,bald,tattooed,low iq,foreign lager drinking bigots*who believe that being lucky enough to be born in England makes you superior to all others,and moan that immigrants are stealing their jobs,because yea Dr Mohammed from Syria is going to steal your job sweeping up in a warehouse and not do anything better, and if immigrants are nicking your job,maybe have a look at yourself and wonder why you're so rubbish,that a bloke whose English may not be great,can do your job a lot better.

*typecasting obviously,but you've all seen those sorts of people,usually protesting about tommeh Robinson being locked up
 
Keef mate, thats a lovely sentiment, but weren't you the one who only a few days ago was saying fuck eastern euros immigrants, england is for the anglos?

21-year-old Kieron Naylor was getting ready for his shift at Hitachi Rail Europe, a Japanese-owned firm that builds 35 trains a month for the EU market from the north-east’s biggest manufacturing park in Newton Aycliffe.

Naylor voted leave, ignoring warnings that exiting the EU could cause problems for Hitachi’s European exports. “I would just rather we were back on our own,” he said. “It’s a risk … but it should make it easier to have closer relations with Japan.”

In his driveway just around the corner, a former miner, James Skelton, 88, and his wife, Anne, 82, said they would opt for the Brexit party this time. “I don’t class myself as English any more. I’m being made into a European. I have always voted but we are losing our identity,” he said. “I believe Europe is destroying us. I would prefer to be a satellite of America than Europe.”

Paula Brown said she may vote for the Brexit party, despite voting remain in 2016. “I’ve no faith in any of them. I would never in a million years vote for Jeremy Corbyn. I would rather vote Tory, even Lib Dem.” Corbyn, she said, was “IRA”, and frightened her: “I would rather have Piers Morgan as prime minister. I know it seems mad, but he’s consistent and isn’t afraid to say what he thinks. Nigel Farage cuts through in the same way.’”


Jesus H, where to start.....

...and where does it end when the jobs are gone, they are all worse off then they already are, and Farage et al start blaming their woes on the EU, and foreigners in general. Europe has been here before and it ain't pretty.

It's a pretty typical vox pop based on my experience
 
Yep. That's replicated all over the bloody country. A second ref would be by no means a remain shoe in
 
I think a 2nd ref would lead to a fairly comfortable leave win. There would be enough people, who are nominally remainers, who feel it would be undemocratic to go back on ref 1.0. And I can't imagine there are a significant amount of leavers who have changed their minds.

So prediction is a no deal Brexit, or something very close to it, and a fairly hard-right Tory government winning a comfortable majority at the next GE. Even if Labour ditched Corbyn now, I think they'd be toast.
 
My own bloody mother was like "we survived the war, rations didn't do any harm, we've eaten seasonal food only before" - She'll have a fucking shock when their semi loses 20% value :wallbash:

I've never understood this view (not aimed at your mother, but I've heard it from others). Just because we've survived through tough times before, doesn't mean we should purposely put ourselves back into those tough times.

I'm with you, why would you cut off your own arm if you didn't need to? It so bloody strange.

I just don't get how people are so revisionist about history.

Russia and the US had a pretty big say in how the war turned out

That said, a good bit of rationing might not be a bad thing for the nations waistline
