While immigration was a huge factor in the vote, I don't think it has much to do with isis/ Islamophobia. It's been about the number of people coming in to the UK from Europe.

All your old people screwed you over. Time to kick your grandparents to the curb.
People who won't even be around to see the damage they've done.
You should lose the right to vote at 60.
This is why Remain lost.

I am expecting riots in some of the big cities because of this. No doubt a protest will soon lay siege to Westminster.

This is so great.
All of my life GB voted against anything that made sense regarding EU politics and always acted like the USs little pet dog.
Good bye GB, you won't be missed from my side..

No one knows, as this has never happened before.
28% of this country didn't vote. The blame for this lands very much at their feet.

Someone in the other thread mentioned that he called for the vote out of sheer ego. Is it true?
I'm reading up on UK government atm, but I haven't got that far yet.

Isn't the Euro going down, too?
Or you are paying with US-Dollars. Then it's your chance, now.

You put 'brown people' in quotation marks, but you're not quoting anyone. And I don't think the Leave voters actually cast a ballot for "burn country to the ground." You can double down on arguing that people who disagree with you are stupid or racist, but that didn't seem to win you the vote you wanted.
I don't live in the UK, so you can do what you please. I just don't think this is the smartest tactic.
Instead, you might want to examine the legitimate fears and anxiety over immigration, especially from certain areas of the world, and then formulate better policy decisions based on that.
Not really we voted no because of the ukrainian deal it gave more power to company's and make everything worse it's a long list not going to name it now, still our government doesn't listen en EU doesn't listen either and we clearly said no.
My father did and we've had many arguments about it in the past and many more to come. He also reads the Daily Mail but denies he pays attention to any of it.

How would they counter inflation without increasing rates?
Many goods are not set based on the local market and the drop in value of the pound (increasing costs of import) and the increasing taxes on imports (increasing costs of import) simply will make things cost more (i.e., inflation).
My parents are pissed off. Spoke to my dad on the phone, he said he's not watching the TV in order to avoid the floppy haired cunt (obviously Boris).
Worrying about my inheritance now (as are they) as it's tied in euro business on my grandparents side. A lot of the money is in Geneva, so we are ok for that (as the GBP will recover) but the money tied in business may take a big hit.
I could lose near enough a hundred grand which is a bit of a piss take. Need to speak to my grandparents (the ones that voted remain, my others voted out)

UK's membership contribution was, nominally, £350m. Farage claimed if we left, that could go towards the NHS. That was a blatant lie, because the UK negotiated special conditions when we originally entered the EU that gave us a rebate, so that the actual amount was about £200m less. Farage has now admitted it was a lie.

Why do so many people expect a economic crash? UK will join the European Free Trade Association like Switzerland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Island. All these countries have a wealthy and growing economy. It's almost impossible to leave the EU in less than 2 years and to negotiate all conditions.
Because the leave campaign have said they are happy for him to stay to try to calm the markets and show solidarity

Yeah. If the cost-price shock from exit is greater than the reduced demand from a recession, we'll see inflation. The bank can't exactly increase rates during a recession, after all.
Come to NZ, it's like Australia but better
I emigrated there from France with my family when I was 15 and it's probably the best thing my parents have ever done for me.Emigrating to either country isn't easy though unless you have a desirable job
What control does Farage have over this anyway?
