That woman in the crowd saying the Leave vote was about economics was hilarious. Good joke.

 

[Plum]

How the fuck are these people not talking about the economic fallout of the past few days, not mention what the EU is going to do and where the fuck is Boris?

I said above. Nobody knows what the fuck to do. We're STILL just fighting the campaign that was there last week.

 

[Protome]

Did somebody unplug Salmond?

 

[Real Hero]

Abbot has been fine

 

[Faddy]

"We're not gonna refight the campaign, Paul"

That's all they can do. Because nobody knows what the fuck to do now.

Yes. As Leave had no clear plan after winning there is no clear way forward.

The Tories are going to want a Norwegian/Swiss model with access to the Common Market, protections for London and they are going to give continue with freedom of movement, following EU law and paying towards the EU.

 

[HazySaiyan]

That woman in the crowd saying the Leave vote was about economics was hilarious. Good joke.

The idea that it wasn't solely about immigration for A LOT of voters is just laughable. Listening to the rhetoric from some of these people will tell you that.

 

[Roland_Gunner]

This was very much the feeling of everyone in my office Friday. We all like the British and wish we had national healthcare, a smaller military, etc. Everyone was confused and disappointed that people we generally think of as being more civilized would do such a thing.

hasn't had an opportunity for bloated scotisfaction for a few minutes.

 

[cormack12]

Remain are a fucking horror bag of a show here. Seem to be more careful about not upsetting anyone that voted Leave than actually debating their opposing standpoint.

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Salmond is the sane one here..

 

[Faddy]

Sorry for electing people who are effective leaders

 

[RK9039]

LOL Salmond going in.

 

[Protome]

Goddamn, the faces of the whole Leave panel when Salmond said that.

Abbot has been fine

She fell over herself a bit. Dimbleby quickly dropped it though.

That's been Remain for months. Not a single charismatic figure, not a single strong presentation of the copious amounts of good arguments. Never been so disappointed with my representatives in my life.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

Can Scotland just annex the rest of the UK? I'm so ready for Prime Minister Sturgeon.

 

[Zaph]

Salmond dropping truth bombs.

Leave has no position to negotiate from, because their wishes are completely unworkable.

 

[SymbiantXenos]

Anyone paraphrase what Salmond said. Not watching atm

 

[dealer-]

Good lord, some of the questions are terrible.

 

[Plum]

This fucking leave cunt talking right now.

He has no goddamn clue.

 

[SlipperyFishes]

This fucking leave cunt talking right now.

He has no goddamn clue.

Just fuck this country's shit up right now.

Fuck off Brit-Obelix.

Edit: not you Plum

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

oh my god

 

[Plum]

Fuck off Obelix.

What?

EDIT: Ah. I've only been listening to it.

 

[Meguro]

"Stop complaining about the result that potentially fucks the countrys future for a century"
Yeah buddy. Just take it all lying down.

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

What?

He looks like obelix.

 

[cormack12]

Tin foil hat 'they said there would be nuclear war'
'Who?'
'All of them, the whole remain team'.

Panel looks bemused at gibbering buffoon. Sure it's Boris in disguise.

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Salmond is literally little finger right now. lol

 

[Protome]

Anyone paraphrase what Salmond said. Not watching atm

He basically just pointed out that the Leave campaign had no plan and didn't actually expect to win. Then everyone on the Leave side nodded and looked really flustered.

 

[Palculator]

Fucking muppets, the lot of them.

Ah ok thanks.

 

[ghst]

Salmond is literally little finger right now. lol

more of a thumb.

 

[RK9039]

Salmond stop it! you're making too much sense.

 

[chromatic9]

Fucking hell what have we done?

The story at the top is disgusting.

Really horrific. Probably innocent people but I would warn we don't have the full story of the incident.

