    The vote was for whether we wanted to remain in the EU or not, not whether we should close our borders.
    The leave campaign chose to throw in the immigration angle because it knew it would gain the thick **** vote (lot of those in the UK), it was a dirty tactic, but one I am glad it employed, purely because it got Leave the win.
    But its their own fault, these xenophobes, if they couldn't see it a mile off, it's their own fault for being stupid.
    Every time Johnson, or any of the leave camp was asked about lowering migration, they all went quiet, blushed and went all coy.
    I thought the way they acted in the debate when pushed on immigration was going to cost leave the win, luckily it didn't.

    If that's the way it pans out, then the Tories will be out of office for a decade, as their core support was apparently over 70% for Leave, and immigration was one of the prime reasons why - that and Sovereignty - if they deliver a deal that has free movement I'll ****ing piss myself.

    I hope they do to be honest.
    Free movement is a good thing.
    Anyone who tries to paint it as anything else is clearly missing a brain cell or 10.

    I also hope the tories ARE out of office for a decade, swindling ****s....all of em.

    Freedom of movement (as it is) will end for EU people coming to the UK, dont think otherwise, all PM (elects) have said as such.
    May and Gove has said, they cant guarantee the EU people here now (But I hope they can stay) but its all part of the deals that will be sorted.

    Not if we want to keep access to the single market it wont be.
    Any deal we work out with the EU that doesn't include free movement will see us get raped on trade tariffs and will send our economy into the toilet.

    That's because it's all news to them. They thought it was just a case of voting out, closing the borders and carrying on as normal. They had no idea that deals would need to be negotiated or that the EU wasn't obliged to give in to the demands of Nigel.

    You give up easily.
    If everybody gave up as soon as a statement was made then they would have to give up everything they ever had.

    Let me try to explain it to them.....

    You see lots of the things we buy, food, clothing, electrical goods, are made abroad, in other countries, we import a lot of this stuff from other countries, at a cost, so that we can buy them from our shops (Morrisons, Argos, New Look etc). We also make a lot of stuff in this country that we export out to other countries in Europe.

    Now, in order for all of Europes countries to get a better price on their imported goods, the EU created a single market so that tax prices on such imports would be considerably lower. Meaning that retailers pay less for them, so the price you pay in the shops when you buy your banana's, your jeans, or in Treble's case, his 14" rubber double ended dildos :)p), is lower.

    Now, the progressive folk in the EU decided that, in order to entice countries to allow free movement of EU citizens among member states, the countries who allowed free movement would get the best rate when it came to trade deals, and those who refused, get raped.....

    Now we have elected to leave the EU, we need to agree to a Fair Trade Agreement with the remaining EU member states, as an outside nation.
    If we keep Free movement, we keep our great import prices.
    If we refuse it, then import taxes shoot through the roof, meaning that when you buy your bananas, or your 14" Rubber, double ended dildos, you will pay a ****ING hideous price for it, since inevitably the cost of said increase is going to be passed on to the consumer (that's you by the way).
    So unless you want to pay £2.50 per banana, £80 for a pair of Matalan Jeans, and a tenner for a tube of Ky Jelly (am looking at you Trebs :p) then we need to keep free movement......

    Does that help at all?
    I tried to keep it as simple as possible.

    .. Nigel has come to his senses ... he's cut his ties with UKIP and will now remain as an MEP ... he's even changed his name by deed poll to Nigel Fromage to underline just how much he will be embracing the 'One European Family' ethos ... his wife has pledged to support him in his 'new direction' but has no intentions of giving up her stilletto heeled jackboots ... (allegedly)
