Re: Brexit - Should I stay or should I go??

Two good articles on the subject:

Telegraph.

BBC.

Good quote from r/soccer: "Just look at the Pound my friend. Every player any British team wanted to buy just instantly got more expensive."

If Scotland does leave, does St. Andrew's Cross come out of the Union Jack?

This opens a HUGE can of worms. Lots of flags with the union jack. What's Australia gonna do? New Zealand? Some Canadian provinces? Cripes what's HAWAII going to do?

Nigel Farage is now taking credit for the weather.

Interesting that he is surrounded at his press conference by oldish white men. No women, no people browner than a light tan.

To put it in perspective, that's equivalent to a one day drop in the DJIA of 1582 points.

Cameron's gonna have a fun day.

Cameron isn't going down with the ship. Announces he will resign as PM.

The prime minister said he would meet with the European Council next week to explain the decision and begin the process toward the ultimate exit of the U.K. However, Cameron said such talks would be best undertaken by a new leader.

“I do not think it would be right for me to be the captain that steers our country to its next destination,” he said.

Sky News says the London market may not even open today.

Global markets taking a nosedive everywhere.

Congratulations on a step forward towards liberty, and a blow to the New World Order. Sure, these will be tried again, and Bilderberg will probably double down their efforts. A chance for a better tomorrow is why these are fought. Also, anyone notice how this had the highest voter turnout in the UK within this decade? That alone speaks volumes.

Now, if Americans can stop being distracted by bathrooms and start focusing on supporting the Brits by action in their better tomorrow...

It's called a buying opportunity. As Jim Cramer says, "What does this have to do with the earnings of Bristol-Myers?"

Nice shout out, Flag, but what do you mean by that in terms of specific policy choices?

You mean, like a HuffPo staff meeting?

This billion level freakout that's going on is quite hilarious. Like their whole world has been shattered and now the armies of darkness will march over it all.

The problem here is that the EU became too much and used its benefits as a means of extracting away other things that the nations themselves may not want. Basically it became a dare. The English are the first one to take up the dare and now we will see what happens.

Basically, the Brits are tired of unelected mandarins in Brussels telling what they can and can't do.

Hmmmm.....that sounds familiar!

Nigel is not the UK government. IIRC he's not even UKIP anymore.

There's one other thing happening you probably won't see again in quite a while: Alex Jones and the Infowars site are jubilant. Yes, I used those words in the same sentence without any sort of negative verb descriptor.

Get rid of the EU parliament and go back to the common market??
