How on earth will we cope?

A country that won 2 world wars, started the industrial revolution and ruled a global empire is suddenly meek and helpless without it's neighboring countries to help

It's a wonder we got this far.

Death to the EU, it's just Germany trying to rule Europe with a dollar instead of a gun

f*** em

Daniel Hannan backtracks over importance of curbing EU free movement

[Tweet Link]

We'll be seeing more of this. itll be painted as only accepting those we need but governments will simply decide we 'need' hundreds of thousands in a whole range of ocupations as its in the political classes interests to do so. the EU was just useful cover for letting people in, as it was for many other problems caused by our own governments. the penny will drop soon enough and people will see that they've been f***ed over. in the mean time we'll all get to enjoy a crap economy. This 'whoopy we've done it' mentality will give way to a sobering reality. There were many reasons to vote in or out but expectations of some are way off.

Well Little England doesn't have the same ring to it. Maybe you BREXITERs need a new anthem for the reduced nation - how about this

On a summer day
In the month of May
A burly bum came hiking
Down a shady lane
Through the sugar cane
He was looking for his liking
As he roamed along
He sang a song
Of the land of milk and honey
Where a bum can stay
For many a day
And he won't need any money

Oh the buzzin' of the bees
In the cigarette trees
Near the soda water fountain
At the lemonade springs
Where the bluebird sings
On the big rock candy mountain

There's a lake of gin
We can both jump in
And the handouts grow on bushes
In the new-mown hay
We can sleep all day
And the bars all have free lunches
Where the mail train stops
And there ain't no cops
And the folks are tender-hearted
Where you never change your socks
And you never throw rocks
And your hair is never parted

Oh the buzzin' of the bees
In the cigarette trees
Near the soda water fountain
At the lemonade springs
Where the bluebird sings
On the big rock candy mountain

Oh, a farmer and his son,
They were on the run
To the hay field they were bounding
Said the bum to the son,
"Why don't you come
To that big rock candy mountain?"
So the very next day
They hiked away,
The mileposts they were counting
But they never arrived
At the lemonade tide
On the big rock candy mountain

Oh the buzzin' of the bees
In the cigarette trees
Near the soda water fountain
At the lemonade springs
Where the bluebird sings
On the big rock candy mountain

Rue Little England
Little England delusional about its power
with the few boats it has left on the waves
Little England never never never
shall be slaves
but will accept the increasing use of zero hour contracts which is the same thing really

We need to adapt to changing times.

As that great liberal newspaper The Sun said in 1992...

'Last one out turn off the lights'

How right (in both senses) they have been proved to be.

ive got a full cock thanks . your fund is 10% up probably because of the big rise in gold , unless your fund manager went short the stock market and mark to market the fund will show a big rise . if he has covered his shorts and looking to buy dips that was a very canny move if in your opinion the stock market will recover , which I doubt and that's coming from someone with pensions , and various other investments .

you could have got 15/1 on brexit an hour after the polls closed , perhaps your gloating about the whole thing grated on me , good luck with your ivestments any way
