    Yes I voted out, yes I was concerned about the immediate effect on the economy, yes I feared what it would do to us over the initial months but my vote to exit was for the hope that this country will be a better place to live in 5+ years time than it would have been had we remained.

    Bumpy ride ahead but Leeds fans should be used to bumpy rides...

    Next pole to see if the majority of FOOTBALL fans want to LEXIT (get Leeds out of the FA)

    Just think, if we had MEXIT at the same time the wallies would have something like a 5% chance of winning something in a two horse race :emoticon-0148-yes:

    I didn't think we were stupid enough to have done this.
    Forget short term effects because ther is going to be a blood bath but judge this over time.
    Here a few measures to consider.

    1. Does unemployment go up
    2. Does immigration go down
    3. Do you end up better off financially


    If the **** hits the fan comfort yourselves with the fact that we voted for it. Me, you all know my plans and like este and mighty I won't be here to see it.

    None of us have a crystal ball Chippy, nobody is wrong or right, in 5 years time we will have no idea still if it was right or wrong to vote exit, we won't know if we would have been better or worse off.

    What we will know is our own politicians can be held responsible, no more hiding and blaming European red tape. It is up to us as a nation now to make this the right decision.

    Think of the positives, no more Eurovision Song Contest ;)

    As it stands I am worth 5-10% less than I was last night, but so are you.
    As with all you brexiteers your positive won't happen. We will still be in the bloody song contest.

    I might buy a season ticket. Itll be cheaper to travel to Leeds games than to watch on SKY. Will need to bring the grub and drink with me though

    Less than what? Your money is still in your bank and worth just as much as it was yesterday. Maybe not o/seas, but if that's the case, stay home. easy.

    The Cockney's can thank the Northern people for the UK's exit from the corrupt EU.
