    Look at all the good it's doing the currency. Lauding people's lives being made a lot harder. Pathetic.

    Don't expect everyone to agree

    But the results don't lie and majority of people wanted to leave including me

    1 pound will currently get you 0.80 euros.

    I don't know much, but I know that's not good.

    Can't argue with that. The one thing that does trouble me is that the vast majority of people under the age of 50, the people who this decision will really affect for the majority of their lives (for better or worse), voted to remain.

    Excellent for exports, but as we haven't got any trade deals anymore, that doesn't matter, no one can sell their stuff anyway. Terrible for imports, everything costs a fortune. We're not self sufficient as a country, we can't feed the population on the food we grow here, we have to import stuff. So, not a good situation to be in.

    So instead of Cameron and Osborne, we get Farage, Johnson, and Gove.

    Fantastic news!

    And Scotlland and N.Ireland voted to remain. Expect referendums on independence for Scotland and a United Ireland.

    So over half of the country are racists now? Give over if you want someone to blame blame labour and tory governments who have failed misribley to controlley immigration and been mugged off by Europe. It isn't racist to want stricter border controls instead of a open door free for all.

    There will be a big short term pact in the medium term this will probably changed and stabilise. I suspect the reason for the stabilisation will be a massive cutting of employment rights which will allow us to ' undercut' European countries to balance the loss of trade deals. Still a blow for capitalism and the Tories will probably now implode into even more catastrophic in fighting so maybe Corbyn can take advantage and sneak in.

    I'm sure you are right about the younger voting to stay but how do you know? Genuine question I can see how figures are released by region but I can't see how age figures are obtainable

    Jay....the whole people of this country have spoken fro 18 to whatever...their views are equally valid....every one....who are you to suggest one particular group is more valid than another.
    To put it another way the working classes have voted out...are you suggesting their opinion is worth less than that of the intelligentsia.

    My parents are both in their 80's
    no idea how they voted but their working lives are long over and it's unlikely that they will see a large effect during their lifetime
    now take people in their 20s this vote will have a huge impact on them for all their working life
    if Jay is right and there is a large age split I do think he has a point. It's not a general election where you get another vote in 5 years

    I didn't say that any one vote was more valid than another. It's clearly not, they all count the same. But if you're 85, the number of years you'll have to live with the consequences of your decision is far fewer than if you're 20. Many of the older generation have voted to leave but they'll never actually see how that pans out. The younger generation, many of whom voted to stay, will be the ones who have to live with it.

    It's reading ***** like this that annoys me the most. I bet you don't even know why you've voted.
