Based on what they are saying regarding percentages, there will never be a decision that meets the requirements.
I accept the decision of the majority and I would just like them to get on with it now. No delays, no excuses, just get on with it.

These type of whiners rather than promote Democracy are trying to undermine democracy, they should not be allowed to get their way, no way should a 2 Million petition wreck a 17.2 million democratic vote..you cant change the rules of the game after the games been played in an effort to change the outcome unless you invent a time machine.

No government in the free world would be able to change the laws on referundums just to appease a couple of million whiners, what part of Majority vote don't the clowns understand.

They can go Feck themselves or better still just Feck off to their Beloved EU...how do we know these whiners are even British Citizens and eligible to vote, any holder of an Email could sign it and sign it on behalf of others whose email details they may have..

It is quite simple to "get on with it". Enact article 50. Delaying is only going to make the uncertainty worse. Or even have some saying again that it isn't going to happen. The longer they put off starting the process, the less likely it will be that it ever starts.

They are unwashed students who can't divide a £16 taxi fare between 4 of them. They are talking out of their Chocolate starfish.

none the less it demonstrates the strength of feeling on the issue this decision could literally break up the UK and wipe out our economy especially if the government procrastinates as they appear to be doing

It is the EU who are wanting to push this as quickly as possible. Imo the reason being; They want to quell any uprising from any other factions that may also wish to leave the EU - it is not just our country that was/is unhappy.

Or there is this one.................
Quote:
To all of those who voted remain and who now are signing petitions and whinging that this country is becoming something they don't like there is but one simple answer.

Move to Europe. You have 27 countries to choose from.

- You wanted to remain because you welcome multicultaralism and you support open immigration.
- You supported remain because the EU protect workers rights and human rights.

In short you supported remain because you felt safer and more in tune with living under the EU left appeasing bubble. So much so you can't imagine living in a country not in the EU.

Why don't you move to any one of those countries ruled by the eu. You'll be protected at work, you'll have your human rights, multiculturalism and all of those things you can't seem to live without. If that's what you want then move to Europe, become an immigrant. I would do it quick though while you still can.

The question i want to ask is.... Why the Hell are YOU still HERE.

What do they do next? Well I would be thinking that nobody in our present government honestly believed that the country would vote out, so I would be very surprised if any preparations have been put in place to implement an exit. The politicians, or should we say, the civil servants, are really going to have to get their act together, and as David Cameron will not be influencing their way forward it might be some time before this procedure starts, probably after a new Conservative leader has been chosen. I personally think David Cameron has been a good Prime Minister considering what he inherited. He has kept the country financially afloat; he has put forward many many things for debate in Parliament which were discussed and either accepted or thrown out, unlike previous Prime Ministers who have pulled every trick in the book to push through what they wanted. Cameron made it clear months ago that he was leaving as Prime Minister, no matter what. Why would anybody expect him to spend the next 2 years negotiating for something he doesn't believe in? I think that as Prime Ministers go he has played his part well. He has not been perfect by any means; this I accept, but we could have had a lot worse, and what we need now is a Prime Minister and team with a very cool set of heads imo.

Following the news from around the world it would seem that the EU were very much in that frame of mind. As an aside......HAS ANYONE SEEN GEORGE......I don't really want to find him......I just want to make sure that he is not squirreled away planning a financial Armageddon, as revenge.
