I've never been so ashamed to call myself British, actually scrap that because Scotland and Northern Ireland came through for us. I've always valued democracy but this isn't it, not to say every brexit vote - but a huge number of people have voted out for completely the wrong reasons. Whether its bigotry or ignorance or just too many people who feel they’ve nothing to lose or have been swept up in the lies and bull sh*t a great injustice was committed yesterday, especially for our children and grandchildren. If more people had been prepared to educate themselves and do the research, have a long hard think about the implications and what they would mean for everyone else, we wouldn’t be in this position this morning. The problem in my opinion is a complete lack of empathy.

June 23rd will be a national holiday in the future.
June 23rd will go down in history as wiping many people's pension pots out, forcing them to work maybe into their 80s.

Those of you who voted out that are currently in receipt of a pension then don't expect any sympathy from the rest of us :bravo:

Haven't managed to get to it yet as there are so many trying it's crashing the site but a petition has been started stating:

‘We the undersigned call upon HM Government to implement a rule that if the remain or leave vote is less than 60% based on a turnout less than 75% there should be another referendum,’

Not sure the good it will do but I will be signing if and when I manage to load the relevant web page.

People believed the lies.
Farage still seems delighted about it all. Even though millions of ordinary people are now suffering as a result of the financial turmoil caused by the very wealthy and very greedy who are doing all they can to protect their wealth.

I suppose that's what he's meant all this time about rebelling against the establishment...
