Ignoring so many for so long has consequences.

Re: Consequences of the UK leaving Europe
Attempting to pull down the political establishment is something I completely get and in many ways support. But I can't forgive the racism, xenophobia and bigotry showed by so many (and no, I don't mean everyone who supported Leave, before anyone shouts at me) , and still less those who whipped it up and used it for their own political ends. At some point we are all responsible for our personal behaviour.

On a good note , Boris has said everything is stable. Pound is down to $1.31 and RBS shares are down 23%.

This really shouldn't be that much of a surprise when you realize that Europe exists for one reason and one reason only and that's to be a bunch of f.ups history teaches us this

Of course not - those Europeans don't bother to learn or speak proper English. Instead, they use those funny words with funny symbols. Who could read that nonsense?

...Elle a fait beaucoup d'efforts pour améliorer son français
No wonder we voted to leave.

S&P downgraded the UK 2 notches, down to AA , one grade below the US, on a negative outlook.
I'm glad I got out when I did. The one time the flip of a coin worked in my favour.
