There's still enough for London to sway it right? London IS the EU capital in the UK, so we're expecting like 90% Remain there and due to London being the largest place in the UK, that's gotta smack them back into the lead.

Infact, I bet that's what they're doing, saving London til last and when it looks like Brexit has won, be all, REMAIN MOTHERFUCKER in a single area to tip it back.

It appears we're set to be in the economic shitter for quite a while now. No timeline or details as to what trade deals will be formed, loss of scientific research funding and collaborative projects, and handing over important issues such as workers and human rights over to a conservative majority (that won't bite us in the arse at all) And this will pretty much be an end to the UK, due to Scotland overwhelmingly voting to remain.

And for what exactly? Due to fear of the scary immigrants, when most come from outside the EU and are net contributors to the economy. Complaining about it being undemocratic, with MEPs that we elect, but have no problem at all closer to home with an unelected upper house and monarchy. The sad thing is a lot of people that have voted for this will have little to no knowledge on these issues and the consequences that will soon follow. Hurray for ignorance and intolerance.

Yup. And several people in this thread are a part of it. Burned down their own country out of ignorance, and all they can think to say is "stop being mean to us" as if what they're doing isn't FAR fucking worse than some mean words being thrown around. The cognitive dissonance is staggering.

Declan Kearney, a Northern Ireland Assembly member for Sinn Féin, says his party will push for a poll on whether Northern Ireland should stay in the UK or unite with the Republic of Ireland if the UK votes to leave the EU.
Declan Kearney BBC He says it will be "completely undemocratic" if the majority of people in Northern Ireland vote Remain but are "drawn out of the EU as a result of being carried on the coat-tails" of voters in England.
"Sinn Féin will continue to press... for a border poll under the provisions of the Good Friday Agreement, because this (EU Referendum) will demonstrate palpably a dramatic change in the political landscape of the north," he says.

This is genuinely depressing it, I mean I already barely had any faith in my fellow Brits after they elected the Tory party in twice but this is a whole new level of WTF?!

Why is this making me feel a Trump may actually get elected?

This should be the thing we point to any time anybody says it's unthinkable Trump gets elected because he's all senseless talk and people won't fall for his shit. Even when the polls say sanity will win out, sometimes it loses.

Wouldn't shock me. The Tories need a greater majority to govern effectively and they need good governance right now.

The signature list of MPs was in case of Remain vote they back him and showed they would back him either way whilst if there's a Leave vote he can simply resign and say it's his own decision.

I expect better than empty claims they know nothing about the EU.

...still, better than the direct insults. People should be ashamed of themselves.

Fucking behave yourself. The whole campaign was run and the fear of immigrants just like we've been fed sensationalist headlines for years about the very same thing from the likes of The Sun and other worthless rags. Whilst it would be silly to tar everybody with the same brush I'd bet my life that a vast majority of people voting out are doing so on the basis of immigration and immigration alone.

Your messing with peoples livelihoods and future prospects and yet here you are throwing around the word ''ashamed'', no if anybody should be ashamed it's people voting out without knowing the facts.

I've noticed that "brown people" has been a real meme for Remainers. They parrot this specific wording all the time.

To be fair, a lot of this stuff on the internet is from people who aren't even British and don't know the first thing about British or even European politics.

Am I wrong to wonder why this was put to a democratic vote in the first place? Why would they expect everyone to know the economic intricacies of leaving the European Union?
