Are these the same experts who said GoldenEye couldn't exist, who said the helicopter posed no immediate threat, and wasn't worth following? Governments change, the lies stay the same.
Good one. That quote came immediately to my mind too.
You don't like my 'IN' vote. You think I'm an accountant, a bean counter more interested in my numbers than your instincts.
It certainly is. A truly great piece of writing.
whilst in the Sunderland wastelands (no disrespect) what has/does the EU offer them? The Westminster elite are in such a bubble, they just cant see the EU through the eyes of voters who just cant see the positives. A stunning lack of empathy, foresight and imagination. No where was this more visible than in the online Guardian forums where trendy liberals, between their fresh croissant and frothy lattes were all too quick to sneer at the out campaign and label them as un cooth racists rather than make any attempt to see a different World.
This.
Truly a shower of bastards!
Yes, it really speaks volumes about them, doesn't it?
Wow.
Hand on heart I believe the EU vote/debate is meaningless in the grand scheme of things. When you look at the bigger picture it's meaningless.
Good luck Germany on continuing to bail out the EU. ;)

That's all.
Leaving the EU Is not going to stop the likes of Google paying little tax, it's not going to stop rich foreign currency dealers buying up a lot of UK property, it's not going to stop house prices in the south east going up, it's not going to stop food banks etc.
My point is we've been brainwashed to believe
A) We must stay in the EU to protect employee rights, to have access to the single market, to stop the threat of terrorism and crime
or
B) We must leave the EU to stop the flood of migrants taking our jobs and destroying our public services.
But I think the reality is C.
C) Little change. We don't even have an elected second chamber in Parliament. Nick Clegg tried to introduce a law to make the House of Lords directly electable. His bill:
House of Lords Reform Bill 2012
Had nothing to do with EU Interference. The remain and leave lot we elected voted the bill down. We've just brainwashed into thinking this EU vote is a big deal. It's not. It's an irrelevance. The Cons didn't even make Parliament more democratic!
Liverpool will never forget Boris .
What does Britain want to be? Who does it want to be? What's its place in the world for the next 50 yrs or so?
These questions weren't really asked, and such soul searching (without fear mongering) can now take place, and must take place. Quickly.
There is a chance to forge a new, clear, and distinct path, but only if done properly. I hope the UK will seize this historic moment with confidence.
The EU has only one chance now. To show the people of Europe, that they can act in their interest again and not only in the interest of banks and the financial world in general. That they respect (again) that the EU is made of democracies and different cultures.
We'll see what they'll do now. Personally I have no hope. They will go in the same wrong direction they have since circa 2009 under the rule of Merkel/Schäuble. The middle class will further be destroyed and the new financial aristocracy will see to it that the EU will act in their interest.
Of course I sincerely hope I am wrong and the EU will return to the purpose it once had.
Congratulations to the British voters who had the courage to choose a slightly uncertain future above the certainty of being further and further diminished within a construct called EU that has long stopped to function properly.
I'm with you @BondJasonBond006. Well said.
The US president, Barack Obama, has said that Britain will remain a key ally, as will the EU:
The people of the United Kingdom have spoken, and we respect their decision. The special relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom is enduring, and the United Kingdom’s membership in Nato remains a vital cornerstone of US foreign, security, and economic policy. So too is our relationship with the European Union, which has done so much to promote stability, stimulate economic growth, and foster the spread of democratic values and ideals across the continent and beyond. The United Kingdom and the European Union will remain indispensable partners of the United States even as they begin negotiating their ongoing relationship to ensure continued stability, security, and prosperity for Europe, Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and the world.
Referendum. I wonder if their views will be trampled over. :(
You're as bad as the ruling elite who just got a slap for similar sweeping generalisations. Just call everyone who doesn't agree with you racist and a bigot.
When will people realise that automatically labelling people borderline Nazis just fuels their distrust and disengagement with you?
You're the biggest one on here who bangs on about engaging with each and living jappily together Gustav but you're simply not interested in hearing what the average man in the street has to say if it doesn't agree with your PC worshipping, multicultural, liberal Nirvana. Cameron made the same mistake and look where he is now. Swept into the gutters of history.
The UK is a tolerant place tha has always welcomed immigrants (long before the EU was even heard of). We are one of the most advanced countries in the world in terms of gay rights and fighting racism (certainly more than half the EU where gay intolerance and monkey chants at football are still endemic).
Just because we've rejected Brussels and the contemptible political elite doesn't mean that we're going to suddenly start marching gays and ethnic minorities off to camps.
