    In order:
    EU failing
    Euro failing
    EU unnaccountabilty
    Economy which is linked wth immigration (not been a problem to date but open borders cannot work in the current state of projected world migration numbers)

    Immigration was a factor for many people because it takes 3 weeks to get a GP appointment, that's not acceptable in one of the richest countries in the world.

    Personally I think the Poles are some of the best immigrants we could have got.

    Ah. So you voted out of Europe on the basis of Tory underinvestment in the NHS.

    3 weeks? I can get one instantly no matter what time of day I phone up. Has it taken you 3 weeks or have you heard this anecdote about a friend's sister's cousin's auntie's dog? This GP appointment that I can get the same day (in a place with a high level of immigrants may I add) is free. I find it extremely acceptable and count myself very lucky.

    I have to say it's very difficult for us to get an appointment....two weeks last quote for my wife ...however that is nothing to do with immigration...more to do with the way some practices are run.

    Seriously? I know a lot of practices will only take appointments the same day (and you have to phone exactly at 8am) but my practice has always let you book same day, advance... basically whatever you want.

    Virtually impossible for us...they trialled a drop in where you just have to wait your turn but that's gone now . Ring at 8 and it's permanently engaged , when you get through it's fully booked , the last time one of us needed same day treatment we had to go to a drop in in Rotherham.

    Ah well, you'll get tons more doctors now that the NHS is getting all this extra money ;) Not sure where the doctors are going to come from though as we don't have enough in the UK.

    As the rules of this thread state that immigration can't factor into your answer, I'm genuinely interested, which rules do you diagree with (bearing in mind that the UK voted yes to 98% of the rules anyway)?

    There was no central unelected dictatorship. Congrats you voted based on false information. Exactly why idiots like me and thee shouldn't have been voting on something so important

    At my doctors you have to call at 8:30am exactly and all appointments for that day are gone well before 8:40. The last time I was at the doctor's I overheard a lady talking to the receptionist. Her appointment was cancelled for a reason that I didn't quite catch (but it was a fault on the doctors side) so the lady asked to rebook for the next day. The reply? 'im sorry, you can't book for tomorrow. You'll have to phone back at 8:30 tomorrow and we might be able to fit you don't.

    Mine has always got signs up saying 'accepting new patients'. What are the opening hours of yours? Ours is 8am-8pm Mon-Fri and then appointment only Sat and Sun at the local 'hub' - whatever that is - so that might help matters.

    I find it unacceptable to pay into a faceless business that I receive nothing back from.
