What's the point? There are no winners here despite the leave lot celebrating right now. Everyone has fucking lost because of this. We've fucked the economy, we've fucked the country for years. But hey at least we can tell all the brown people to fuck off...
Your salty tears are going to continue to taste delicious for many years to come. You lost. Move on.
 
So these financial experts that were filling their boots at 22:00 last night and boosting the pound because they knew Remain would win, and who now have egg on their faces.... Are they the Sam financial experts who forecast gloom and doom if we left. Well they got it spectacularly wrong yesterday, what confidence should we have in their recent forecasts? They ain't done very well so far have they? ERM? Euro? 2008 Crash?

Congratulations mate. You've done as much as anybody on this forum to put a good case for leave. Thanks for that. Enjoy

They were basing their view on private polls. They were smug about thinking they were right because they were certain. Oops.

But certainty is not what kills markets -- we have the outcome now, it's certain. It's the uncertainty afterwards that does. And I suspect there'll be years of it, that may result in good things or in bad. I wonder if the EU is the Soviet Union break-up coming in reverse -- one large, closed market being fragmented and gradually opened up vs. one large, open market being fragmented and closed up.

"Everyone has lost" - you really haven't quite grasped this ballot/voting/majority wins thing have you? Never mind, all the "brown people" will help you with the arithmetic. In the meantime, try and grasp this: where there are two horses in a race and one gets to the winning line before the other, that horse is called (and you'll never believe this) the, erm....winner!

Suck on that Brussels-sized lemon.
 
BTW the only solution here is to step away from the integration of Europe strategy, reconvene to create the original single trading zone, do away with all the duplication and bureaucracy and allow countries to manage their own affairs. Nothing stops partnerships and helping each other but we don't need this overbearing controlling authority to tell everyone what to do.
