Everybody outside of probably a very very few idiots in france and germany dislike the institutions as developed myself included. They have gone a little too far basically but the vote was not about protect it was a straight question. in or out. and thinking you were just protesting as i'm hearing from some is incomprehensible to me.
FFS Corbyn still won't stand down after losing a vote of confidence 170 to 40

i'm surprised so many on here are surprised that so many people voted with no or very little knowledge - don't you talk to people ?
if i try and discuss politics with the majority of people i know most say "not interested in politics" or similar and if they do their lack of knowledge of some basic issues is scary and yet these are reasonably well educated people with decent jobs
yes and no... I'm not really shocked but i just find it extremely dim to vote one way with reading what you are voting.
Euro clearing, bank watchdog to leave London after Brexit
According to a Reuters report, the EU will move its London-based bank regulator to Paris or Frankfurt after Britain chose to leave the EU.
The news agency cites a senior official as saying the ECB will also insist euro clearing occurs in the eurozone.
Here's the latest from Reuters:
While the decisions must still be agreed, the choice of France and Germany for the European Banking Authority would dash Italy's hopes of hosting the regulator in Milan.
Upholding ECB policy on clearing houses, a policy Britain has already successfully challenged at the European Union's second-highest court, could diminish the influence of London's financial sector.
"The multi-currency union narrative is over. That's why you will see the European Banking Authority going either to Paris or to Frankfurt," the official said.
The EBA, which writes and coordinates banking rules across the bloc, is expected to be relocated soon, two EU officials told Reuters immediately after the British referendum result.
"That's why you can be sure the ECB will install its location policy now. Not tomorrow, not in two weeks, but this is going to happen over the next two years," the official said, referring to a policy that euro clearing houses should be based in the single currency area.

uropean markets enjoy robust gains following brutal two-day rout
European bourses enjoyed solid gains today, bouncing back from torrid losses, as markets shrugged off a nasty Brexit hangover.
By close:
Here's what Mr Mahony had to say:
"Today has seen a welcome reprieve from the incessant fear and risk aversion that has dominated financial markets since Friday’s unexpected referendum result. The question on everyone’s lips is whether we have seen an end to the selling, with many seeing current prices as an opportunity to buy their favourite firms at a temporary discount.
"Given how international the FTSE 100 index is, it makes sense that some are affected more than others. With the relatively sharper deterioration of the FTSE 250 index highlighting that those closer to home have more to fear from this result. This selloff is unlikely to be over and perhaps the only thing that will truly raise risk appetite for good will be a faint glimmer of hope that we could see a second referendum."

Obviously thats a quote but that headline
. Some more neutral quoting there. Ftse 250 finished highest with a 3.5% rise after the article infers its still taken a hammering (for today)
Obviously thats a quote but that headline
I just posted them as they fell rather than sought out one side or other. The fact is banks have been hammered but hopefully good companies who look a bargain out there have stabilised in this buying.
Hopefully there won't be another shock.
Across Europe it's a good day
I'm glad you've explained this.
Not having ever watched Game of Thrones I hitherto had no idea what you were on about.

Yes, Boris just burned Corbyn to death and took over. Cameron little scheme got him nowhere and Merkel is coming for us all.
I
not sure what presumably PKK or IS attacks in Turkey have to do with Brexit
Well, considering the Brexiters were openly claiming that Rotherham, Orlando and Rochdale were all the fault of EU immigration I think that's rich.
Not all of them. About the same proportion of Remainers who'd blame the Istanbul attacks on Brexit.
