If Lib Dem are willing to fight for people who want to remain in the EU, I'd vote for them.

feck them.
Seriously. Great irony in that the majority of the leavers are the ones who likely can't afford nor justify a reason to leave the UK when it turns to shit.
I'm in the same boat but doing my Masters. I work part time at a local store. That's my only source of income.
I had planned on looking for a job in either England or Scotland, but yesterday has made me realise it's a bullshit plan. I'm now sending applications everywhere.
Half the country, and most of the planet: Leaving is a mistake you dumb pricks.
Leavers: Lol shut up, we're magic.
*everything starts going to shit*
Leavers: WHY DID NO ONE FECKING WARN US?!?!

You're well-educated and have good prospects of affluence in the future. Your interests, as you've just acknowledged, lie with the better-off. Almost all students are poor; what has that got to do with anything?
And me
They're also the ones who will be hit the hardest by the shitfall. It's amazing really. A whole swathe of British society committing Hari Kari for reasons that seem at best very vague.
That's why I don't really get this idea that the rest of Europe is angry at the UK. The reaction I've seen is more like mystification at how you've managed to sabotage yourselves so badly.
Read an article on the Mail that there's a campaign by pro EU MPs to get a lot of the MPs who voted for Remain (2/3) to kill it when it gets to the commons. MPS still have to vote on the referendum.
Please be true!
Better off? So you think I don't give a shit about the people in my background? That technology or knowledge we uncover won't help everyone and not just the rich?
Better off? Difference being I don't see it like that. I simply see that I have an opportunity to work for research companies or departments in universities that will innovate and/or contribute to human knowledge. A lot of this involves projects at a European level. You don't do a fecking PhD for the money - there isn't a huge amount in it (compared to say someone with just an undergraduate), I can assure you.
I want opportunity and closing our doors is a massive slap in the face to Britain's science and technology sector. This has already been talked about though.
Never mind me though - this is not going to benefit someone working in a factory either. The only difference is, I can likely leave this place and he/she probably can't/won't.
"If you'd read my twitter"...if only Will had laid into that one.
IMF has published that its own (troika) policies further damaged the situation. AFAIK there are reports of malnutrition in schoolkids making them faint during class, which is rather a big jump in standard of living. And as with everywhere else, he preceding generations, in combination with really corrupt governments, and the EU looking out solely for the bottomline of creditors (some of the bailouts have been for interest repayment alone), have fecked this one.
Of course size matters, if you are a small supplier to Tesco they dictate terms. If you are Kellogs you get a better deal.
TTIP is a normal trade deal and it would have to be ratified by every nation state, it is not going to pass national legislatures if It is a carve up for multi nationals
Good bye Britan. I really feel sorry for you. Betrayed by the far right wing and neoliberal stupid people, and even an act of national terrorism didnt changed the feelings of the majority of the people. Good luck for all of you, you will need it.
Btw: I read a comment, that the parents of somebodys girlfriend votet leave cause they "had colonies before the EU" (wtf?), seems that now the Kingdom is melting down as Scotland and Northern Ireland werent so stupid to vote leave and now wanting out. Congratulations parents, you will loose a lot more than just your colonies.
I will miss you, no Erasmus anymore for you, no freedom of moving,working,living in our beautiful continent anymore. Only your little sad nationalistic island.

For all Europeans that have been contemplating a move to Britain, you had best do it now. Plenty of time to make your arrangements before any legislation can be passed.
The UK could try sending existing EU citizens home after exit, but I doubt they will, the press coverage of millions of forced repatriations would be absolutely horrendous.
So, I predict a massive increase in immigration in the near future.

I've heard some leavers trying to save face say they don't want to reduce immigration but control it. 
Like the EU will allow us use the points based system in exchange for access to the free market.

Once the EU agrees a deal national legislatures wont matter. We have already seen this with greece they will get the nations to sign one way or the other.
Gove already admitted immigration will probably skyrocket.
That's one of the things I find confusing. Surely it should have swayed more voters.
If my experience wth the lib dems is worth anything they'll campaign to remain the EU, get a sniff of power Leave the EU and round up EU nationals and put them in gulags.
Thats my experience of the Lib Dems. I do not trust them and I'll never vote for them in my life.
There'll be a brain drain of sorts. But no idea how big. Academia is absolutely bricking it, especially science.
No saying some didn't approve of it. I like you thought it would sway the vote the Remain way.
@NinjaFletch
I understand what side of the spectrum Labour and Conservative parties are on... But where do LibDems fall???

Problem is, you could just imagine him writing that and seeing nothing wrong with it.
Yep.
Sad that it didn't really
Scary that it didn't. That someone murdering a young mum and what seemed like a really caring MP didn't bother them one bit.Sad that it didn't really
Yeah especially when you consider they were on opposite sides. You'd have thought some of the leave support would have gone "Hang on a minute"...
They will side with who ever offers them a place in the government then take their policies as their own. They're political mercenaries moving which ever way the wind blows.
Nonsense
Greeks, for all the anger at the EU stull want to stay in both the EU and Euro
This is the kind of thing that makes me hopeful that some of the younger generation take more of an interest in politics.
My generation has been fecked over and I hope some of us want to do something about it.

You are....lighting up the twittersphere.
David Lammy Labour MP says Parliament should stop Brexit through Parliament vote
I dunno if this has been posted, but...
Yeah I guess but I meant in a more direct way.
Same, Lib Dem are lacking much identity or conviction. But they have the potential to pick up votes especially disillusioned younger voters.
The data almost certainly doesn't exist, but it would be interesting to see if the turnout for the first time voter generation in 2010 went up or down last year, post-tuition fee lies.
The Lib Dems are the last I'd have on a list of potential parties for disillusioned younger voters, considering their role in making them disillusioned in the first place.
