Because Carney has promised to spend our £250bn reserve to prop it up. That's half of what Brown had to spend to bail out the banks to save the economy in 2008, and that led to 8 years (and counting) of austerity. FFS, do you people think we're using the £350m a week that we've 'saved' to buy magic beans that'll grow money trees?

"Do you people"...?
 
Most expensive exercise in Paki - bashing ever. Sorry to be a sore loser, but half of them are surprised they've won and are wondering what it actually means. The other half, if my experience of workmates and one-or-two colleagues go, are spending the non-existent £350m a week on pay rises, tax cuts and boats to deport 'Dem immigrants'. But it is what it is.

What I find astonishing is that the North (with the exception of Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, York (yea!) and Newcastle (just) has voted @ 2/1 in favour of leaving, supposedly based on job security, casual labour, etc; but a year ago most of them couldn't even be arsed to get out of bed to vote for a Labour manifesto that put all that at the centre of it. So let's call it what it is and stop dressing it up in respectable clothes - an act of spite in protest of immigration. We'll make the country so poor that no-one will want to come here. Scorched Earth.

Nailed it mate and they will reap what they have sown, as will we all now.

It's not just Paki-bashing, it's Albanian horse and cart riding gippo-bashing, and lazy, sweaty, stinky, dark skin Turk bashing, mud and stick village dwelling Serb bashing and bashing any other 'other' that fits in with their mass media tabloid version of what human beings are, and all this fuelled by the already fervent hatred towards Muslims and middle-eastern cultures and countries that's stoked by the mainstream media and crucially ISIS who must be seeing this and thinking not a bad year's work lads. In another 10-20 there won't be a united Europe anymore just a host of fractured, politically warring states whose borders are now even more porous and available to our foot soldiers to get their machine guns and suicide vests across.

We're sailing, no, we have sailed, into the waters of anti-culture, anti-education, anti-intellectualism, of one dimensional nationalist thicko mob mentality and apathy elsewhere :emoticon-0119-puke:
 
****s already hit the fan on a personal front. I had a candidate go for an interview yesterday. Her feedback after the interview was really positive. So was the feedback from the company this morning. I phoned her to tell her and left a message saying she just had to meet the CEO and no-one else was going back. She then said she was nervous about joining a start-up, which started up 8 years ago. That's potentially £500 down the Swanee. Thanks Brexit <doh>
 
Didnt say it was. But those saying 'XYZ will happen now we're out' are only guessing. No one truely knows if leaving is really going to have a huge negative or positive impact

If I resign from work because I don't like the brown people there I know, at least in the short term, that I'll be financially worse off, even after I've blown the month in hand pay on a piss-up.

The impact is [HASHTAG]#nailedon[/HASHTAG] negative, it's just a case of whether it's catastrophic or merely crushing <ok>
 
The pounds already increasing after the initial "crash". Only time will tell us what it really means.

France, Italy, Belgium, Germany, Holland, etc all calling for referendums since Brexit too.

That might be a rescue over next few years...current EU collapses and a new streamlined one replaces it (would mean another referendum <doh>)...if we can avoid all these countries descending into insular nationalism during the process of course...

Got to try and be proactive now as a people rather than defeatist or fatalistic...let's see if we can make the political parties more representative: they have all been heavily damaged. Let's try and move government away from Westminster tof the regions (thinking England here really)

Let's try and move away from a dependence on the financial sector as our major "industry".

Let's see if we can create a new trading link with Europe once the EU and Eurozone collapses.

What else are we going to do like?

I have no idea what this means?

What gets me on that is one of the sages of the Brexit movement, Patrick Minford, who was Thatcher's guru during the 80's, has always advocated de-industrialisation in modern economies. He actually said that losing what is left of our manufacturing base is 'No bad thing'. So what is our major export going to be? Will we go back to piracy and selling slaves?
 
Strange a lot of people were pissed off with Greece and having to bail them out when they went bust because we. We're part of euro, yet are now angry that we are leaving and we therefore won't be forced to bail them out of similar thing happens?

£1.5 trillion wiped off world markets today

At least the government saved us from the £6 million cost of allowing 16 years old to vote though [HASHTAG]#everylittlehelps[/HASHTAG]
