EU referendum

[Cate Fox]

In a comprehensive survey of one person, Leave voters believe all three of them are total ****s. They didn't win any argument, this voter apparently had his own reasons for voting the way he did.

But then wanting to "**** shit up" probably wasn't the best reason.

I like.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't necessarily disagree with that. As I say, though, removing all reasoning and theories, Boris, Gove and Farage, were the winning headliners. That's pretty amazing, really.

As opposed to Hameron, Cokey whore bloke and a bunch of insipid opposition types?

Its almost scary considering who they are. God knows what we will end up with later in the year.

I'm not suggesting they were the reason people voted the way they did at all. Just pointing out the fact, that's all.

I'm not trying to prove anything, Maws. If you don't find it interesting, fair enough.

I'm building myself up to watching the BB vote with the girl.

My vote is that she leaves with the television.

I've no idea what you're talking about, but yay...

I think the problem was that the remain camp decided to go for "project scare" and then treating everyone like they were a racist.

Also don't underestimate the effect of Obama trying to tell us what is best for us. That must have turned a few people too.

Indeed... I think I was more irritated by "celebrities" who didnt even live in England or contribute 12 months of the year tax like the rest of us, telling me how to vote. Do you know what, rich feckers who only live here part of a year, **** you... I'll vote how I want when I live here permanently.

I've followed Gary Lineker on Twitter for years and I can't get over how bitter he is about the result.

Lots of people seem to think that leaving the EU was unlikely and cannot deal with the result. Very poor performance by some of these people, just slagging off the majority of voters.

We're all evil racists dont you know.

So does this mean that now that Cameron has said he will step down, will we have an undemocratically elected leader of the country?

Democratically, nothing will change. Camoron has stepped down as Prime Minister but he's still an MP, the job that the voters in his constituency elected him to do.
The Queen appoints the PM based on who the Conservative party chooses, which is how Pigfucker got the job in the first place. Nobody ever elected a PM.

I think it's good that we can make Britain great again.

Again?

 

[Jeff]

Again?

That's what a lot of the brexiters keep saying, so it must be true.

 

[Mawsley]

Yes the **** "again". It was great for three days during the summer of 1978 (not '69, **** you Brian Adams). It was partially great on May 19th, 2001, but then became slightly less great on Tuesday. I voted for at least a week of greatness, and a week of greatness I'm going to ****ing have.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but a majority of the British people have shown in this referendum their desire to leave the EU. This referendum is not legally binding, it's not official until we invoke article 50. Yet we've got the head of the EU telling us the UK needs to begin the process immediately. This sums up one of the reasons as to why I voted out. It's a mass **** off from me, we will do it when we're good and ready.... Absolute dictatorship in disguise. We should be proud we hav...e stood up to this.

Additionally I was listening to Five Live this morning where they were discussing with people what their reasons were for voting out and it was an interesting listen. People who voted remain did so because they wanted to remain part of the EU but people who voted out seemed to do so for varying reasons. It seems to me like the culmination of successive governments and political figures in this country being completely out of touch with the poor and working class. An abject failure to address their fears and concerns that has built up since the recession. They're living ina bubble being the 5th biggest economy in the world thinking everything is hunky-dorey whereas the poor and working classes get to see very little positive from this, and they're totally oblivious to it. Immigrants get the blame from unemployed or people stuck on zero hour contracts. There are worries about our NHS and lack of housing and the perception is that it's going to reach breaking point until we get control of immigration numbers.

An aussie expat who voted exit gave a good example that he held a party for some friends from work, if they bring over 200 friends unexpactedly then suddenly his good will and acceptance etc of them gets lost under worries that he can't cater for them. This seems to resonate with fears of some of the UK population that successive governments have not only failed to address but also seemingly failed to notice.

You hear of stories of local councils banning the display of St. George's flags because it might be frowned upon by non-English folk in our country but they fail to realise that when people come to our country, they should arguably accept our cultures and little things like this have added up over the years. When you look at things you can see why there is so much hate building up for immigrants when UK governments seem to be putting their rights before those of their own people. It's not a case of racism. It's the case of successive governments having been incredibly naive and stupid and some people have been using the out vote as a way of hitting out at this sort of behaviour...
