Brexit win . People power win against the establishment.

Now the hard work begins, but the EU has only itself to blame, had it been more democratic and flexible then we would still be part of it, now other EU states will follow suit.

Lets hope we don't screw up the divorce like Cameron screwed up the renegotiations..if you could call it that.

forecast not the actual result yet

My area it was 60;40 in favour of out looks like Lincolnshire was the strongest out vote obviously the polish effect

And here's the first consequence the price of petrol and diesel will now jump 10p or more



There has been a dramatic fall in the value of the pound as the strength of the UK's vote to leave the EU emerged.
At one stage it hit $1.3305, a fall of more than 10%, and a low not seen since 1985.
Before the results started to come in, the pound had risen as high as $1.50, as traders bet on a Remain victory.
But following early strong Leave votes in north-east England it tumbled to $1.43 and then took another dive after 03:00 BST as Leave maintained its lead.
The move in sterling is the biggest one-day fall ever seen and London' main share index, the FTSE 100, is expected to open sharply lower, with indications of a fall of around 7%.
Against the euro, the pound dropped 7% to around €1.2085.
The euro also fell 3.3% against the dollar, its biggest one-day fall since the currency's inception.
Currency traders say these moves are more extreme than those seen during the financial crisis of 2008.
"Never seen anything like it. These are once-in-a-lifetime moves, bigger than Lehmans and Black Wednesday, and we haven't even had the result yet," said Joe Rundle, head of trading at ETX Capital.
"It's worth noting that trading desks are not fully staffed and these are only the initial reactions," he added.
"We're waiting for the big money to crank into action over the coming days and even weeks, which will likely exert further downward pressure on sterling."

Nigel done it .All the years chipping away at the EU today is his day.

It high lited the "I am alright Jack" attitude around the country - it was very much the (well off) areas,verses the not so (well off) areas. Let the "Brain drain" that got us into this mess - begin.

Well done to the "outers" I hope that you get all that you believe you will get.
However I do find it strange that certain people in the leave camp are already saying we don't want to leave yet. we should wait until after the German elections NEXT YEAR before evoking article 50.
No, In my opinion, the vote was for leave so lets get on with it.

With Scotland and Northern Ireland voting to stay, do you think that there will be fresh referendums in those countries?

_________________
Grandad,

Scotland will stay, when we voted in 2014 to throw our lot in with the rest of the UK we did so in the knowledge that where the UK we would also go as partners, the Scottish people would rather remain a partner in a strong UK than as teeny weeny bit player in the EU, now that Britains heading out that teeny ween bit part got 10 times teenier still.

You have to bear in mind that although Scotland showed 62% of voters voted Bremain, but put into the context that only 67% of Scots even bothered to vote make the actual percentage of the Scots that actually voted remain was only 41.5% of the Scottish Electorate, that being 62% of that 67% turnout voted bremain Equalled 41.66% of our Scottish Electorate....hardly grounds for a referendum when will over half the people of Scotland Did not vote to remain in the UK...a point the SNP are glossing over.

The SNP had their chance and blew it 2 years ago for a referendum they were never going to win, they dont even have a Majority parliament in Scotland these days as people are seeing through them...If they want another Indy Referendum I'd rather welcome it because the good people of Scotland would reject it once again. Dont forget a sizable percentage of Scots voted to leave the EU and many of those were SNP supporters, Sturgeon knows full well she would be trounced once again in an Indy Campaign and that that would definitely seal her fate and reduce the SNPs seats in the future...she's full of political hot air, she will not have another referendum anytime soon...and by that time more people than ever will be benefitting from a stronger, richer UK outwith the EU.

She Knows that Scotland couldnt afford to run itself, she also knows that she cant use westminster as a foil when an indy Scotland goes belly up, she also know that with the UK leaving the EU that other countries may follow and who then is going to sponsor little old tiny Scotland...not the EU that's for sure simply because it's going to contract in size and have far less money to spend indulging Wee Jimmy Krankie and her mates.

I guess they same may apply to NI, they are not all wanting to be part of a united Ireland, not even all the Catholics in NI want that, they to will sit and wait to see if we prosper or not before deciding what to do...and prosper we will.

Grandad, your nowt but the eternal pessimist, your now in the shame ship as the Brexiteers as it steers a course away from the EU, like it or loathe it your a passemger on it...just as I would have been if we had opted to remain in the EU...I wouldn't have liked it much, but work, life and business still has to on and we all will have to make an effort to ensure the UK is a success because...Their Aint no Going Back.

Hang on here, It is Nicola Sturgeon who is calling for a fresh referendum in Scotland, not me. It is the Irish government that is calling for a united Ireland, not me.
I have already stated on here that now that the votes to leave has been decidesd we should get on with it and not mess about waiting for such things as the German elections next year. I doubt that anyone who voted to leave were expecting to have to wait up to a year before we start the actual process to leave.

Grandad,

Matters not who calls for what, Sturgeon will not be getting an INDY2 vote anytime soon...and as for NI im not sure they much want a united Ireland either but who knows.

I must agree with you, people want out sooner rather than later and before the EU Boa Constrictor coils around us once again and trys to choke us to death.

Let the exit of the EU begin, the Leader of the EU parliament has already said. "The EU is broken and can't be fixed."
