It will when she is in a nursing home being looked after being people who hate her guts.
Lol democracy. Its the best thing we got but you simply cannot let the people decide this shit. Too many people just dont care/know enough to decide on a vote of this magnitude. What a joke its going to hurt the UK alot more than it will hurt us. And frankly i dont even care anymore i feel sorry for the people that voted remain but for the rest of you..good luck.

I'm hoping that some good can come out of this and the Bernie or Bust people see how stupid and potentially ruinous that shit is.

Like I said in another thread, when young people don't vote, they are asking others who are on their way out to decide the rest of their lives for them. This tweet needs to be plastered on every bus in the UK, US, and and every other Engish speaking country.

Derp. Nice going.
Yep.
It's more the sentiment than the source that counts, IMO.
Pretty much.
Old people were a mistake. Unbelievable.
Amazingly apt.

Should have been Cameron's speech today.
That's not why Arnold won. Grey Davis did a horrible job with the Electricity crisis that Enron fucked California with. Davis signed a horrible deal with inflated rates to get a stable supply because Enron was fucking with the grid so much that it was causing blackouts.
Grey Davis won relection because the Republicans refused to nominate a centrist despite great discontent with Davis. Then the recall happened and they was Arnold best chance to run and win since he didn't have to do a primary. So he won. Arnold government was pretty bipartisan drawing in Republican and Democratics to his cabinet. The main reason his years were fucked because California required a super majority to pass a budget and the Republican side wouldn't budge on shit until the after the budget was due which forced California to borrow millions of dollars each year just to cover the budget. That also fucked with California credit rating to the point it was in the toilet. And the Republican side of the legislature still didn't care.
Anyway. Arnold actually had a pretty good relationship with the Democrats in the CA legislature as well.
A vote for Arnold wasn't a "lol vote". Despite the revisionist history going on here
#Carlin2016
considering i just saw in succession a thumbs up with the British flag pasted over it that says with text:
"its amazing what happens when the working class stands up to the establishment elites."
from Breitbart
and
"#Brexit 2016: UK Votes for Independence and National Sovereignty... Good Call" with the good call text posted over a picture of George Washington et al presumably signing the Declaration of Independence posted by Steven Crowder
tells me all i need to know about the vote and its results.

THE POWER OF BUTTERSCOTCH BOTTOMS
all i can hear is
I got my country back I'm not going ____ ____ humiliating
That has to be it
"I've got my country back, I'm not going to be here longer, I'm nearly 80...so I don't really care about the younger generations future they can deal with the fallout on their own."
I may have added my own interpretation at the end, but that is what it sounded like.

I got my country back. I'm not going to be here much longer I'm nearly 80.
Basically I won and I don't care if it fucks over everyone else because I'll be dead, a dead racist

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
It sure did enough here
So Cornwall.
The non-white British people living in the England aren't going anywhere tho. These fools are clinging on to a nostalgic vision of an all white England that will never come back.
They're not stupid, they know exactly what they voted for. They just want the next 20 years they have left to have as few foreigners in it as possible.And don't forget (posted in the leave thread):

A quote from a 19 yr old male I work with
"I just voted for the one my dad told me to vote for."
Leave.
Fuck the older generation.

Nope, that sounds about right, he helped fuck up his country's future so he could spend 5 minutes living in the delusion of Britain being an immigrant-free paradise.

What else is there to say?
Are people surprised that these kind of people exist? Look at what the masses in England are enamoured with these days - brain dead TV programmes and social media. We live in culture where people are "famous" for watching TV (goggle box).It's all about being famous and not very bright. I feel like the level of intelligence in England has really dropped off in the last decade.
Everyone seems to be morbidly obsessed with dumb celebrities, selfies and getting noticed online. So people not giving a shit about their vote and telling everyone else about it doesn't surprise me. It's all part of being an attention seeker - they get their 2 minutes on national news which they will then share across social media.

British Lose Right to Claim That Americans Are Dumber
LONDON (The Borowitz Report)Across the United Kingdom on Friday, Britons mourned their long-cherished right to claim that Americans were significantly dumber than they are.
Luxuriating in the superiority of their intellect over Americans has long been a favorite pastime in Britain, surpassing in popularity such games as cricket, darts, and snooker.
But, according to Alistair Dorrinson, a pub owner in North London, British voters have done irreparable damage to the most enjoyable sport this nation has ever known: namely, treating Americans like idiots.
When our countrymen cast their votes yesterday, they didnt realize they were destroying the most precious leisure activity this nation has ever known, he said. Wankers.
In the face of this startling display of national idiocy, Dorrinson still mustered some of the resilience for which the British people are known. This is a dark day, he said. But I hold out hope that, come November, Americans could become dumber than us once more.

This is like a weird fusion of Idiocracy and Children Of Men.
Unsurprised.
I worked as a student poll clerk for the AV referendum in 2011 and most voters were clueless from the conversations I had. Marking ballots on a whim.
However, the age statistics in Brexit votes (the older the more leave votes) suggests xenophobia is more responsible than ignorance.

Yeap, and the best part. (Tidbits from the leave thread, but worth it for those how haven't seen it yet)
Not sure if posted here already, but uptick in google searches of "What is the EU" post brexit vote in the UK...among other things.
