[Archived] Eu Referendum, In Or Out - Looks Like Blackburn Wants Out !

[dave birch]

Well Greece should never have been admitted according to the EU criteria. But their govt. (along with Goldman Sachs) cooked the books.

Having said that the ECB policies haven't helped. I'm waiting for Yanis Varoufakis to have his 2 cents.

Is he back in Melbourne?

It's starting already, Wilders in Holland, and the NF in France wanting their say.

[pg]

Yanis was in London hanging out with Brian Eno appearing at a Pro-EU function the last time I saw him on Twitter.

The horrible things the derided experts are already coming true.

You went to bed in the 5th largest economy in the world and woke up in the 7th.

£ already down 10% and the markets aren't open yet...

I'd go back to bed Philip. The next few days and weeks are going to be full of rhetoric and uncertainty. Things will level out, once the shouting stops and people realise that the sun still keeps rising every morning.

[Norbert Rassragr]

Well, it isn't what I wanted (reverse the percentages for my ideal situation), but people may have voted for fewer rights at work, longer hours, more austerity and more tax breaks for billionaires.

It is democratic, and we must respect the result.

[joey_big_nose]

Pandoras box is now open.

New election to be called

Scotland certain to leave UK

New deep long recession

10 year trade deal negotiation nightmare

Severe regret to kick in circa Christmas

Wow just heard on radio 52/48 so far to leave eu. Did not see that yesterday as the odds were 1/12 to remain. Frankly the best result for me would be never hearing about this referendum again after today but now it could happen quite like the idea. As a brucie bonus that pig head shagging @#/?s position must be untenable. Suppose over to boris which is mental in itself. Still either better than that terrorist sympathiser.

[Tom]

Very worried, genuine congratulations to those that wanted it people took a Stand to make a change I just fear it's a bad one.

On a very insular level I worry about my future in my job and my shares are done for!

I think you're quite right Stuart things will level out and there will be stability. The problem though is where that levelling out is. It seems likely, based on initial reactons, the levelling out will be with a weaker currency, devalued stock market and an economy unsure of where it is headed.

It has been nice to read a thread without a Chaddy or Abbey outburst

Surely this only indicates that there will be huge potential for future growth?

It's a self-fulfilling prophesy though, Paul. Confidence in the pound has dropped because everyone said it would.

In other news, I've just discovered (thanks Mr Radio-4-talking-head) that Britain voted out because of non-intellectual, slacker, racists - but only the English. Interesting that these products of the last 43 years of ECM / EU membership has produced such degenerates. Makes you wonder how that could happen in such a wonderful community.

[Baz]

The news regarding the pound, and share prices is extremely worrying.

It will bounce back somewhat eventually, given we are at the point of greatest uncertainty, but it could be years - if ever.

Just seen Diane Abbott on bbc saying that labour have turned out 'their vote' a phrase which horrifies me, talk about arrogance.

[yeti-dog]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Most intelligent quote you've made all week...

Very, very disappointing result. Narrow minded and short sighted. I sincerely hope we don't live to regret this.

[ABBEY]

and still they try to wind me up....

I don't agree re the £ Stuart a currency is only worth what people are prepared to pay.

On the second paragraph who are you talking about?

The real culprits are the arrogant and intransigent mandarins in Brussels.

Yet again the British have stood up against the bully.

Blackburn voted 56% out 44% in so the thread title is correct.

The "markets" aim when it opens will be to protect it's own interest at the expense of me and you.

[adopted scouser]

Fabulous day

[Claytons Left Boot]

We're the new Norway. Ten million tonnes of concrete have just been poured into the channel tunnel and the drawbridge up above has been pulled up. Rule Britannia!!

I didn't vote by the way.

[RibbleValleyRover]

FTSE taking an absolutely hammering already. UK about to lose its triple AAA credit rating which will make borrowing much more expensive.

It wasn't Project Fear, it was Project Truth.

Talk Cameron is going to resign, market reaction will be even worse.

[T J Hooker]

Fabulous day

First(and probably last) time we're going to agreebon something

[perthblue02]

Cameron resigning

[RibbleValleyRover]

Looking at a future with a PM Boris. God help us all.

[Paul]

FTSE down 10%. Some banks down 30%.

Cameron walks meaning the Leave campaign have to clear up the mess. Anyone want to name a Conservative politician in the leave camp capable of running the country?
