Can't believe that fear, greed, and a xenophobia, that has NO place in the 21st century, has triumphed. I'm sorry England, but you need to hang your collective heads in utter shame. Roll on the next Scottish referendum.
Except for the next two years, and at levels that -- if today's market response is anything to go by -- could disappear from our economy every hour or so for quite a while.
Obviously I hope the market panic isn't going to last, but it could be a hollow victory to claw back some money from the EU at the same time as losing ten times as much.

Might not be a EU much longer. Watch it collapse like a house of cards. Even the French,Italian,Swedish and Dutch electorate are 50% in favour of leaving the EU and were hoping for a UK Brexit Victory !!
What won't be the same though, jambutty? We'll still pay in £350 m a week and hopefully we'll still get around half back in different ways (unless they decide to teach us a lesson to deter others)
Will our overseas aid budget be reduced, or used to bail out the EUSSR when it goes belly up? Purely out of pity and magnanimity of course, we cant be forced to now can we.
Jim, when you grow up, you'll come to realise that sometimes we all, even me, get things wrong. It's just rather churlish not to face up to the reality of that situation when it happens.
maggie..SNP no longer have a majority in Holyrood neither do they have the correct mandate in place..it depends on westminster and in the words of Kenny McAline..former justice minister "anyone who thinks a second referendum will occur is delusional " point of law..not opinion
Lets see how enthusiastic Turkey,Albania,Serbia,Montenegro,and Macedonia are to join the EU now that the major financial contributor is leaving. Merkel and the Germans can make up the shortfall!! :-)
