apple987 Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Makes me laugh this Scotland voted in so they should get what they voted for. The UK voted out and they are in the UK. Its tough. It's like Conservative Party winning and the North East of England saying nahhhh we voted for labour so we're getting labour
johnny the fox Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 looks like we are heading for a complete realignment of british politics.. https://vine.co/v/5BLmpqQPqAF
apple987 Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Also, why did Scotland actually vote in? I'm guessing they have few immigrants there. If they become independent in EU they will regret it big time.
Will1981 Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Also, why did Scotland actually vote in? I'm guessing they have few immigrants there. If they become independent in EU they will regret it big time. because all of the money we pay to be in the EU in England we get about 50% of what we pay in back in grants etc. In Scotland they get about 200% of what they pay in back in grants etc.
Webbo Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 British newspapers’ portrayal of the European Union in the lead-up to the referendum on June 23 has likewise been negative. The Financial Times and The Guardian have backed the Remain campaign, but they have relatively small circulations and preach largely to the converted. The Times has been evenhanded, though it finally declared on June 18 that it favored staying in the European Union. But the biggest broadsheet (The Telegraph), the biggest midmarket paper (The Daily Mail) and the biggest tabloid (The Sun) have thrown themselves shamelessly behind Brexit.” Why shamelessly? Why wasn't the Guardian or FT described as shamelessly behind remain? This is such a left wing, elitist argument." I'm on the side of the people, the people didn't agree with me, therefore they've been brainwashed by the right wing media" Such conceit.

Same with the whole, '50% of the country is being screwed by the leavers' argument. So arrogant.
Great Boos Up Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Just to say that a second referendum can not happen. 15 million people would refuse to vote giving stay the majority with less than a 50% turnout. It would be a farce.
Cadno'r Cymoedd Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 For me. The reason why I'm out. Erm, you read what I wrote?

Merging Cultures Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Erm, you read what I wrote?Yeah, and I disagree. We tried reform from within. They said they will not negotiate any more, and they think they can accelerate stuff now we won't be meddling. Why be part of something that doesn't want you? Some marriages are better off breaking, don't stay with her/him just for the kids.
lifted*fox Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 you will never win any arguments with the Bremain camp they were right and every one else was wrong. It's just a shame we're ALL going to have to potentially go through years and years of shit before everyone will realise we were right all along.
MC Prussian Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 It's just a shame we're ALL going to have to potentially go through years and years of shit before everyone will realise we were right all along. Potentially.
Countryfox Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 It's just a shame we're ALL going to have to potentially go through years and years of shit before everyone will realise we were right all along. Yep unfortunately everything that now goes wrong will be blamed on Brexit .... Ran out of dog food this morning, still it's all my own fault ... Probably rain later ..
Jimothy Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Yep unfortunately everything that now goes wrong will be blamed on Brexit .... Ran out of dog food this morning, still it's all my own fault ... Probably rain later .. Well why not? All the shit was blamed on being in the eu, so why not blame all out future ills on coming out.
Countryfox Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Well why not? All the shit was blamed on being in the eu, so why not blame all out future ills on coming out. Touché
lifted*fox Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 I wonder just how bad things will get before people are willing to concede that they made the wrong choice? My guess is VERY bad.
lifted*fox Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Well why not? All the shit was blamed on being in the eu, so why not blame all out future ills on coming out. Indeed - now the biggest scapegoat in the room has been removed who's going to take the flak for all of the country's problems now? Who will the media choose to blame next?
Webbo Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 I wonder just how bad things will get before people are willing to concede that they made the wrong choice? My guess is VERY bad. What if things don't get bad? Will you admit that you were wrong?
lifted*fox Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 What if things don't get bad? Will you admit that you were wrong? Yep. But I'm pretty certain I won't be having to do that any time soon.
bovril Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Well why not? All the shit was blamed on being in the eu, so why not blame all out future ills on coming out. What are the Express going to write about now? Oh wait... Diana.
Jimothy Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 What are the Express going to write about now? Oh wait... Diana. And how every food and drink both causes and prevents cancer.
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Also, why did Scotland actually vote in? I'm guessing they have few immigrants there. If they become independent in EU they will regret it big time. This is a pretty sure thing.
bovril Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 And how every food and drink both causes and prevents cancer. Cancerous Romanian horse meat in Weetabix killed Diana... and guess who's paying for it?
Phube Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Can I just ask purely as I've not heard from anyone who is a leaver; Has anyone here been directly, negatively affected by the EU, because apart from maybe fishermen and quotas, I can't really think if any?
apple987 Posted 26 June 2016 Posted 26 June 2016 Here's another thing. How come rest of UK weren't entitled to a vote on whether Scotland should be independent. But Scotland can vote on being in EU
