I feel the same we are all racist as well now
Believe it or not, I'm not particularly working class, although I did grow up in a heavily working class environment.
I'm not far removed from the current student demographic. You know the ones that haven't worked a day in their life demographic.
They've been disappointing. For some reason they believe that because they have a higher education (which by the way is available to anyone these days..) they have a more informed opinion. That by mixing with the same people, albeit from different countries, that they somehow get the world better, and are wiser for it.
They were upset that old people decided the vote, but maybe if any of them had actually turned out at last year's general election this wouldn't have been such an issue.
They accuse the Leavers of being Nationalistic, but not once did you hear how remaining is beneficial to anyone outside the UK. No word on why the EU is good for Southern Europe or the Eastern Bloc (which outside of immigration, I'm sure it isn't). Only the UK, but somehow, not in a nationalistic kind of way.

My demographic believes good principles and ideologies are the way forward. Which if we all made the effort, would be 100% correct. Unfortunately, they're naive to the ways of the real world, and how human nature trumps any train of thought, as such rendering any forward thinking, progressive idea (like the EU) impractical.

I'm sure I'm wrong on this though. That seems to be the only thing that's a given in this climate.
 
All the negativity needs to stop, this is what will lead to dark days ! The future is actually bright if we all work together to make it so.

We are all in this together now
This.

Today as yesterday, as tomorrow, a large part of our destiny lies in our own hands. Change creates opportunity - we simply need to make sure that we identify and work to take advantage of it.
 
Considering some of the bile i saw in this thread from a fair few "inners" aimed at those who dared to have an opposing view i fully expected some prickly touchy so and so's in this thread in the event we did leave. I am not interested in rubbing anyone's nose in it as tempting as it is with some posters on here, i doubt "vote leave" would be given the same considerations.

I will be totally honest, if we stayed i was half planning my move back to Austin. I wanted out that much i had taken small steps to doing it, i would not have moaned but accepted the democratic vote and left. Probably would have done already if it was less hassle to move a company to the usa.
I'd wait to see if Trump gets in, he's probably got you on a black list :-)
