Have to agree with you on Cameron front.

Do posters think that what we are arguably seeing is a rise against The Establishment with classic misjudgment of public feeling by main parties?

Have to say that I now think that Corbyn is in serious trouble as well given lackadaisical approach to REMAIN campaign.

Where next for Farage given that he has pretty much achieved his goal?

This is my personal message to Hoof and people like you.

You have f*cked me. My pension will never recover

Your have f*cked my children, the economy will never recover. Dublin will be happy tonight and watch what Edinburgh does. You killed the only goose we had laying decent sized eggs.

You did this for your own gain knowing it would adversely affect a huge proportion of people, especially Londoners like the HOLers. And then you boasted about your gains.

You used the disenfranchised to get your own way, even though it won't benefit them and will in the end adversely affect them.

The infirm will be in particular jeopardy, funding for the NHS will fall quickly. It's a good job you made money on the exit so you can buy your private health care.

Everything will grind to a halt for years to come, you can forget big infrastructure investments.

This was not a risk it was fair for you to take on behalf of others

For all of these reasons I despise you.

Maybe, when you look back on what you did, you will come to despise yourself too.

France will Frexit
Netherlands will Nexit
The EU will DIE

Isn't that kind of natural though? Sometimes it's hard to resist saying "I told you so".

Oh please. Exaggeration to the extreme. The economy will never recover? What is it with people like you? Try to see the long term, not this week, this month or even this year.

The long term is a more GLOBAL world with GLOBAL economies. How can you expect to achieve that when cutting yourself off with the majority of the trade deals we had. Britons seem to be far too arrogant and undervalue other countries. Clearly Britain will not recover because we will lose the inward investment and scale that supports our trading negotiations.
My specific interest is in farming. My prediction is, especially following Brexit, only massive farmers will survive as they have the trading strength and economies of scale. This is a real life situation that shows we need to be part of a bigger trading bloc.

He was conspicuous by his absence in the debate and seemed happy to let the blue on blue Tory feuding take the headlines. To my mind he is a guilty as Cameron in playing politics with this referendum and did fcuk-all except give the odd limp sound bite.

The future goes on for many generations, not just the next few years.

Huge? You sure about that? Aren't you exaggerating again like Father to suit your stance?

Consider this, just roughly.

Sterling falls 10% and negates any trade tariffs, and that's whilst the EU still continues till the next default. Spain, Italy next? We'll be out and the 1st to benfit.

Sterling falls 10% and prices of goods increase, inflation rises to 3-4% but wages rise because of kerbs on immigration.

MP's are now saying they should have listened to people around the country. Bit late for that.

Instead of blaming maturer people, why not blame the apathetic yoof who don't/didn't vote? I've voted in every General Election since I qualified. Youngsters now prefer to vote for Big Bruv. Sense of entitlement without any responsibility.

And when the youngsters of today are able to buy a house, not a box flat, when they want, where they want, and in an area still inhabited by their friends and family and close to work, none of us expect any thanks, but that's why a lot of us voted leave. The sense of entitlement again.

Not that this applies to you but I'll raise it anyway. People of all colours voted leave. Just watch the tv.

Yes, I agree with you, they let me down. Had I been able to vote, as I was desperate to do, I would have been the first person into the polling station, like my brothers. Perhaps the relatively low turn out could be attributed to things such as:
Older people having more spare time in general. This is particularly relevant to those who have retired.
It is also very hard to identify with politicians who do not represent my age group.
I feel that young people were not concerned enough about the referendum as no one expected this outcome.
