There is a thread on the BBS which is called something like, If the idiots win what will you do? That pretty much sums up the attitude of the young, arrogant, primarily left wing Remain types. They think they own the moral and the intellectual high ground and have contemp for anyone who disagrees with them.
The BBS is full of them and I am personally delighted that we voted leave to stick two fingers up to them and the politicians who have screwed us for so long.
What we can't do is allow those scheming b******s to backtrack on our democratic decision and keep everything the same by the back door or find a way to have another referendum.

It's not just the young or the BBS Hrolf.

A lot of the luvvies are indignant that us thicko leavers haven't the cerebral awakening that they have to have voted with them and their vision of a multicultural society living in bliss and harmony with plenty of cash to splash on Opera and other Thespian performances. Then enjoying a late night sushi style supper before retiring to one's pied-à-terre .... perhaps inviting a young foreign Artisan to partake of a nightcap before indulging in mutually agreeable sex?

Actually..... that does sound rather nice?

Shame the reality is somewhat different for us under classes!

Ahhhhh..... but to dream, dear boy!

Hoof, this is a genuine question from someone who really doesn't know what to make of it all...can you give me some examples of how leaving the EU will directly benefit you and/or the wider population?

Similarly can the remain camp do the same?

I hear all this stuff about taking back control of decisions but what decisions have the EU imposed that people are so unhappy about? How has being part of the EU been detrimental and what can we gain from being out of it?

I don't live in a bubble but tend to let this stuff wash over and just try to take care of my own. I can't look at any politician and identify with them... one side rubbishes the other to try and gain popularity and once in power promise with one hand and take with the other.

That sounds bloody awful to me. I never did like pretentious arseholes.

They can shove their wine tasting, their theatre and the rest of their pathetic meaningless, self indulgent little lives up the arse.

Now I had to interrupt a meeting with my Feng Shui consultant to write this, so you will have to excuse me.

Yes I could.... but the Referendum was last Thursday so what's the point!

You could actually read all of this thread, but I guess you want it all packaged up nice and neat in one post without too much trouble? LOL

I'll warn you though, some people may have exaggerated the importance/accuracy of their claims on here (on both sides I might add).

I've got a dog to walk, lunch to prepare and a couple of episodes of GoT to watch on TV this pm.... sounds better than slaving over my keyboard to belatedly update you with EU referendum Pros/Cons.

The FTSE is today back to the middle of its range, that was his point. The Dax and CAC fell much more last week than the FTSE and today he stood up in Brussells and told them all they need us more than we need them (for trade). I actually think it's equal but not as effective.

The pound is down against the dollar. The Eurois down against the dollar. The pound is down against the Euro. The pound/dollar is at equal lows to 30 years ago. The pound/euro is not. It is at 2013 levels. It'll make prices higher but our exports more competitive.

Farage has worked in forex and knows the drill.

what I disagree with is your assumption that anyone who voted leave is a part of, or has sympathy for the far right. I voted out but I want Hilary Benn for PM FFS.

You are trying to bend this into a debate about the far right which it is not, Everyone knows they are dicks, same as any extremist.

My point which you are helping me make, is that it would seem that persons such as yourself are hell bent on tarnishing everyone who voted out as a nazi sympathiser, and that simply is not the case.

I have the cross of St George tattooed on my leg, I feel this is now stereotyping me as a racist thug, of which I am not, similarly I expect every women in a Burkha feels as though they are being stereotyped as a terrorist, and they are not.

So please for sake of clarity stop insinuating all leave voters are racist, as your type of viewpoint is just as harmful as the knuckle dragger's.
