When it comes to 'suck it up' Chips, if I were you. I'd start puckering up. But let me warn you, and you can bookmark this, If your Government ignores this vote, a referendum of the people, you may well have a civil war on your hands, and I'm being quite serious. The people and the Crown vs Paliament. It happened four hundred year ago and it turned out you never had a parliament for years after that, and a dictator to boot.

True. One MP was murdered simply for her Remain views before the referendum, so its quite possible it could turn nasty.

Its more likely though they will try to get a formal LEAVE that is in reality not much different to being IN. The right wing of May's party are already getting twitchy about that.

Personally I don't see her saying - "ooh, we don't need to leave now because we've got control on people movement". But if she did, she'd need to get some of the Leave campaigners (Boris Johnson being a likely one, maybe Michael Gove too although he is not a friend of hers) to agree we'd now got what we needed, and she'd have to get political cover by then going for either another referendum or a general election. Some would still feel cheated if that all happened.

That's the only way I could see a second referendum happening.
 
FTSE 100 soars as business confidence JUMPS after Brexit - Surely not, I thought it was all going to come tumbling down ;)

and the number of tourists visiting the UK since Brexit is 18% higher than predicted - that is a massive number.

This increases is providing a huge boost to UK retailers, hotel and entertainment groups and has generated over 150,000 jobs.
The number of Brits holidaying at home has also risen by 11%,

I knew Brexit could do it, the strangleholds are disappearing........:emoticon-0148-yes:
 
Brexit will be like Ken Bates...

10 years from now there will be a hiccup or 'correction' in the housing market or the FTSE or "take your pick" and the remain voters will blame Brexit.

We ain't left yet....... And investors are making money on one last. Pre brexit boom.
Is it really too difficult for you to understand what's going on.
If it is this good with the knowledge that we are leaving imagine how much better it will get when we do actually leave and start kicking all those immigrants out ;) <ok>

See this is one of the previously unknown positives. Pound crashing against the Euro and Dollar looked bad in the press but reality is not bad at all.
 
You think it's going to take 9.5 years for us to leave then.
No but those voting remain are still scraping the barrel looking for reasons to justify they were right and Brexit was wrong. There is nothing at the bottom of the barrel and my guess is they will still be looking in the bottom of it 10 years from now. <ok>

Just imagine Cellino taking over as PM and sorting out Brexiit.

After a beautiful cigarette he will sell the NHS for £7 billion and replace it with the Ethiopian version.
Never fear though - he will offer all patients a 25% discount on their next appointment if they have to wait more than 6 hours!!

Isn't that just the same as any brexiteer claiming any good news is down to the vote whilst ignoring any negative indicators. There is much more going on than the daily mail lead headlines, and the truth is nobody knows what's going to happen because nobody knows what leaving will actually look like. Whatever happens it can't and won't all be to Britains advantage, nor will it all be to our disadvantage.

So, you're saying it's even handed then, Chips?





Bye the bye, BRITAIN'S was possessive, but that's just me being pedantic.

Ahh so you didn't mean those things you said on the first few pages <ok> ;)

I will mean them as soon as we actually leave, assuming we ever do.
We ain't gone yet, and as usual the speculator cnuts are playing the markets to their own advantages not uncertain times, that's not good for the rest of us.
 
But you told us last month that it had started,pound crashed,jobs lost almost the end of the world as we know it.Didn't make a massive fook up and get it all wrong did you.<whistle>

Pound has still crashed, more jobs would have been created if we had stayed in, as we ain't gone yet relocations of companies and redundancies hasn't really started yet. It will.