We do in the UK have some serious eastern European gangs with guns and knives and some very outspoken extremely cocky east European workers who like to take advantage of EU laws and brag to English people and play up to the foreign stereotype and also have a very high sense they are stronger and more well bred than English and they like to show it and seem up for fights. Under the current climate it sadly would be a time for payback if any eastern European did anything like this, the English xenophobics feel a bit braver. Before they'd feel they can't answer back. Not saying this has happened but English louts and Russians Polish are an extremely bad mix, more so than Asian or black people.

 

[Flintty]

I don't like that Paul Nuttel. Brexit government? You mean a UKIP government then. Fuck off.

 

[Protome]

Salmond stop it! you're making too much sense.

He was a terrible SNP leader but he is really good at this kind of thing.

 

[Zaph]

Salmond continuing to ask the obvious question - now what?

All the Leave guy can say is "I want a Brexit government!", but not him of course. Keep passing that buck.

 

[Meguro]

"They need us more than we need them"
Is this guy delusional?
Whaaaat is this panel.

 

[Kadayi]

This referendum should never have happened. People are saying "that's democracy", "the will of the people has spoken", "if we don't see this vote thru we can't pontificate about democracy to countries like China" and similar justifcations for sticking to the outcome. I can't help but feel these people don't understand the profound consequences leaving will have on future generations. What's even more frustrating is that this vote was won on blatant lies, ignorance and a dislike of foreigners.

The out result has only fuelled nationalism and made open racism mainstream again. If I was a foreigner looking to work or study in England, I'd be looking elsewhere. Leaving the EU just has disaster written all over it, yet we're following it thru because " that's democracy". I don't get it, we know the UK will be worse off as a nation outside of the EU, but we will rigidly stick to the outcome because we pride ourself on being democratic - even if it makes the nation worse off. Will people still be proud to live in a democracy when England is nothing but small isolated island and their children have been condemned to poorer living standards/economic hardship and the far-right have a stronger foothold in mainstream politics?

Clinging to the principle that the people have spoken and we have to respect seems absurd in this case especially when a lot of those people are utterly ignorant.
It's such a profound life changing decision that won't make us better off. Imo, the very desire to seperate ourselves has already done irreversible damage to our reputation and perception on the world stage. Will anyone actually give a flying fucking about respecting democracy when life in the UK goes downhill? Leaving isn't going to help the people who wanted to leave as they will also bear the brunt of the economic side-effects. By leaving such people have only opted to plunge themselves into more hardship. Is all of this worth it tho just so we can cling onto our principle of democracy?
We know this isn't a great idea and yet we're going ahead because a bunch of thick people "want their country back" and we have to respect it because that's democracy man. It's like the religious fanatic who blows himself because he will not be moved from his beliefs - we're clinging to democracy in the same way.

[Real Hero]

Nuttal wants rid of the nhs

 

[Burai]

Oh I know.

I just thought they'd like, you know, not start leaking out they actually didn't have a plan.

Wonder how Farage is bricking it too.

He'll be rubbing his hands. UKIP will clean up when the Tories don't deliver the closed borders and jobs he promised.

 

[Plum]

"German Car Manufacturers"

Is this ALL they have to negotiate with? Are we really gambling our future on fucking Audi and BMW?

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Like lambs to slaughter.

 

[Plum]

Like lambs to slaughter.

Good analogy, but personally I see it as turkeys voting for Christmas to spite the farmer.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Just turned it off. These questions and answers are absolutely awful (minus Salmond).

 

[Xando]

Leave voter talking about loving your neighbor

The irony is so strong

 

[ghst]

hearing diane abbot talk is like watching a pisshead negotiate some stairs.

 

[Meguro]

Yup turning it off.
Love your neighbours but fuck the EU and immigrants.

 

[kharma45]

hearing diane abbot talk is like watching a pisshead negotiate some stairs.

The day she retires as an MP I will rejoice.

 

[SlipperyFishes]

Abbot is saying "let's respect the will of the people"

The people were sold on lies.
