Brexited | the worst threads live the longest

You're right, i just woke up
Figure of speech Stan.
But cheers for that
"If Osbourne came out today and said "we're fecked", recession would be inevitable within days."
I image they won't realise, as fair few places that voted out had hardly any immigration in the first place, it based more on a ''feeling'' of being squeezed(To be it to put it politely)which is completely stupid but we are talking about people here. Still maybe that's me being too optimistic.
That's not to say it will get better for immigrates or minorities as the leave campaign has legitimised xenophobia (And to a certain degree racism as well)into mainstream politics
Already has with the killing of MP Jo Cox.
Dark times a head.
.
What do people think the percentages of reasoning for voting leave?
I'll go with a good majority going for Immigration/ Paying into the EU.
Both which won't change if we join Norway/Switz little gang.
Obviously plenty had genuine reasons, I just don't see that being a majority.
Emotion to immigration caused leave to win.
Still makes me laugh seeing video after video of people clearly not understanding how the EU immigration works.
If they come from fecking India they didn't come the fecking Eu did they?

They will be angry when their life doesn't change and has actually gotten worse.
They'll then not accept they made a mistake and find a new scapegoat, or just keep blaming immigrants. Thats the easy route.
If things aren't going well, blame the fecking immigrants.
With newed conviction that their xenophobia is good.
Sounds like Nazi Germany to me.
10 years to see the results he said. The old Bastards will be dead before his own projection comes to fruition. feck off you bigoted wrinkly old arse hole.
Immigration is then primary factor. But I also think a lot of people, mainly down to little knowledge and ignorance really liked the whole idea of 'governing our own country' as if gave them a sense of patriotism... and the whole thought process was that we would have more money to spend on education and the NHS instead of this vacuum of money which we are sending to the EU which has no benefit to the people.
Although I think some of the leave voters are starting to realise now that it isn't as black and white as that and maybe they were a little misinformed
Superb in both likeness (Michael Pob especially) and message.
They don't have a clue about finance or money. They think £350m funding for the NHS is a lot and us spending £18 billion for membership per year is crippling us. Trade with the EU makes us £600+ billion. That's over 40 times the amount we pay to them and 100 times what the NHS get from leaving (Which they actually don't get either)
Don't we also get a considerable amount of that 18bill back in funding?
Love the second guy, "crazy human rights like we can't deport criminals because they have a cat or something like that?"
A cat? a fecking cat... no mate, it's not a cat, it's if they have a British human child and are the sole-carer you fecktard. And even then, we absolutely CAN deport them if they represent a clear and present danger.
fecking scumbags.
Add to that the NHS budget is over £100 billion and you really get to see scale.
In America especially, when the budget is in the trillions, people lose sight of the scale of things. £350 million is a lot of money... £350 million out of £100 billion is not so big though. People seem to fail to consider those things when they see numbers flashed about for government.
Not to mention its not even gonna be £350 million going to NHS.

When will people learn that chancers like Trump and Johnson will say anything to get what they want?
I take no comfort in the fact I don't think what most people thought they were voting for will be carried out.
Friends who are migrants are saying they can't look people in the eye as they walk down the street as all that goes through their heads is 'are you the half who wants me to leave?'.
That can't be undone.

Oh yeah. We only end up really paying £4-6 billion.
Americans against immigration is hilariously ironic. America is built on immigration and colonisation.
Hillary is the same though. America are pretty fecked whatever they do.
There's fecked and there's Trump fecked.
I hope this is a wake up call to Americans to actually go out and vote. Hillary is the lesser of the two evils to be fair.
They are both evil scum though. Trumps brash pride over his cuntness overshadows her more sneaky scumbag behaviour.
Evil is a bit harsh on Hilary, she's not perfect and not my cup of tea at all, but I don't see her as "evil". The Donald on the other hand is a hate inciting scum bag.
1.31...
She bullied and brutalised girls who spoke up and claimed Bill raped them and did disgusting things to keep them quiet. She openly laughed about getting a sex offender off his sentence by blaming the child for it (Admitting she knew he did it and laughing anyways). She has also used the 9/11 attacks multiple times in her campaign to her advantage.
She is a heartless bitch that will do anything to win.
North of England to join Scotland? They'd be more than welcome.
If we judge the pair of Trump and Clinton throughout their adult lives, then Clinton is by far the greater evil. Clinton is the scary elitist politician wall street shrill everyone makes her out to be, who has constantly lied throughout her adult life, purposefully destroyed lives and see's herself above the laws concerning the peasants and ruler of all. Trump is a racist egotistical dick but has done far less harm.
Manchester United - Scottish Premier League Champions. Doesn't really have a good ring to it.
To be fair, Hitler was just a veteran and failed art student.
Can Brighton come too? I know it'd be a bit tricky logistically and all but still...
"We can't deport criminals because they have a cat or sumfink."
Wasn't this claim from May debunked almost immediately? fecking hell some of these people are total morons.
Dippers still couldn't win the league though
I'd like us to create a new Britain that includes everything except the Houses of Parliament and The City - not all of London, just the bit where they have their own mayor who gets to ride about once a year wearing a big hat and being carried about in a carriage.
We can cut it off and stick it back on again on the Fife coast. No one would notice the influx of English there anyway.
Unfortunately football is banned up here. We play this other sport called "shit football".
I've already provided people with the answer. Lets move over to Greenland and make it a haven.
Substitute "cat" for "human British child where the criminal/terrorist is the sole carer" and he's partly right, but still, the person can be deported if they represent a clear and present danger.
Aye, add it to St Andrews and no one would notice a difference. Or stick it in the Firth between Fife and Edinburgh for the same reason. Saves money finishing the new bridge.
To be fair I don't think you can get to the very top of politics if you're not extremely ruthless and very flexible in your views.
Imho that's still such a small minded point to make. How many people is that going to affect?
It seems completely insignificant when you compare it to the harm Brexit is apparently likely to do to everyone.

Scotland need to be taken seriously now by government or they'll go independent.
Scotland in their own right are a country. Yet Westminster dictate to them.
Sturgeon brought up pre-referendum a majority from each country (Wales, Scotland, N Ireland, England) would have to vote leave for it to go ahead, Cameron overruled Sturgeon.
I think that kind of thing adds fuel to the fire, the lack of plan by parliament also makes confidence go. Point being Scotland, Wales, N Ireland, should all have equal say in Parliament as much as the PM.
The government claim they have lost touch, well add some people with an actual real voice to be taken seriously, I've lost all confidence in the politics of this country.
